[QUOTE="Hauschild, post: 263570, member: 1638"] No way would it have not been a story and I doubt it could have had any less impact on the NFL. I think another aspect you have to think about is why the onus would have all been on Brett to contort himself into something he wasn't comfortable doing? You say why couldn't Brett have come clean, but I say why didn't TT simply cut a deal with him that fateful Saturday evening and granted his release (at which point, the damage was done and Favre was NEVER playing for GB again.)? The same number of people would have whined regardless, because some people have trouble separating real life from their fantasies. There are many different ways to look at this situation, but the face is, Brett Favre was a special case and deserved better, or at the very least, different treatment. He brings home the bacon for the Packers and the NFL and he's certainly earned some seniority - not that I'm big into that socialistic concept, but still. Just be thankful we didn't employ Mutt-n-Jeff at the point Mike Sherman was coaching, or Favre would have been gone 4 years sooner. [/QUOTE]
