Does Brett Favre Have to Shoot Someone?
What does Brett Favre have to do in order to stop team from signing him? A few years ago ESPN did a countdown of the most overrated athletes. As I recall Joe Namath ranked rather high on that list. Now Brett Favre should have surpassed him as one of the most overrated athletes if not the most overrated athlete. Favre is a guy who has won only one Super Bowl and cost his teams a number of chances at winning games. However, teams treat him as if he is Joe Montana. This is the guy who was not able to make it through last year's season. Why would any team want him? It seems to me that there are a number of quarterbacks that teams could go after. They could either draft a quarterback or trade for a second or third string quarterback. I understand some people would think Brett Favre is better than any second or third string quarterback. In my opinion that was a few years ago. Presently, there are a number of second and third string quarterbacks that are better than Brett Favre.

1. Shooting someone won't stop a team...the NFL has shown that murder
and inhuman, barbaric, unthinkable cruelty to animals doesn't stop it either.

4. He only won one SB..
Dude... You do know how many teams would kill for a SB? Dan Marino won none yet of he had done what Favre has done no one would turn him down if he wanted to play for it. Like it or not, Favre is one of the great QB's. Do I like what he's done, no, but I can understand why a team like Vikings with a great running back would take an future HOF on.

5. He didn't really win that Super Bowl
The Packers had Reggie White, Sean Jones, LeRoy Butler and a host of other real good defensive players as well as Desmond Howard. That's why they won that Super Bowl.
