Another Football Season Coming To An End

Football season is by far my favorite sports season of the year and it is unfortunately coming to an end as the Super Bowl is taking place this upcoming Sunday. This is also apparently the same view as the majority of sports fans across America as the tv ratings are off the charts for these events versus the other major sports year after year. I'm a fan of both college and NFL football and playing fantasy football on top of that only keeps me more intrigued as it makes watching terrible NFL games a little more palatable if I have a 'player' playing in the game.

It was a postive year for my hometown football teams (Green Bay Packers and Wisconsin Badgers) as they both had successful years in terms of records and some individual achievements as well. However, Brett Favre dominted my football focus in 2009/10 as well as the rest of the football world. He is a larger than life individual and the way he has played the game over the years as made him a person that people can not get enough of...both good and bad.

Favre has been in the middle of many debates i've had as well as numerous others in the state of Wisconsin and across the country. After having multiple discussions (arguments) concerning Favre and the way he has handled the end-part of his career, it appears you can either be 'Pro-Favre' or against him. There really doesn't seem to be a middle ground, so i've come to the realization that no one is changing their mind and that is just fine. Stats can easily be thrown around to support both sides of the Favre debate, so it is simply a matter of opinion. One thing can and should be agreed upon by everyone, Favre is good for the game of football.

So, thank you Football for another great year and i'm already ready for next season!

For the record, i'm Pro-Favre all the way.
