I am so sick to death of every single time I get the opportunity to turn on ESPN (that's rare these days) it seems the only thing they are covering is the drama between Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers. This saga has gone on far too long and it's beginning to make me hate to watch ESPN, and that is extremely tough to do. Frankly, I'm not the least bit surprised that Favre decided to return to football. He had a very productive season last year even though it was his typical force-a-throw-into-coverage-because-im-trying-do-everything-myself decision that cost the Packers the NFC championship game last season. Still, the Packers are a young team with lots of talent surrounding their aging 'gunslinger.' So when I saw that Favre, after seemingly debating the decision for the last 4 or 5 years, announced his retirement I thought to myself, "He'll be back." Little did I know the mess his decision would cause.
After watching a portion of coach Mike McCarthy's press conference earlier today my suspicioun regarding the situation has grown stronger. Why would the Packers not want their franchise QB back? And now, all of sudden, why does Favre not 'feel comfortable' or whatever it is with returning to the team as their quarterback. There's something they're not telling the media. But my point is, I don't care anymore. I can't stand to watch anymore cheesehead reporters salivate at each and every press conference, or watch anymore footage of the Packers GM, president, head coach, and ,of course, Favre as ESPN updates the story with no new relevant information, or watch the NFL live crew debate this soap opera any longer. That even includes Wendy Nix updates from cheese poop for brains head land. See look, you guys make me dislike Wendy Nix. That sucks. I wish and hope that this all ends soon. It seems Favre is going to be traded and it can't come soon enough. Get this shit off of my TV please.
On a related side note, I turned on NFL network the other day as I was gobbling down my home-made roast beef sandwich and to my delight they were showing a replay of the Packer/49er playoff game from 1999. And it was at the last drive!!! You know where T.O. (even though I hate his guts now) finally caught a pass from Young to beat those despised Packers. I smiled through my roast beef filled teeth as the camera flashed to Favre's face after that play. What a disgusted frown he had. I have the same look on my ugly mug from when I see him on TV and it will stay there until ESPN calms down. That will be probably be never. Great, I'm stuck with a monster face for the rest of my life.
