Brett Favre doesn’t feel welcome in Green Bay. But now he apparently doesn’t embrace the idea of playing in Tampa Bay either.

Apparently Florida is too hot for Favre, who grew up in and spends his offseasons in Mississippi. He prefers to practice and play where it is cooler, according to the St. Petersburg Times.

Is this real? Is the story satire? This Favre thing is getting almost too bizarre for words. Tampa would seem to be one of the few teams where Favre’s presence makes sense. The team isn’t in the NFC North and they don’t have a dominant quarterback.

Does anyone get the sense that Favre really doesn’t want to play but just can’t let go? It’s starting to feel that way.

In other news it seems as though the Packers might be considering tampering charges against the Minnesota Vikings for having inappropriate discussions over Favre. And yes, Jay Glazer from Fox Sports agrees in this piece that the situation is bizarre. The soap opera continues.
