Let Favre Return to the Packers

Tools

By Sports KSFY

The Brett Favre story has dominated the airwaves of sports radio over the past week, and it is fun to speculate, about where the Packers legend may end up.

Favre says he felt pressured by the Packers into retiring, and now he wants to come back. This isn't your everyday athlete, he's an American icon, who's bigger than Green Bay. He should've had ample time to decide on his own accounts, if in fact the Packers wanted an answer in March.

And it's not like Favre limped threw last season, he had a one of his finest years. There's no doubt he can still play.

Green Bay should take Favre back, and sit Aaron Rodgers. I know that's not fair to Rodgers, but this is Brett Favre we're talking about. Is Rodgers the next Steve Young, the Hall of Famer waiting in the wings to follow Joe Montana. I don't think so. The Packer said they've tweaked things to fit Rodgers style. I say tweak them back. How tough would it be, you've been doing it with Favre for 17-years.

Favre made the mistake of retiring when he didn't want to, but he's earned the right to return. Michael Jordan came back two times, and no one had any problems.

Maybe the impending divorce between Fave and the Packers will make it impossible to have a harmonious return. If so, he should be released or traded from the Pack so he can play somewhere else.\

I think he'd look good in purple, but Green Bay would never let that happen, and they shouldn't. It would be a PR nightmare. Let him finish things in Green Bay, his own way. And the next time, he better be sure, it's over.

the Vikes will always be a big #2 in my book. The Vikes need to just look out for Buffalo to take 2nd place out from under them.
