Favre to the Jets

[BleedBurgundy]

I don't care for the drama but the guy has a right to do what he loves as long as someone is willing to hire him. He doesn't owe anyone anything. Even if he loses every game, at least he is playing. Once he actually is totally, finally done; he won't have to tell himself "I could've played a few more years." I'm sure he doesn't want that kind of regret...

I agree. I'm tired of the drama too but if the guy wants to keep playing go for it. I think it's a shame things went down the way they did, but it is what it is.

You know, I wonder pretty often what it would have been like if we didn't have the 24/7 media coverage for sports. If we didn't hang on every trade rumor, would this really been that big of a deal?

I really blame the Packers in all of this, they really could have just stopped trying to drive up the price, making it look like they were trying to trade Favre, meanwhile, making a half hearted attempt. They should have just done this thing 2 weeks ago, somewhat under the radar and been done with it, but instead they let it get to this point.
