Icing on Top



Brett Farve is a Green Bay Packer again and I’m not surprised. However, the question still remains as whether or not Brett will stay in the cheese head town. While it would be weird to see Brett in a Vikings or Bears uniform, I would still like to see him play. Brett truly loves the game of football and he doesn’t care about the money aspect of the game, he just wants to be on the field. How could you blame him for wanting to come back? When you eat, sleep and breathe football it’s hard to let go. Furthermore, the Pack had an amazing season last year and Brett is hungry for more. If the Green Bay Packers really want Brett to retire, they need to help him win another Super Bowl. Every great player wants to finish on top. No one wants to go out as a loser. Brett is a hall of fame player hands down but another Super Bowl win would solidify his legacy.

The Packers are now faced with big dilemma but the organization can survive all of this chaos. Favre has to be put in as the starting quarterback or traded to the Minnesota Vikings. The Pack can’t make it to the Super Bowl with Rodgers as their quarterback and the thought of having Brett Favre sitting on the bench makes me cringe. The other option is to send Favre to Minnesota. The Vikings would be unstoppable in the NFC if they acquired Favre. AP, Favre and Bernard Berrian would make up the modern day dream team. Plus the Viks are due for a championship (just like the Cubs). It’s really that simple. Get Favre another ring and he’ll retire for good. My sympathies do go out to Aaron Rodgers but for now it’s still all about Favre. However, I can’t wait for the Bears to sweep the Pack again this season. The Viks also need to watch out because we're out for revenge. And the Bear defense could care less about the color of Favre's jersey. Vik or Pack, the Bears will still get him every time.
