Man, it has been a long time since I've been able to blog. A lot has taken place in that time.
Roger Federer lost at Wimbledon, and now is about to lose the No. 1 ATP ranking for the first time in 237 weeks. Though he will be replaced at the top by Rafael Nadal, Federer epitomized what a champion should be. This article echoes that sentiment.
However the sports story that brought back to my blog is no other than Brett Lorenzo Favre. Here is the latest from ESPN, and hopefully this will be all. This has been the leading story for far too long. And the coverage is making me sick.
Why does Favre get to dictate what happens with the Packers forever? How long are they embedded to Favre? Favre twice flip-flopped on returning to the Packers before finally realizing this was an itch that needed to be scratched.
Now, Green Bay is supposed to bend over backwards for Favre because he had an amazing season? Yes, the Packers were one win away from the Super Bowl, but they didn't make it because Favre threw a terrible interception in overtime. Yet that is overlooked.
And now he really handcuffed the Packers. Aaron Rodgers is not going to re-sign with the Packers after this fiasco. And why should he? The Packers haven't shown any commitment besides their one to Favre.
And Favre is definitely a diva in his own right. Waiting until July to decide to come back, and then blame the Packers, saying they forced him out. Boo, boo, boo. Please!!! You retired, prolly because the Packers didn't go after Randy Moss, and it was on your own accord.
Now they all will have to live with their decisions. And we'll all be watching, whether we want to or not......
