It was just one season ago, future Hall of Famer Brett Farve was seriously considering extending his football career with the Minnesota Vikings. Farve, 40 years old playing well beyond the life expectancy of an NFL quarterback, had one of the most productive seasons since his 2 trips to the Super Bowl with the Green Bay Packers. But after looking at the season he had with the Vikings, can you say it was all Brett Farve?
Brett had a supporting cast that really made him look like an MVP all over again. But what can you say, football is a team sport. No one man can steal the show, not like Michael Jordan or Magic Johnson anyway.
But there comes a time in every athlete’s life when he or she comes to that fork in the road and has to decide to continue playing or to call it a career end and go out in a blaze of glory. Jordan tried it with the Wizards and needless to say, the greatest player in the NBA, second only to Magic Johnson did not finish in a blaze of glory. Johnson tried it as well with the Lakers with the same results. So Brett decides to come back yet again, wise choice, or his pride is doing all the thinking for him. Only time will tell if it was the right choice.
