Surely, the Vikings’ problem is that they have not bowed low enough before Brett Favre! Childress only drove to the airport to pick him up. Why didn’t he offer to fold Favre’s laundry too? If only the Minnesota Vikings would show Favre some respect!
Favre leads the league with 17 interceptions — and maybe he wouldn’t be throwing to the wrong place so often if he’d bothered to attend training camp for the past two seasons. Favre also has lost five fumbles; 22 turnovers in 10 games by the starting quarterback would doom any NFL team. The Vikings are last in the NFL in turnover differential — and Adrian Peterson hasn’t fumbled this season! Yet Childress is scapegoated while Favre floats above it all. The Metrodome crowd chanted, “FIRE CHILDRESS!” They should have chanted, “PROTECT THE FOOTBALL!”
In 2007, Green Bay wanted to be rid of Favre because the team was sick of his attitude, which boils down to: me, me, me and have I mentioned me? Sunday, Green Bay’s judgment was vindicated in emphatic fashion.
In 2008, Favre single-handedly blew up the New York Jets, leading to a fired head coach and bitter recriminations all around. In 2010, Favre has blown up the Vikings, with a fired head coach and bitter recriminations all around. This must be some inexplicable coincidence — it can’t have anything to do with Brett Favre.
