Sharper on Favre

Have I mentioned that I'm not going to miss Darren Sharper in Green Bay? Sharper responded yesterday to Favre's comments on Javon Walker:

"They don't carry any weight right now because Javon Walker is a Pro Bowl player and he's going to do what he wants to do. He is not in Javon's shoes right now. Javon should not pay attention to his comments at all."

"What's going on with the minicamps and whether or not Javon's there - Brett wasn't at minicamp so it really doesn't make a difference who is there," said Sharper. "He wasn't there, so he shouldn't have anything to say about Javon not being there."
---
"Brett shouldn't have anything to say about that," Sharper said. "I have the utmost respect for Brett and what he feels as far as guys on his team but when it comes to contract situations, those are personal matters. Brett should not have anything to say about that. It has nothing to do with him."

Unlike most people who think the Packers defensive troubles have been talent issues, I think that the problem has been a defensive unit made up of selfish players that led the unit to act as 11 individuals instead one unit. The rise of selfishness and individualality on that unit became a problem after Leroy Butler retired and Sharper became the leader of the defense. Favre had every right to stick his nose into this because Walker's hold out with 2 years left on his contract hurts the team. Favre knows this, and he is a guy who puts the team above the individual. I can't say the same for Sharper.
