Rodney Harrison may not be quite the football icon that Brett Favre has become, but the guy knows football. He’s also not afraid to speak his mind, and often time he makes a lot of sense. I have, as many of you have, grown so tired of the Favre story that i’ve begun to just skip over stories with headlines such as “So-and-So Weighs In On Favre” or “Such-and-Such Shares Thoughts On Favre.”
However, I can’t help but share with you an opinion on the whole Favre thing that I think is spot on. Here’s Harrison’s take:
“From the player’s I’ve talked to, a lot of them seem to think Brett Favre is pretty selfish,” Favre said. “Each and every offseason bringing so much attention to himself. It’s just really a disappointment to hear that time and time again.
“If you’ve been in the league 13, 14, 15 years or so you know if you want to play. The circus shouldn’t have to go on for three to four years. It’s just a disappointment. Then the media they’re just so caught up and in love with Brett Favre … It’s ridiculous because a lot of guys are doing good, positive things in the National Football League and those keep things keep getting overlooked.”
Bravo, Mr. Harrison. Bravo.
So, lets blame Favre for the media’s fascination with him? That’s your angle? Let’s knock Brett for being indecisive? That’s what bothers you so much? There are so many serious issues in this world (did you see the young Iranian woman bleeding to death?), but this is your BIG problem in life! Adam, it’s you and Rodney and the other prideful fools who are getting tiresome. Brett can change his mind all he wants…if a team doesn’t like it, they can turn away…nobodies holding a gun to anybody’s head here. And if the press doesn’t stop the articles, it’s because they want to keep doing them. Know why? Money. Brett sells. And apparently, you only can at his expense. Pity is, your article is more an indictment of your own charater than his. Too bad for you. Must be so tough to be going the suffering you’re experiencing. I know! If you don’t like the program, change the channel instead of knocking others who like that programming. Or better yet, find an important matter to write about, one that might challenge you instead of making you look foolish.
Rob please, your reckless. quit letting your emotions take home-row on the keyboard…. First off, read the article. The infrastructure it was based off this line “From the player’s I’ve talked to, a lot of them seem to think Brett Favre is pretty selfish,”…. And yes you are right, their are more important things going on in the world (Iranian woman). Too bad this article is posted on NFL GRIDIRON (blog) oppose CNN, so please, let’s keep in inside the box here. This man is a 13 year vet with multi probowls. He has every right to voice his opinion, so “pride” was not thee issue here buddy. It’s called respect for the game… Far as jersey sells, Brett gets none of that money buddy! Because the NFL is a non-profit organization the money is distributed through the Players Union to ALL thee NFL players…. So please read thee article two three more time because there were no shots taken. He never said brett was selfish (Players I’ve talk too…) KEY WORDS: DISAPPOINTMENT; CIRCUS; MEDIA LOVE BRETT FAVRE . And remember buddy HE was asked the question BY THE MEDIA!!! so they were the one’s who thought it was a concern to bring it up
