Anyone who wants Bret Favre to come to the Bucs I have two words for you, shut up! It’s not bad enough that we’ve been dealing with endless QB carousel that Jon Gruden loves to operate,the Jeff Garcia contract shit that’s been going on and among other Gruden/Allen BS. Now we want to start yapping about Bret Favre coming to town and adding a few more rings to the circus. I love sports rumors and speculation and stuff like that but this is annoying. First things first I don’t want to take away from Favre’s career accomplishments or anything of that nature so don’t take what I’m about to say as me being a Favre basher, he’s one of the greatest QB’s of all time. That being said, I don’t want Bret Favre here and I have a problem with anyone who thinks he’s an option that will make this team better. The team he was on last year had far superior talent at the WR position and possibly the O-Line as well. If he were to heave balls around with this team you could easily reverse the 28-15 TD-INT rate he had last year. Not only this but he comes with an extraordinary price tag, questionable decision making and, regardless of his 600 game starting streak or whatever, is an injury away from being done. Don’t we already have one of those guys at a lower price? To take this further, there is no guarantee that he and Gruden would get along. In fact the odds are against it as Gruden likes to be the biggest show in town. It worked with Gruden and Rich Gannon because Gannon didn’t care to have the spotlight and credited Gruden with all his success. This wouldn’t happen here. Favre would also have to learn a new playbook, which is a difficult one, new players and new coaches. I hear people say that the system is the same as the one they run in Green Bay but it’s not. They’re all different and it’s hard for anyone to pick up this system in a short period of time. This would be an outrageously stupid move and I know I might have to shoot someone if they bring this drama addicted old man to town. I’ve seen posts over at Buc ‘Em and the Bucs Beatabout this and it drives me insane. I know there’s not a lot to write about right now with the Bucs but why add fuel to this beyond annoying fire? Stop it!
