While I usually agree with you...not this time.
What do you think about Micheal Jordans legacy? Especially since he came back and all to the Wizards. Or Joe Montanas? They weren't hurt badly at all for coming back at their old ages.

it's not the coming back part at all...it's the 'he cant make up his mind from one year to the next if he gonna retire" part that has people pissed....
and let's get it right...MJ retired the first time...you knew he was coming back...teh 2nd time....you knew he was done for good....
Joe Montana??? I don't even see how that fits....you have to explain that one...as far as I remember it.... he played...retired and stayed retired.

Montana didn't retire and come back, but he did leave SF with some controversy when he went to the Chiefs. There were questions about whether SF was ready to move on with Steve Young (his previous starting experience in Tampa Bay wasn't great), and some question of whether Montana was being forced out for the new guy (like the situation with Favre).

Michael Jordan was even worse. He left basketball to play baseball! Then he left baseball (cuz he wasn't that good) and came back to basketball and then retired again. They seem like attention whores to me when they pull that kind of crap.

Weak comparison. Jordan won a three more titles after he came back. Jordan never screwed his team like Farve.
Jordan is argueable the best player to ever play the game while Farve is an interception waiting to happen.
Farve is a spoiled, immature, obnoxious, self centered, punk ass bitch. Disney miscast Lindsay Lohan in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen. Farve should have had the lead in that movie.

This is one of the funniest/best things I've read in a while. I'm so unbelievably sick of Favre pulling this nonsense. Attention whore is putting it nicely. It's particularly obnoxious in Wisconsin where he has been teasing us for YEARS and he holds the media captive with this "will he or won't he retire?!?!" game. Although I was originally sad to see him go, I was glad he finally made up his mind and did so in a respectable way. That didn't last long though...

The Favre watch is finally over...he is back...now the question is...will he start for the Packers or will they exercise their rights and trade him?
I know Aaron Rogers is madder than a lil' bit.....

I am praying he gets traded to the Bucs.....Garcia maybe as old as Favre, but he is no where near as good!
