Brett Favre

So Brett Favre has signed with the Vikings today continuing his career in the NFC North. I like that he came back and I have no qualms with his decision process. I understand why fans, experts, and other players can be tired of the media coverage the past five years, but why are you pissed at him? He didn't personally attack you. He has been giving the opportunity to play football again and has taken a different course of deciding his actions that maybe you or I would have taken. But he is still wanted. His jerseys still sell. He hopefully can still throw touchdowns and for that matter interceptions. He is turning the Vikings from almost contenders to serious NFC North material. So what if he didn't want to sign last month. The Vikings still want him. Somehow they got him. He got to miss out on a few weeks of training camp. Ouch. Who is hurt by this? Why are you complaining? A NFL great is still in the league. We have another chance to see Brett Favre shine. What is horrible about that? Aside from the Packers, Bears, Sage, and Tavaris being hurt by this I don't see why anyone should complain about Brett Favre being in the league or his process of deciding. The teams who wanted him allowed him to do that. If anyone should be complained about it should be every NFL who allowed him to flirt with the idea of coming out of retirement. It is an oppurtunity for the NFL, the fans, and the world to continue to see Brett dance around after touchdowns, carry wide outs on his shoulders, flick game winning touchdowns nonchalantly, scramble like a mad man, and have fun playing one of the most entertaining games out there. Who cares how we got there? We are there. Don't hate the player.
