Brett Favre is a Fucking Choad


Fuck Brett Favre. Now that he has decided once again that he cannot take being out of the spotlight, I'm going to have to endure weeks and weeks of ESPN's bullshit coverage on the legendary "gunslinger". I'm sure Chris Mortensen and John Clayton collectively came in their pants upon news of Favre's return, to the Minnesota Vikings no less. I clearly do not share the sentiment of excitement. What I really want to know is this: What makes Favre any better than somebody like T.O.? He is incredibly selfish and inconsiderate of his future teammates as well as disrespectful to the fans that supported him over the years. He is clearly harboring a grudge against Packers GM Ted Thompson for not letting him come back to Green Bay (It was after you already retired, you fucking idiot!). I just think that we've reached a point where he is actually affecting his legacy negatively at this point. A whole new generation of football fans will mostly remember Favre as a a declining player who didn't know when to quit. By deciding to play for the Vikings he has also essentially ruined any good will he had left with the Packers organization and their fans. It's really a shame that it has come to this.

As terrible as it is to wish this, I hope a karmic injury is in store for Brett this year so I never have to hear about his nonsensical behavior again. Either that or I would like him to suffer through a 4-12 year with 29 interceptions. That's how deep my disdain runs for him at this point. I would bet my life that if Brett Favre was a black man with a DUI or two he would not only not get the media attention he's getting now, but no team would even debate signing him. Despite the fact that he's a selfish asshole who was addicted to pain pills, he's treated as some sort of football demigod by the media and many football viewers. The most unfortunate thing is that the media and us as the viewers often feed the beast by even paying attention to some of these things. If we just ignored the Brett Favre's of the world, we would side step the annoyingly speculative reporting and the painful waffling that has come out of this situation. All I can do now is voice my displeasure and express my condolences to Sage Rosenfels. Unfortunately, it just seems like being an NFL starter is not in the cards for you buddy. I don't quite know what to make of this whole situation at this point, but I know what teams I will be rooting for in the NFC North this year and I can tell you this: They won't be wearing purple.
