Karma Finally Catches Up to Brett Favre

All you had to do was be patient and wait. A long time. It may have taken 18 games but Brett Favre finally blew it, as he’s been known to do. The man had a great season and seemed to get even better with age, cutting down his turnovers to increase his efficiency. He was showered with praise throughout the year as if his childish and selfish antics from the offseason (and the previous offseason, and the offseason before that) were all forgotten. But in the end, Favre’s lack of integrity and regard for others bit him in a bad way, on one of the largest possible stages. He may have won several battles which includes beating the Packers twice and winning the division, but Brett Favre lost the real war by failing to reach the Super Bowl. And there’s no way he would have won the war, not if karma had a say.

Brett Favre is the same guy who screwed up Green Bay’s offseason plans year-in and year-out, putting them in a horrible spot. Favre is the same guy who tampered with the Vikings when he was still a member of the Packers. The same guy who provided Packer opponents with tips last year on how to beat them. The same guy who skipped all of training camp and waltzed into Eden Prairie to steal the job and kick Tarvaris Jackson to the curb. The same guy who wouldn’t come out of the game when his head coach told him to take a seat. The same guy who bitched to the media about being limited with audibles by the coaches. The same guy who threw on 4th down twice in a row against the Cowboys to try and pad his stats.

After reading all that and living through all that, I ask you one thing: could it have ended any other way? Of course not — karma is a powerful force.
