Favre Be Da Boss!!!!

LOL, okay, what does it mean for pro football when a quarterback overrules a head coach?! Apparently that's what happened Sunday night during the Carolina Panthers and Minnesota Vikings game. The Vikings played HORRIBLY *snicker,* and apparently their coach tried to bench "Brett the purple dinosaur" (Barney's brother, hehe) in the third quarter. Well, Favre seemed to have had a massive BF and the benching thing didn't happen ya'll! Ultimately, the Vikings ended up losing the game with a deplorable score of 24-7. But, all in all, it's no real biggie that they lost, they are still 11-3 for the season so far and are definitely playoff bound. Heck, I'd say they are probably the STRONGEST team heading for the playoffs. That said, the coach, Brad Childress, was wrong, in my view. Why bench Favre just because in ONE game his offense was only able to garner 7 points? So the backup qb is gonna do better? Please, it's just one game! Sounds to me like the Childress and Favre have some "bad blood" between them. Well, if they didn't before, they certainly do NOW, haha. I'd also imagine that Favre pulling rank over the coach will not sit quite well with his fellow players....personally, even if he were right in theory, I still wouldn't like that dude. I say, 'twill be an interesting remainder of the season for the Vikings organization. Hmmmmmm....

Quality Quarterbacks!

Wowzer! Quarterbacks seem to be the rockstars and celebutantes of the NFL this football season. They have just been FULL of razzle dazzle. We have at least three of them already in the talks for MVP: Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, and Brett Favre. Two of those in the running are leading undefeated teams (Brees and Manning) and one of them has only had to nurse one loss (Favre). We have a comeback kid in the mix, as in Vince Young, who came back in the game to lead the zero-win Tennessee Titans to five wins in a row! ANd then we have a new face for the Pittsburgh Steelers that I must say played a first NFL start impressive game. That new kid on the block is Dennis Dixon. A few busts in the mix like Mark Sanchez, Jamarcus Russell and Jay Cutler notwithstanding, hey, the quarterbacks got it going on this year. FABULOUS!!!

Just Gotta Take One Last Jab at Favre!

Beyond the fact that he is acting indecisive and feeble-minded these past two years, here's more proof that Favre is just too old to be playing football: analysts believe that he put on this fiasco about "retiring" JUST to get out of going to camp!! That's right Brett "lazy bones jones" Favre just may have wanted to buy enough time to sit on his cheeks and not workout with the rest of the hardworking NFL players out there! He wanted to waltz into pre-season football all rested up, straight from the farm. Well, if this is true, good LORD this guy is a basket case! Does anyone else suspect he has some type of personality disorder? Or maybe aspergers? He just doesn't seem to know how to be socially correct. Brett, buddy, listen, when you're an old, irrelevent football player, YOU RETIRE! That's the regular order of business, got that?! And shame on the Vikings organization for supporting his age-related hysteria. Man, I see that middle-age crisis hits some guys HARRRRRD! Hey Favre, here's going out with a BUST, cheerio! :P

Say It Ain't So!!!

Rumor has it that Brett "dinosaur bones" Favre has signed a deal with the Minnesota Vikings!! NOOOOOO! This news comes shy of one month where he announced that he would stay retired. It's only a rumor at this point, but sources have outted the news saying the deal has already been signed. And Favre did fly out to Minnesota today for some odd reason....Egads! This man is 39 years old and is pretty much set to be entered into the NFL Hall of Fame IF HE WOULD JUST STAY RETIRED LONG ENOUGH!! Good lord...what do we have to do to keep this guy away from the NFL and keep him retired??? Does his wife and kids bore him THAT much?! :(

Good Riddance! Favrewell!

Whew! That was a close one. I thought we were gonna have to deal with Brett Favre's attention-whoring for ANOTHER football season! But, praise be to the football gods, Favre has decided to stay retired. Don't get me wrong, he did his thing in his football career. He inspired a lot of up and coming players and set many standards for quarterbacks in the league. But when a man has to know when he has contributed all that he can to the cause. He has to quit while he's ahead before he tarnishes his legend and makes himself look like a bafoon! Too many times, athletes have retired and come back only to make fools of themselves. Such names as, Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Mike Tyson, and others. Now, I can't say that Favre made a fool out of himself when he retired and then decided to come back to play last year. He didn't do horribly, but he didn't do much of anything worth supporting his legend either. Listen to these career stats: TD: 464 - 310, 65,127 yards passed, and a quarterback rating of 85.4! That's darn good! Hey, the man gave 17 seasons of his life to the NFL. Now it's time to focus on his family and nurse his body back to health. And it's not like he's exactly ready to join AARP, he's still a young man (only 39), there's plenty more he can do. So hats off to Mr. Favre, and Happy Retirement!
