Get the F out!

The whole point of this blog was this...you know you were waiting for it too. Brett Farve. Get the F out!

Ever since he left the Packers in March 2008 he has been in the news constantly all summer long. He retired. Then he wanted to play again but the Packers didn't want him on the field so they offered him a marketing position. He refused and started to look to play else where. So now he is unretired. Then he is retired. Then he is absolutely insulted by how the Packers Owners and coaches are treating him. Then he can't find a job with the Jets. Then he considers taking the marketing job. Then Aaron Rogers is stated as the 100% starting quarterback. Then Farve is added to the 80 man roster. Then everyone agrees that's a bad idea. Then Farve joins the Jets and starts training camp. That's just one summer.

I don't even want to talk about summer 09. But last summer started a great drama and unfortunately it's just like a second season of The NewlyWeds with Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey, it's pointless and redundant and in the end it didn't work out.

Packer fans feel betrayed when Farve joined the Jets and even worse when this summer the media says "he's considering playing for Minnesota". Even we Viking fans who respectfully hate him, are disgusted with his alleged actions.

But what is most painful about this summer's reports of his secret meetings with coaches, friends, agents, doctors, and anyone/everyone, is none of these meetings have been officially commented on by any of those people involved. Farve hasn't said anything this summer besides he's leaving the Jets via "retirement" again. Week in and week out, if one news channel whispered a secret meeting or contract....then all of them were reporting it by day's end. It wouldn't be so bad, but not a single story was backed up with proof or comments from anyone directly involved. Even his injured bicep was a waffle story... if it would affect his performance if he needed surgery or not...horrible. I just wish it would all stop!

Even just on Friday, Farve's agent made a statement that he is 100% retired. I hope it's true. For his sake.
