I am by no means a huge Favre supporter, but if this wasnt the information age, it would be a non story. Nothing bothers me more than all these ESPN analysts bitching about having to cover another Favre retirement. You know what? Don't cover it. You think Favre wants people coming to Hattiesburg/Kiln?
As for Minnesota, they knew what they were getting into signing a 40 year old QB. I dont hold anything against Favre for the way he has handled any of this over the last few years. It is a tough decision for him. He knows he should probably step away, but he just can't do it. He comes back last year and LIGHTS IT UP, and now he probably wants to try it again but has trouble walking across the bedroom in the mornings.
This entire "drama" is a product of ESPN/SI/FOX.
