The title says it all.

Brett Favre has done it again. Except this time, he's done it bigger and better.

I'm at a loss for what to say about a man I've learned to re-love after selflessly giving up his passion for his fans.

And then, he goes and pulls a stunt like this.

What am I supposed to feel?

Gratitude? Yeah, I'm glad he's playing.

Sadness? Yeah, I'm sad he's playing against Green Bay's enemy.

Betrayed? Yeah, I think that encompasses most of my sentiment.

To Favre, from a fan who will never stop honoring you no matter what: Just let me be.

If at the end of the season your team is atop the NFC North, I'm not sure what I'll say.

But right now, I've had enough.

See, the thing Favre and I have in common is this: We both can't let go.

He can't let go of the game, and I can't let go of watching him play the game.

Does anyone know where I can get tickets to the Kansas City game this Friday?
