Things we can all agree on:
1.) Brett Favre would like to start for an NFL team next season
2.) The Vikings have at least considered the possibility of acquiring the Southern Miss. product.
3.) Learning an NFL offense, particularly for a quarterback, takes a lot of time and effort.
4.) There are rules against having discussions with one NFL team while being under contract with another.
With these four points in mind, how has Brett chosen to play his cards this offseason?
- He is delaying a petition to Roger Goodell that would force Green Bay to release him or add him to the active roster. By not making this move, Favre keeps himself out training camp which would be a good time to learn a new team's offense.
- Favre used his cell phone (which is provided by the Packers who also pay the bill) to call Vikings Head Coach, Brad Childress. The Vikings didn't get to add the Atlanta Falcon draft pick yet, but they have added tampering charges to the list of challenges they have for the upcoming season.
This is the guy that football writers are tripping over themselves to defend? Favre has had no less than 10 chances to avoid this exact situation and any indication that he is the victim is total horseshit. If Brett Favre is a victim, then I'm a tabby cat (I'm actually a tortoise shell, dumbass).
