It's Just Abbey

Dear Mr. Favre-

      Greetings! How are things? Good I hope. I’m fine. So anyway, I heard that you aren't staying retired. Again. I can’t say I’m surprised after the whole Jets fiasco. While I support the fact that you are still happy to play and ready to toss that pigskin around I have to wonder one thing...

     Vikings? Seriously?

     Now I'm not saying that the Vikings are a crappy team like some mistakes by the lake I know of but come on. You are a legend! In time, no one will remember you doing this. They will remember you kicking ass and taking names with the Packers. Remember when Joe Montana played for the Chiefs? Yeah. No one else does either.

     Speaking of the Chiefs, I will happily say I'm excited that your season opener is with Kansas City. I am a diehard KC Chiefs fan. I've bled red and yellow from the womb. I know they kinda suck. The only games I look forward to all season are the two times they play the Raiders. Nothing I love more than watching those bastards eat Astroturf. I know their shot at the playoffs will always be slim, but I don't care. Go Chiefs! That said I have never wanted them to beat the Vikings so bad in my life.

     Last year we had a hand in taking out the football god himself, Tom Brady. That warmed my heart. If we can take on and beat the legendary Brett Favre I don't think I'll ever stop smiling. Our victories may be small and far between, but we take what we can get! Interestingly enough, we took out Brady in the Patriots’ season opener. Makes you think doesn’t it?

     Win or lose this weekend, I'm disappointed in you, sir. I supported you as a Packer but now I am just saddened by your actions. You are supposed to go out in style and slowly crumple your reputation by doing campy beer commercials and getting a seat on the sidelines with ESPN. You need to move on, Brett. You need to move on.

     But since you don’t listen to anyone and/or you are having some sort of an identity crisis, good luck. You and your old man knees are really going to need it.

I’ll be watching,
Abbey

     PS. Fun fact: The Chiefs wiped the floor with the Vikings in Super Bowl IV. Chew on that for a while.
