Open Letter to Viking's Fans; From a Packer Fan
Dear Viking's Fan:
Let me state first I am not a bitter Packer Fan because Brett Favre has now arrived at Vikings Training Camp and is no longer in retirement. Yes, I am a Packer Fan, but I'm not bitter.
I grew tired of the whole "will he or won't he" situation with Brett Favre well over a year ago. I am emotionally removed now from Favre Nation.
Viking's Fans, you are getting a player who puts himself and his own needs first. He will make some great plays and bring excitement to the average team you have in The Twin Cities. You have a geat player in Adrian Peterson, and initially he will make Favre look better than he really is. He will tease and tempt you into thinking you may have a team than can go deep in the playoffs. The truth is, he well past his prime. He now is injury prone, a good bet is he lost some arm strength with his offseason surgery. He will make bad reads an bad decisions. He will then gripe about some of his teammates, question some of the play calling and lead a team that will end up at best 8-8.
He is not your savior. He is an aged quarterback trying to hold on. You would be better with Sage Rosenfels. Be careful of what you wish for. And by the way, get ready to witness many interceptions. To be continued...
Signed,
A Packer Fan
