Brett's Here and So is His Circus

Mark my words Viking fans, this won't end well. It already hasn't begun well and things rarely wrap themselves up into a nice bow. After all, this is Brett Favre we are talking about. An egotistical, selfish, unadulterated circus clown. The man used to be a legend...The Gunslinger, The Every-Man, The Lambeau Leapster, The Quintessential Cheesehead, but all that is now gone. He turned his back on humility, respect for his teammates and the league, and in my opinion, has forever turned his back on The Green and Gold. But, this is what Brett wanted all along...to play on the rival Vikings, to battle his old mates two Sunday's a year, to show former boss Ted Thompson that even at age 40, he can still go deep, still fit footballs into water-tight holes, still keep up with the youngsters.

The NFL's most prolific passer is clearly an upgrade over Sage Rosenfels and Tavaris Jackson at QB, but what kind of message does this whole fiasco send to the rest of the team. How can Brad Childress ever expect accountability, sacrifice and honesty from his players after only a few weeks ago saying, "The book on Brett Farve is closed." The Vikings sold their soul for the shot at a title, knowing full well in a month, a year or two years, whenever this experiment ends, they'll be back at square one yet again. Aren't they concerned that Brett is only doing this for revenge? Aren't they concerned about Brett's beat up body holding up for what they hope is more than a 16 game season? Aren't they concerned that by Week 10 Brett will be wishing he was sitting on his tractor and not on his rear end after a Brian Urlacher blitz.

And Brett, doesn't your legacy mean anything to you? You're completely tarnishing it! You're the joke of the league! What if you get hurt and your consecutive game streak ends because of this debacle. Sure other legendary players have traded uniforms, but Michael Jordan went to Washington, not Detroit, LA or New York...as the movie title goes, "You're Sleeping With the Enemy."

Brett, it's time to once and for all get over the Packers releasing you, it was the right move...you were beat up, your body was letting you down, your arm strength wasn't what it once was (Corey Webster proved that!) and they had a very worthy air apparent in waiting. Stop all this flip flopping!

You're in for a rude awakening this season Brett, one that I believe you'll regret for the rest of your life.
