In today’s guilty until proven innocent sports culture, I feel like I’ve become increasingly skeptical of just about every athlete using steroids.
Favre has never been accused of using the juice. That being said, it would explain a lot.
Remember 4 years ago when everyone thought Favre was done, and we thought he was going to retire the first time. Then he came back the next year and had a huge comeback year. Since then, he had 3 solid seasons with the Packers, Jets, and especially this one with the Vikings.
If he were “retired” all summer, he could presumably be using PEDs all off season with no testing, show up at the end of August in peak shape ready to go with the stuff all but flushed from his system, right? Doesn’t his resurgence kind of mirror Roger Clemens’s?
Thoughts? Wouldn’t this be a hell of a story if it turned out to be true…
