Right on. I think this petty article reveals a huge rift in the NY Jets organization. Favre's presence is exposing jealousy on the team and the volitile team chemistry is a major factor the team can win 5 in a row, beating top tier teams and then losing to weaker ones. I don't believe the Jets can go far into the playoffs even if they make it. Not because of talent, but because of the insidious cancer that is pervasive in the organization. Backwoods Farve was given a seducing welcome into the franchise, but now faces the ugly reality of dealing with it's "Jerry Springerish" internal dysfunctions. Brett, you've had a good year, but the team can't accept you taking credit for any of its success, and won't embrace you as a team leader. Move on after the inevitable playoff fissle. To Jets players, attitude repentance is an option, if you are wiling to humbly sacrifice your attitudes for the sake of the organization that "feeds" you and for victory. Without an alignment of heart and mind in the fierce competetiveness of the NFL, the Jets are finished.
