    nothing in espn.com at this point (10:30 central). maybe because they know they don't have it,they're going to ignore it until 11:31.

    I've loved watching Brett Favre play and will probably be my favorite quarterback of all-time ...

    but as a Packers fan I completely agree with you. Should've went out and announced it after the Seattle game.

    Now the hunt begins for sensible Vikings fans.

    Uhhhhh, he normally does weekly pressers.

    They've decided to push them back to every two weeks in training camp.

    He ain't retiring.

    Listening to Jason Wilde from the Wisconsin State Journal right now on ESPN 1510 in Milwaukee and they aren't even talking about the Favre presser.

    So I don't know why a Minneapolis station is making a deal over this.

    Damnit.

    And nice zing on Rosie, Gutter.

    And I'm glad you agree. A Packer fan buddy of mine can't see my reasoning. And I love Favre as well, like you said. I've got books, etc. etc. I love the guy. But it's time.
     
  10. I second Norman.

    Farve basically has to gut it out this year because by coming back he fucked the Packers salary cap for this year. For him to retire now would be a tremendous dis-service to the organization.

    I will hold out the remote possibility that he is stepping aside to allow the Packers to see what Rogers can do and will act as back-up. Does anyone know if his money is guaranteed or is incentive laden?

    :eek: :mad:

    Hey, I'm willing to admit the many shortcomings of the Vikes. Does that count? Just don't ever, ever expect me to worship at the Altar of Favre. :p ;)

    Whatever he says, we know it'll be the Brett Favre of press conferences.
