MJ was the greatest of all-time and has multiple championship rings. Favre has one title and a long list of playoff implosions on his record. Favre was an ironman. MJ was the greatest ever. Favre may be the greatest drama queen of all-time though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-818120104790188682.post-72596466494032827242008-07-09T08:49:00.000-05:002008-07-09T08:49:00.000-05:00The mere fact that Brett is even causing this comm...The mere fact that Brett is even causing this commotion diminishes his accomplishments in my book. Just a few months ago, he left with grace and dignity, after a stellar career. I thought to myself "this guy IS the class act he has portrayed all these years!" He walked away at the top. Memorabilia was sold, tears were shed. Now it's no different than when Michael Jordan retired. Alot of hoopla, then he "unretired" and came back and played for another team in a mediocre fashion. Sad and pathetic.<BR/><BR/>Brett could have free reign: sports analyst, coach, whatever. But he needs to give his ego a rest and rethink this before he becomes just a shadow of his former self and joke fodder for late night TV. The media will eat him alive, and rightly so.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-818120104790188682.post-66209790563371584332008-07-09T08:24:00.000-05:002008-07-09T08:24:00.000-05:00You forgot option number four: just give him his u...You forgot option number four: just give him his unconditional release and be done with it.<BR/><BR/>I am sure the stuff happening behind closed doors includes the Packers trying to talk him out of it. He is not in their plans anymore. Planning for 2008 started the day after they lost to the Giants, and really picked up steam when Brett retired. They had a new QB, with new dynamics, and they began tailoring their team to Aaron Rodgers.<BR/><BR/>Brett has been out of the picture since March. Do you know how much planning has ocurred since then? Further, he missed two minicamps and all of the OTAs. That's about a month's worth of practice. Now he wants back? I'm sorry, the NFL just doesn't work that way.<BR/><BR/>I love Brett Favre more than anyone, and cheered harder for him than anyone else. But he retired, and now that Packers are taking a different road. Training camp starts in three weeks. There is no way, after all of the preparation that has been done in the off season without him, that he should look for a roster spot in Green Bay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
