I want the attention of the ESPN news director or at least the dude who's in charge of the scoreboard crawl. As an athlete, you know you've attained some sort of notoriety when ESPN gives you your own slug on its scoreboard crawl. AL, NL MLB and yup, there it is: "Favre"
You think ESPN's presence makes Favre more of a story? Is it the best use of resources to have reporters file remotes from the Wisconsin airport...Are they adding to the story at all? And this is precisely why people hate the media. It's piling on.
And where's NFL commissioner Goodell in all of this?
Can we move on? I've grown tired of the overrated Favre dictating his wishes and desires. His gunslinger image takes a big hit IMHO. If we kill T.O for being a jerk, its time Favre gets his 10 minutes too.
Good for the Packers. Let him rot--or at least let him throw mindlessly into double coverage for Tampa Bay.
Perhaps Chris Russo summed it up yesterday, "ESPN, it seems, wants to do a remote from Favre's kitchen table."
