Default Re: Farve NOT to stay retired

Just a thought....

The last two drives hes run in the playoffs, both NFC championship games, he threw two INTs, both of which cost his team a chance to win.

IMO the most overrated QB in the history of the NFL.

I hope he retires, I'm tired of his act, and his selfishness.

By his act....I assume you mean his MVP like season.... 33-7-4202 Taking his team to 12 wins and the NFC Championship game....


I am always a bit perplexed about why people wish for someone to retire when they are playing at the top of the game..... We are not talking Tony Dorsett with the Broncos.... BF had an AMAZING season.... Would you have preferred to have Tavaris under center....?

Look at it from this perspective:

The reason he wanted out of Green Bay was because they didn't trade for Randy Moss. So he pulled that retire, un-retire BS and put the Packers in a terrible spot. If they didn't let Rogers play, odds are he walks after one more season under Brett.

So he forces their hand, and they trade him grudgingly to the Jets. Farve goes, but he really wants to play for the Vikings, Packers won't allow that to happen and put in several clauses in the deal that will cost the Jets massive draft picks if they trade him to Minny. Favre leads the jets to 8-3, than basically falls apart, throwing pick after pick after pick. He continues to start every game, preserving his precious consecutive start streak. Jets miss the playoffs, and Favre retires. Jets trade up in the draft and get Mark Sanchez, needing salary cap, Favre tells the Jets, cut me, I'll sign a one day deal with the packers and retire a packer. He never does. He heads over to Minny after training camp is over. He worked the Jets into that move, suffer one year, get to get to your ultimate goal.

I will not take anything away from his talent. He has a great arm, and is tough as nails. People are saying "the vikes wouldn't be there without Brett."
I agree, but Brett also threw the game away, just like 3 years ago against the Giants in the NFC championship. Just like Five years ago to Vick and the Falcons. I've see him hand away more big games with stupid throws than hes won with great throws.
