Brett Favre: a 5-year FLASHBACK blog!

(Originally posted July 29, 2008)

It's no secret that Brett Favre is making all kinds of problems lately!  Everyone is mad at him.

Here is a list of bad stuff he did so far:

1) He wrecked everybody's plans by coming out of retirement.

2) He revealed things the Packers told him that were supposed to be secrets.

3) He made illegal phone calls to other teams.

4) Whenever another team acts like they actually WANT him to play for them he says no and tells them their team is crap.


How are they going to fix this?!!  I know some of you internet dorks out there are not too into sports so to help you understand the circumstances I am working on some fan fiction in which a similar situation occurs on "Saved By the Bell."  It's not quite finished yet but here is a quick summary:

Okay in this story Mr. Belding is acting like Brett Favre, and Aaron Rodgers is represented by Screech.  Mr. Belding had a really good year as principal and decided to retire on a high note.  All the kids threw him a big going away party at which he made a teary-eyed farewell speech.  Then he left, and Screech was made new principal.  Screech spent all summer working hard to learn how to be a good principal, but then a week before classes were going to start Mr. Belding came back to the school out of nowhere and said, "Well since you guys like me so much, I guess I'll come back!"

So then there's some dialogue where the kids tell Mr. Belding, "Well you WERE a great principal and all but you said you wanted to retire and we already had the party so fair is fair now GET OUT!"  and then Mr. Belding is all like "Yeah but let's be honest, Screech as principal is going to completely suck."

Good arguments on both sides.  So what is the resolution?

On "Saved By the Bell" they would probably settle it with an ultimate principal obstacle course.  After a hard-fought race, Mr. Belding would eventually let Screech win, reasoning that a good principal always wants to help a student succeed.  Screech, upon realizing what Mr. Belding had done, would then decide to step down.  That way Mr. Belding could carry on as principal and other students would be able to benefit from his selflessness just as Screech had.

Pretty good story, eh?  Maybe the Packers can do something like that at training camp.  They already have obstacles and stuff.
