Dear Brett Farve,
For the last three years I've hoped and prayed that your career would end on the field that you love so much. Tonight I believe I'm one step closer to seeing the realization of that dream. Its very unfortunate that you continue to sustain injury after injury. But that's what you signed up for after sitting out training camp and beginning play at less than 100%. I'm a believer in karma. Your decisions, or lack thereof, in the off season of committing to your teams (Green Bay, The Jets and The Vikings) because you couldn't get your act together has come full circle. Since you couldn't listen to the more subtler signs of (insert deity you believe in) telling you to cut it out, tonight I'm hoping you got the message loud and clear.
You should just stop. Please. You should be sitting at home telling your grandchildren stories of how their pop-pop is one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time. Not sipping from a straw and trying to remember who you are because you got leveled on the field.
Again, just please stop. There is no Super Bowl in your future so just enjoy the past.
Love,
Me
Re: Dear Brett Farve,
He did post-game this week? I did see and can't find the clip. But last week...oh yeah. His ego is out of control! But to be fair, the Vikings and the Jets have kind of helped this along by letting him get away with not deciding to play until the last minute. He thinks he's the best, and considering the Vikings started him with a broken ankle and heel just reinforced that. It'll be really interesting to see what happens this week. Favre Watch 2010 part deux has already started on ESPN.

Yeah just saw it. I wouldn't be surprised if he was severely concussed. He's already pretty delusional about his playing ability but I can't see how he couldn't have a concussion.
Also I was thinking that his life is pretty much in the crapper right now. He's having a terrible season, he got outed for cheating on his wife and his body is falling apart. The two things he's had to fall back on for decades are no longer there. I can't image what that's like.
But either way, if Favre can't pull himself back then the Vikings certainly should. If he were anyone else he would've been benched weeks ago.
Loving this thread. And I would like to thank my New England Patriots for pushing his retirement that much closer and trying to knock some sense into him (literally!). I generally don't like to see players get hurt, but the OP nailed the point - his lack of training camp and off-season conditioning is hurting him the most. And the drama and attention he craves every week -- will he play!! The streak!! God, he's so self-absorbed.
I agree.
I agree, three years ago was when he should've stopped. Everything since then is a a distraction to his various teams. A hilarious, hilarious distraction.
But, as a Bears fan, I will rejoice in his failures. Being that I have little to rejoice in nowadays.
Perfect love drives out fear.
