I’ve stayed away from commented on Brett Favre’s request for reinstatment for a reason. Simply put, I really don’t care if he stays or if he goes. BUT…I do have an opinion about it. lol
If I was a part of the Green Bay Packers organization, I’d let him comeback alas Michael Jordan, wearing the Four – Five (sing it like Jay Z) with another team. Brett held a press conference to announce his retirement..his wife was there, he cried, the fans were grief-stricken, ESPN ran coverage re: his career for an entire week, you get the picture. He said goodbye to the game that he loves, when all those around him ADVISED him not too. They knew what Brett didn’t, “he wasn’t ready to give up football.” But he did, so here we are.
Here’s my Top Five Reasons to let Brett Favre go:
- He plays maverick football when the games on the line. You can’t question his heart but I do question his decision-making ability. Check out how many INTs he’s thrown. Yea, yea, he funs to watch, but the smiles disappear, when you lose. I had him as my QB on fantasy football….hmph!
- Eventually the Packers and their fans have to move, and that time is now.
- What about Aaron Rodgers? If you bench him in favor of Favre this year, what happens when Brett decides to really leave the game? What does that say for loyalty and Aaron’s confidence.
- Brett was one game away from playing in the Super Bowl. The same team was intact for this upcoming season and yet and still, he decided to retire. The taste of victory wasn’t good enough?
- Get what you can, while you can. If he’s that’s valuable, let him sign with another team, and get as many draft picks as you can for Brett.
I think the top guns in Green Bay have decided to look ahead, instead of looking back and I don’t blame them, so slay me. Let him go already!
See if the cards are falling for you, play

You’re crazy! I say rebuild when you don’t have a current top five quarterback interested in playing for you for another year.
I get why their eager to test Rogers’ legs, but Green Bay is essentially saying this season is a wash and anything above making the playoffs is a bonus. With Favre you’re a contender for another year.
By the way, who in god’s name is Aaron Rogers? He sounds more like a fast food restaurant than a quarterback. Kidding aside, he may be great. But ask yourself, do you ever think he’ll be better than Favre? Not even Favre at his best, but Favre of last year? If yes, you’re kidding yourself.
Peace out!!
