Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings have had, to say the least, a dissappointing season. Coming off of big hopes from making it to the NFC Championship game last season and getting Favre back in the game, the team has failed to perform this season with a record of 3-7. Vikings owner responded to the failures by firing head coach, Brad Childress, yesterday. Even though the head coach usually takes the heat for the players' inability to perform, this firing seemed rooted in a personality conflict between Childress and his players.
In response to Childress' firing and the promotion of defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier to head coach, players consistently mentioned the respect and good vibes they get from Frazier, implicating the uncomfortable relationship shared with Childress. Hopefully, Frazier can get a hold on the bickering and finger pointing on and off the field, or his tenure will be quite short as well.
Just quite unfortunate for Childress who was forced to take Favre back, and then gets sacked for Favre's weak performance. Childress taking the fall for Brett Favre's poor playing, is a bit like Jen Sterger taking the fall for Favre's illicit behavior...When will Favre realize the pain he is causing others by forcing his lost Superbowl dreams?
