It certainly appears that Favre is going to change his mind (again) and play football this year. ESPN reported today that Favre's agent wrote a letter to the Packers requesting Favre's release.
I've always admired Favre as a player, but I've got to believe that the executives in Green Bay are fuming right now. There's no possible way for the Packers to win in this deal. If they keep Favre, they alienate their quarterback of the future (Aaron Rodgers) to appease Brett for 1-2 more seasons. If they release Favre, there is a strong likelihood that he ends up playing for a division rival like Minnesota or Chicago. I don't think there's enough beer in the cheese state to drown out the sorrows of seeing Favre run out of the tunnel at Lambeau Field on the opening Monday Night Football game wearing a purple jersey. The whole state would be on suicide watch.
So, what's your take on the whole deal? Is Favre the bad guy for putting the Packers in a very tough spot, or is he the die-hard competitor that deserves to lace up his pads again?
