FOOTBALL......IT IS WHAT IT IS

I've been a football fan since I was born--raised on it,And while I had always been a packer backer,I realized the game had changed when BRETT FAVRE stepped on the field.Brett brought enthusiasm and excitement to football that no other player had---NOT like Brett!
So when Brett no longer had a team with the Green bay Packers,but STILL wanted
to play (turning down millions to quit) It confirmed his love of the game like
no other.I,who LOVED watching him,would STILL watch and root for him
no matter what color his jersey was.
Brett Favre is a LEGEND of football......and if you're REALLY a football fan,
YOU KNOW IT!
Brett deserves to be honored as the football player he was---Nothing else matters.
Nothing should delay or stand in the way of giving the man his due for
his accomplishments in football.
.......And just think for a moment--If you were to judge AND eliminate a player
for his conduct on AND OFF the field,
DO YOU REALLY THINK WE'D HAVE AS MANY PLAYERS IN THE HALL OF FAME
OR AS MANY TEAMS AS WE DO?...........REALLY?
You'd be shocked to discover football players ,like anyone else ,DO NOT
pledge to be perfect enough to wear "angels wings" and there's NO provision
in their contracts for such. THEY ARE PAID TO PLAY FOOTBALL.
Let's see........
Atleast,a third of the NFL players would be eliminated because of DWI'S
Another 1/4 for drug use
Then you have the wife beaters,the sexual assaulters,the adulterers,
players with lewd or lashivious behavior,disorderly conduct,players
with speeding and/or parking tickets,players whom don't pay child support,
and yet more for fighting.
Players whom use God's name in vain and one's whom don't call mom.
YOU get my drift.
You'd see what you'd be eliminating?
There goes the NFL!
NFL ,in case you forgot,stands for NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE
NOT National Football of the Perfectly Divine League!
FOOTBALL PLAYERS ARE AS HUMAN AS WE ALL ARE..........
AND HUMANS MAKE MISTAKES.......some worse than others but mistakes.
The fact is,you can pick apart anyone,in any sport,in any household etc...
BUT,football is STILL football AND I KNOW FOOTBALL!
I've seen players come and go in the 5 decades I've lived.
There has only been ONE BRETT FAVRE when it comes to the game.
I will miss him and to be honest,don't know how anyone else can possibly
fill the void that he left when he walked off the field for the last time.

Yes,Football is what it is .............and Brett favre is too!
