No Moss III


You're kidding, right? Future Hall of Famer Brett Favre was so upset the Packers didn't get lifetime Hall of Shamer Randy Moss that he demanded a trade?! I love and worship Brett, but I'm not buying it. Given the timing of the "news," I sense a pattern.

It was just last year that his people invited Green Bay media to his Mississippi golf tournament for an announcement on his playing future. That was all theatrics. The actual word that he was returning came weeks later, far away from the media glare, with a simple voice mail to Ted Thompson or Mike McCarthy or whoever pulls the strings for the Packers now. Or maybe it was a text message from the seat of his lawnmower. Whatever.

The good ol' boy act is good, but Favre is more savy than he's given credit for. Hey, Brett, a little less drama and more fourth quarter comebacks please.
