First of all, this has nothing to do with winning games. No one here says they didn't like Brett playing, they're just saying that they didn't like the off-season drama.
I, also, like his honesty. I also think the media will set him up in any way to get some higher ratings. I also think he's a proffesional player though and being nearly 40 year olds, he should've learned to work with the media a bit. Maybe not telling them anything and not letting the fans go to this rollercoasterride every off-season.
