Tamper This!

Another chip into my theory regarding the Pack's notorious boy-wonder.

The AP is reporting that The Packers have brought up tampering charges against the Vikings (specifically their offensive coordinator), regarding Brett Favre's potential return. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ap-vikings-favre&prov=ap&type=lgns

While the No. 4 would look awful good in purple and gold I don't think he is worth jeopardizing the future of the franchise.

What really confuses me through all this is how little communication everyone has with one another. I think any kind of "tampering charges" should be summarily dismissed on grounds of nobody has a freaking clue what is going on.

So here is a cast list:

Ted Thompson: (GM of Packers) has said he would like to see the Packers look towards the future with new QBs and would welcome Brett Favre's return... (Yes that was an oxymoron)

Brett Favre: Has come in and out of the retirement train over the last 5 years than Anne Heche has from the closet. So he doesn't even know what he wants... but he sure as hell wants it!

Brad Childress: Possibly the only guy who like a broken record keep spinning out the same lame line, "Tarvaris Jackson is our guy. [until week 4 when he strains something and his back up does slightly less terrible then when Tarvaris returns in weeks 7-8 he will do mediocre at best but the fans will boo us to a decision to bench him and we'll likely pick up some fossil on the free agent list who is terrible but will guide our terrible offense enough to not turn over the ball. He will then take our likely 4-4 team to a 5-3 finish where we might get a wild card berth only to fail in the playoffs like usual....]" Can you tell I've heard this song and dance before? Daunte Culpepper, Brad Johnson, Randall Cunningham... the list goes on.

Last but not least Darrell Bevell: Who was just innocently started calling his old coachee around the time Favre said he might want to come out of retirement... 3-5 times a week. I mean sure they were old buddies from the 2003-2005 seasons in GB. That's why Favre always made sure he walked across the field and the first person he went to was his good buddy Darren Bevell... (wait this just in... that never happened)

Acquaintances at best and it pretty much is text-book tampering... unless the Vikes can somehow prove that everyone involved is too dumb to be malicious.... A defense that practically writes itself.
