Bret Farve

6 October 2008

Why do you think that the league was so engaged in the Bret Farve saga that ratings even went down on “As the World Turns” during the summer?  Or why did the Kansas City Chiefs take a flyer on often injured Joe Montana (oh yeah-they made it to the playoffs didn’t they). Why do you think that people like Parcells and Bill Cowher, and retreads like Joe Gibbs and Dick Vermeil are courted like Queen Guinevere in a short skirt?

Don't get me wrong I think Brett Farve is one of the best football players of all time. He is all about the game and doesn't care about the money. That is what football should be about. If Brett Farve was about the money he would have taken the 20 million dollar deal to stay retired. Think about it, if your boss told you to go home and retire and he was going to pay you to do it. There would be no question for me. But the ultimate reason I think Farve is an idiot is he is a Green Bay legend!!!! Now for his last year he is playing for the Jets. I mean come on, no one is going to remember this year in his hall of fame career. I know he still wanted to play but he should have thought about that before he retired officially. Now don't get me wrong he couldn't have guessed at the time he still wanted to play, but not everyone can be Michael Jordan. Farve is up on years and the older you get the worse off you are in football. Farve is an excellent player and his last season was a awesome thrill ride. But I think it is better to go out on top and be something to remember. I know that he hasn't played yet and there is no way I can say that he won't do good or go to the Super Bowl, but come on. I think the they are not going to go to the Super Bowl and next year the Jets will suck again.
