You know, I am starting to think we don’t give Favre enough credit for being a genius.
He sucks for half of last year, not because he is old and came to camp late so he didn’t get in shape, instead it is because he has a bad arm (because he is old and came to camp late so he didn’t get in shape, but that is never pointed out by fawning football press).
Now, he has one bad performance and is pre-emptively laying out the rationale for another stink-bomb of a game tonight and in the foreseeable future (even giving him a window to re-re-re-retire). For being a dumb redneck, the man is a genius.
