Since when were Brett Favre's interests important? The Dolphins shouldn't be interested in Brett Favre. Nobody should, bottom line. I'd rather have Chad Henne, and even that thought makes me shudder.
The guy just looks pathetic at this point. Everyone's saying,"Oh they're just rumors." Fine - but how many times have the Favre rumors been wrong over the past few years?
Here's a brief history of the past few years:
*Early 2008: Tearfully retires after shitting his pants in the playoffs again. Still, his larger than life legacy in Wisconsin is fully intact.
*Spring 2008: Tells team he's considering coming out of retirement, then changes his mind again.
*Summer 2008: Having found an effective way to ditch training camp, Favre unretires, expecting his old job to be waiting for him. Demands his release after being told he'd have to compete for the starting job. Is instead traded to the Jets. His rock solid legacy is damaged, but not beyond repair.
*Winter/Spring 2009: Proclaims once again he's retired.
*Summer 2009: Successfully ditches training camp again. This time he signs with the Vikings to avenge the fact that Thompson and McCarthy no longer felt like letting him do whatever he wanted and had found a better QB. Legacy amongst Packer fans is in ruins and will never be fully repaired.
*Winter 2010: Favre does all Packer fans one last favor and rips the heart out of all Vikings fans with his selfish playing style. Pretends like he's mulling over retiring again. Successfully finds a way out of training camp for the third straight year.
*Summer/Fall 2010: Shows up at Minneapolis at the 11th hour and takes his job back. Plays horribly, now that he doesn't have a minute and a half to throw on every snap. Jen Sterger scandal emerges, but Goodell doesn't have the balls to suspend this "legend."
*Present: Favre realizes he can't do anything but play football until he drops dead. Somebody will take him . . . anybody . . .
