My opinion on random issues...for whatever it is worth.
This Week: Trading Brett Favre
Excuse Me? Three time MVP? The one that got us to the Superbowl twice and was integral in winning one of them? Yeah...that guy. I think his name was Farve (intentionally misspelled) or something.
I mean, we may as well forget about the guy. We have written him off and left him for dead. Who needs him? We have Matt Hasselbeck as our savior.He will take us back to the promiseland, or at least give us a new backup quarterback to talk about.
The issue? A subpar season has placed Brett Favre on the trading block. No, the Packers are not dumb enough to do that, but many "fans" feel he should be traded. To them I would say that this is the same man you applauded for when he played hurt or scrambled away from tackles. He is the same man who more than once threw 35 TDs in a single season. This is the same man THAT WAS VOTED MOST VALUABLE PLAYER THREE YEARS IN A ROW! Get a grip people!
Have we forgotten the years of Lynn Dickey, Randy Wright, Don Majkowski (although he was good for a while), and Anthony Dilweg? We have an absolute superstar, and we dont treat him like one. Did the Bulls woes in attracting free agents not send a red flag to all that you'd better treat your superstars well? So what if the guy has a bad year. So what if he has two? Maybe even three wouldn't kill us. Our backup allstar is signed for three more anyway. I just think we owe the guy more than what we are giving him.
So to all that say Favre should be benched or traded, GET A CLUE.
