finish the season or call it a career now? Let me know.Matthew Stockman/Getty ImagesThings are not going well in Minnesota, as the Vikings continued to slide after being trampled by the Green Bay Packers on Sunday 31-3.If you are reading this column you've probably already read a hundred others about Brett Favre already. For a guy I used to play against in Madden '94 on my Super Nintendo, he is sure getting a lot of headlines in 2010.First it was his announced retirement, then his comeback announcement. Since then it's been about alleged photos to Reebok Green Bay Packers #12 Aaron Rodgers Realtree camo Jersey
a sideline reporter, his mostly lacking play this year, his suffering of more injuries than a bus crash and his determination to tell me that nothing beats Wrangler comfort.After this latest loss to his former team, Favre stated that he needed to "re-evaluate" his career from here. Coming from Favre this could mean anything, but speculation today has many thinking that Brett might be considering walking away before the end of the season.While he isn't likely to throw his pads and jersey into the stands on his way out like Vince Young didto the Titans on Sunday, if Favre left right now there would likely be some fans who label him as a quitter.If he stays, there would also likely be fans who feel he has overstayed his welcome, and would be better off on the bench or even at home.Personally, I'm mixed on the topic. I was one of those people who felt Favre didn't need to come back in 2009, only to end up eating my words as Brett put up a career year. I hesitate to make any kind of call on him, as he never does what I think he'll doReebok Green Bay Packers #52 Clay Matthews Realtree camo Jersey
and never seems to be done when I think he is, and who knows what he means now by "re-evaluate"?So I want to know what each of you think. Would it possibly tarnish Favre's legacy and career if he walks away before the season ends, or would it do more damage if he were to continue to tape himself up and play?
