His legacy, which was shaky at best, is gone forever. People forget, but the "great" Brett Favre won as many Super Bowls as Jim McMahon and Trent Dilfer. Too many times when it mattered most he came up short. There is nothing Montana, Aikman, or Brady-like about him.
Now he has forced his way off the team that willingly put up with his retirement/non-retirement drama for years--at the expense of their own future. He abandoned the fans in Wisconsin who loved and supported and defended him--even when it looked this time last year like he had come back just to chase Dan Marino's records. This is how Brett Favre should be remembered.
Welcome to New York, Brett. Now nobody can complain when I boo your sorry ass.

Dear Mr. Viall,
As a Board Member of the Wrangler Jean company I am writing to threaten you to back off Brett. He introduces whimsy, tomfooleries and ballyhoo into our commercials. Toss the ole pigskin to an insurance adjuster, giggle with the landscaper, have a fake laugh with the token minority, jump on a pickup truck with a dog and be American.
Stop being a Commie,
Craven Moorehead
