Favre is a prima donna. Always has been. Always will be. Regardless of whether Childress was wrong or not, the fact Brett openly dismissed a coaching decision is selfish, and completely undermines the 'team'. Oh but I forgot. This is Favre. There is no team, just him.

Jason Whitlock had a great column yesterday about it. Basically, he said to Favre, 'shut up and play'.

Here's my thing. If Favre wants to stay out there and get rolled over and over by Peppers, go for it! I enjoyed watching it immensely.

Personally, I am looking forward to another of this slobbering, blubbering retirement speeches. I think he is at his most articulate when giving these....

Modern professional sports teach these guys to be prima donnas. They clean up after them, lie for them, pay them millions of dollars despite their bad behavior, on field and off. Brett, at least has some style and humor . . . and he is willing to pay the physical price for his decisions. As soon as I tuned in the Vikings-Panthers game and saw Brett's red nose, I knew his performance was going to be poor. Brett is a hothouse flower and can't play in the cold, which is why he wanted to play for the Vikings as they have a dome. I guess Brett didn't realize it could be 37 degrees in Charlotte NC.
