This is probably one of the biggest falls from grace in football that doesn’t involve dogfighting, drugs, or jail time. Just four years ago, Culpepper had one of the greatest seasons for a quarterback in NFL history, but as of now he’s unemployed and seemingly unwanted by the entire league.
The logical question to ask is…. what happened?
Aside from suffering a catastrophic knee injury his last year in Minnesota, he’s had two major obstacles that have blocked his road to success. The first hindrance is the fact that he’s played for two of the worst teams in football for the last three years. He left Minnesota and landed in Miami, a team that had NO offensive line to protect him and atrocious coaching. Daunte was doomed before he even took the field. Culpepper then left Miami for Oakland, who were a similarly bad team, with an equally bad line, and even worse coaching than the Dolphins.
It is simply un-natural to laugh this hard at 6:45 in the morning. Check out this video of Adolf weighing in on the Brett Favre/Green Bay Packers soap opera.
I’m watching ESPN’s Mike & Mike In The Morning and they’re discussing the report of the Green Bay Packers offering Brett $20 million dollars over 10 years just to STAY HOME. I cannot believe this shit…..I just can’t.
They are SO threatened with the possibility of Brett Favre putting on a Chicago Bears/Minnesota Vikings uniform that they’re willing to give him an absurd amount of money for free. Could they possibly be any more dramatic about this situation? Why not just release him and get on with your lives? The Packers have defended their decision not to release Brett Favre as “a matter of business” for an entire month now. How is it a better “business decision” to give him $20 million dollars just to stay at home?
The cap hit Green Bay takes if they release Favre is considerably less than the $20 million he gets if he takes their offer and never plays football again. We’re in a recession right now and people are losing their jobs and struggling all over the country, why not just release Brett and do something constructive with that extra money? Is it wrong to take a public relations hit and let Favre go to Chicago, then use that $20 million dollars to give to poor families?
If anyone finds my blogging objectionable and wants to pay me not to write anymore… I’m all ears. Opening bids start at $50,000.
In the latest Batman movie The Dark Knight, theres a discussion about the motivation that some criminals might have. On rare occasions, the criminals don’t want any money, they don’t want any fame, they don’t want any revenge, they simply commit crimes just to see the sheer havoc that ensues as a result of their actions.
That explanation suits me perfectly in this case, because I would LOVE to see the Green Bay Packers tank this season. I want Aaron Rodgers to take the field and completely bomb out under the pressure. I want this Super Bowl caliber team to lose both games against the lowly Detroit Lions next season. I want the fans to riot in the stands and call for the head of Ted Thompson because he drove away Brett Favre.
Why do I wish this much ill fortune on the Packers?…… Just because it’d be entertaining to watch.
NFL Cornerback Charles Woodson started up his own wine company recently, and scheduled a launch party in Ann Arbor, Michigan this weekend.
All is well right?…. Not Quite.
The NFL caught wind of this party and kindly notified Charles Woodson that Roger Goodell implemented a rule disallowing all players from promoting alcoholic beverages. The rule was put into place because if a superstar athlete is peddling alcohol it might influence minors to run out and buy a 40oz to be just like Reggie Bush or something.
However, those same teens WON’T be persuaded to buy alcohol from the four billion Budweiser, Miller, and Coors commercials that air during NFL games. What about a teenager going to an actual NFL game, I guess they must ignore all the beer being sold there.
