In the spring of 2006, former Green Bay Packers tight end Mark Chmura made public statements in which he ripped Brett Favre for the way he prevented the franchise from planning for the future by refusing to state definitively whether he was going to play that season.
Among Chmura's comments at the time:
"People who don't think that it's all about him are fooling themselves" ...I like Favre and I don't like Chmura, but in this instance, Chmura might have been right. Favre's waffling on retirement has shown him to be driven by what he thinks is best for him, even at the expense of the team. That's the definition of selfish.
"These quotes are 'I am better than the game,'" Chmura said. "'I will make my decision when I want, and Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy aren't going to tell me what to do'" ...
"He's a selfish guy. He's a very selfish guy."
