I Want Brett Favre to Fail

I have no qualms about saying that I want Brett Favre to fail.

As a Packers fan, I can't possibly want Favre to succeed. His success would be bad for my team.

Last year, it was different. Favre wasn't playing in our division. I could ignore him. He wasn't a factor in the Packers' season.

I did ignore him. I didn't care.

Now, I have to care. Favre is back on the radar screen. It's a little weird, but it is what it is.

I have to pay attention to him again. How Favre plays matters to me now because he chose to join a team in our division.

I have no choice but to want him to fail so the Packers succeed. It's simple.

I hope Favre fails. I hope he fails in carrying out his agenda.

Fail, Favre. Fail.

Go, Pack. Go.

From the Chicago Sun-Times:

In about an hour, the Green Bay Packers will square off against the Bears in the season opener at Lambeau Field.

Today has already been a confusing emotional day for Packer backers, with former hero Brett Favre leading the hated Minnesota Vikings to an easy road win in Cleveland in his first meaningful game wearing purple and gold.

For so many years, Favre's No. 4 has been a wardrobe requirement for all red-blooded males residing in Wisconsin, and some intrepid fans are finding a way to still get use out of it.

The solution, as it is so many times, is duct tape.

Here are some tailgaters tossing the pigskin around, letting the world know that their allegiance now lies with Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Apparently, the guy didn't have the resources or time to spell out his new guy's last name.

There's no question where my allegiance now lies. It's with Aaron Rodgers and the Packers.

I have no ambivalent feelings.

I want Favre to fail.

Does this make me like Rush Limbaugh, wanting Obama to fail?

So be it.
