The Cheeseheads Are Resting Easier Now - Favre Is Staying Retired

The Green Bay Packers now won't be as embarrassed when the Minnesota Vikings beat them twice this year.

I was looking forward to you folks blaming a washed up Favre for your upcoming 0-2 record against the Green and Gold.
 
Maybe you guys might want Michael Vick. Woof, woof!

Two years of a washed up Favre versus ten years of a hungry Vick.  I think we lose on this deal.

Brett may indecisive, but he is no killer.

No one can really be sure if Lord Favre is retired or not.  I wonder if the prima donna can survive without all of the attention.

He's retired alright...until tomorrow when he gets bored and no one's paying any attention to him.
 
Thank God we got rid of King Carl (never saw a washed up quarterback he didn't love) Peterson, or Favre would be the new "saviour" of the Chiefs.

You talkin bout VICK???----what he did was dispicable---but --i beieve the term "Killer" is meant for human murder---what he is a sadistic @$$%#^& !!! and dog torturer! But--he has served his time---so lets see what the future brings.

Glad to see he is staying retired.One of the all time greats,but not the player he once was.

Still leaving the door open...

"I really believe this is it. I truly, truly believe it's over. But if someone calls Nov. 1, who knows?''

He can't stop himself.

How about this guy showing up at Packers training camp in a Vikings Favre jersey?

Well I'm sure he spent good money on that . . you gotta wear it sometime?  /still giggling at 'Lord Favre'

Well this thread proved wrong but now it's been announced again. Favre is retiring (I would not bet on this myself).

 
I'm done!

I forgot about this thread. Hey, let's try again. The comment still stands.

:::hmm, will i be repeating this again next year?:::

He was a great QB, but he got old-----
I hope it never happens to me.

I'm a Bears fan, but Brett Favre used to be my favorite player- when he was a Packer.
 
I think he's a piece of garbage now.  If he is truly retiring, then he's left the Vikings in a lurch at the QB position, since they would at least have had a chance at getting McNabb.
 
If this is just a ploy for more time and more money (which I think it is) it's another black mark on his legacy.  He has the Vikings over a barrel here, and he knows it.
I hope he comes back and get's sacked 10 times in the first half of the first game, and they need a crow bar to pry his disembodied head from his helmet.

One of the best quarterbacks ever, and one of the biggest douchebags ever.  Go away, Brent.

Lines from Beatles songs keep popping into my head...
 
This happened once before...
 
Oh no, not a second time...

One of our local Jock Talk Shows was playing thisc today:
Kenny Loggins This Is It lyrics  

There have been times in my life
I've been wondering why
Still somehow I believed
We'd always survive
Now I'm not so sure
You're waiting to hear
One good reason to try
But what more can I say
What's left to provide
You think that maybe it's over
Only if you want it to be
Are you gonna wait for your sign, your
miracle
Stand up and fight
This is it
Make no mistake where you are
This is it
Your back's to the corner
This is it
Don't be a fool anymore
This is it
The waiting is over
No room to run
No way to hide
No time for wondering why
It's here
The moment is now
About to decide
Let him believe
Or leave him behind
But keep me near in your heart
And know, whatever you do
I'm here by your side
You said that maybe it's over
Not if you don't want it to be
For once in your life, here's your miracle
Stand up and fight
This is it
Make no mistake where you are
This is it
You're going no further
This is it
Until it's over and done
No one can tell you what you know
Who makes the choice of how it goes
It's not up to me this time
You know
There comes a day in every life
This is it
Make no mistake where you are
This is it
You're going no further
This is it
Until it's over and done
This is it
One way or another
This is it
No one can tell what the future holds
This is it
Your back's to the corner
This is it
You make the choice of how it goes
This is it
The waiting is over
This is it
No one can tell what the future holds
This is it
You're going no further

Dylan and Springsteen shake in their boots at the lyrical of power of such Loggins songs as "This Is It", "Footloose", and "Danger Zone".

In other news, Favre's one day retirement number 807 lasts one day as his ankle got better following mysterious treatment involving rubbing bad ankle with 7 million additional greenbacks!

We know he's a Prostitute. The only question remaining is the price.

  I'll believe it when he doesn't show up on the first day of the pre-season.

  Whiniest player ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Last Season, 33 TD passes, 10 Int's...washed up?

On the news today from Favre's mouth he said he would play if his ankle is OK.

  I never said that he was washed up, I said that barring Matt Hasselbeck and Shannon Sharpe, "he was the whiniest player ever!!!!!!!!"

  I always liked Favre as a quarterback unless he was playing against my team, (The Broncos) as in the 1997 Super Bowl. I think that he is as talented as anyone out there and better than most. I don't know how much more punishment his body can take before he has to go bionic. ("We have the technology, We can rebuild him!")

The Decision to the Decision is now offical and the Decision has not been made. He has decided to make Decision eventually as to wether he will decide to play this year. If he went to Detroit and won the title he would become a God...Russ

If he thought he could stick to the Packers, he'd be a Lion.

Which side did it come out of?
