I like many others who have posted on this board are and will be loyal Packer fan/s. However is everyone afraid to ask the simple question; If you are capable of playing a position, are good at it, but the only thing stopping you is, I'm emotionally spent, a good enough excuse to quit? How many of us would love to call our boss in the morning and say that we quit, due to emotional fatigue? How many of us could afford to? We all have a “job” to go to every day, some days we are happy to be there, other days we are not. How many mothers out there are emotionally spent after taking care of sick kids all night and have to go to work the next day, perform their job or get fired? How about having to bury a parent due to cancer and not know where the money is coming from for the funeral and the grief? We can say that we have to miss a day because of a funeral, but what about the emotional distress of loosing a parent, our mentor? We can’t afford to miss a day or get fired. We have to act as if nothing is wrong in our lives and continue to make sales calls, program computers, pick up trash, pave a road, babysit, balance an account, tell the news, perform surgery or get fired. Been through a divorce? That is emotional exhaustion for years, yet the state won’t let you quit your job... they ex will go after you for earning potential. How about having to go to take time off of work for court because your kids were being abused by your ex and you’re fighting to give them a safe home, the state wants to give them back to the abusive mother. It is great to see that even here in Wisconsin we are not immune to overpaid, self centered, primo Donnas. Whatever happened to “when the going gets tough, the tough get going”? I can understand physical limitations, Brett, you admitted you have none. It has to be a wonderful contradiction for parents who have watched many a game with their kids explain Brett’s leaving the team. Brett, most of us will work at our jobs for 40 years we have to, husbands and wives together will never make in a lifetime, what you made in a year. Please don’t cry on national TV because you are emotionally spent and can’t “play” the game anymore!
