Now here is an example of a grown man acting like a child. "I retire, no I'll play. No, I'll retire. no, I'll play."

It'd be funny if they "accedently" mis-printed his jersy to say, "OLD F..T"

Actually, I root for both the Colts and the Rams. But I live much closer to Chicago. I just never liked the Bears. I grew up watching the Bears get slaughtered every sunday and that pretty much did it for me.

As a Vikings fan I have mixed opinions on this. He could be great and lead them back to the playoffs, potentially the super bowl. But this is just a slap in the face to the other Vikings QBs (Jackson and Rosenfels), who were told the job was theirs to battle for once Favre "retired." Hopefully this works out well and doesnt bust like it did for the Jets.

But......he apparently decided, post retirement, that he still wanted to play. Hard to fault a guy like that. I woulda rather seen him end his career in Green Bay but when a guy just flat out loves and respects the game as much as he does, I'm good with putting the mistake in retirement aside and telling him to go for it. I have never, and I'll repeat that, never, been a Green Bay fan. But I've been a Brett Favra fan for quite a while. The guy just flat out loves to play the game. To 99% of the NFL, it's a job with a nice paycheck. To him, it's livin a dream, and nothing carries more weight with me than that. 3 things I will never forget about Brett. The monday night game after his dad died Shaving his head to support his wife's battle with cancer Getting up off the ground and giving Shaun Rogers a "nice sack!" pat on the bum Hard not to respect a guy after those things

I think Favra really did himself a big disfavor by his antics the past couple years. He was one of the best QB's to ever play the game. No one was more dedicated and determined than he was. He had the respect of virtually everyone who loves the game. His fans adored him, and his opponents respected him. Had he simply stepped aside and retired with from the game with dignity everyone would still feel the same way about him. But the way he made a spectacle of himself leading up to his first retirement, the way he played head games with the Packer managment and Packer fans, and the way he has handled himself up to this day has no doubt wrecked his image in the minds of many fans. Many would have looked back at his playing days years from now and had nothing but great things to say about the guy. But after the past few years, he's made a laughing stock out of himself, and thats too bad, especially for all those Packer fans who supported him for so long.

I have never actually wished a career-ending injury on an athlete before, but I'm starting to like the idea....
Favre should be ashamed of himself. He could have gone out like a total warrior...a guy even his biggest foes had to have grim respect for. Now when he goes out, it'll be with a whimper, in a different team's jersey. I've never been a big Packers fan, but I have to say they seem like some of the most hardcore fans in the sport, dealing with the crappy weather and cold, losing seasons, etc. They deserved to see one of their heroes enshrined in their colors. Favre robbed them of that. I guess the Super Bowl Ring and millions of dollars he made in Green Bay just weren't enough...apparently he has to have a 30-year career too. Sheesh.

The problems with his first retirement were as much the packers fault as they were his they pretty much tried to force him out in favor of a younger QB , this time I can see him holding off to feel out his arm after the surgery but it has been enough already , all though I do believe he will have an impact on the season . jim

My idol back in the day...Dan Marino...stepped down when he could have easily played a few more years with that ridiculous arm of his. Yes, he was past his prime, and he was making some costly mistakes he wouldn't have made 5 years before. Even though he never got a (much deserved) Super Bowl ring, he had the dignity to step down for the good of his team. I believe people think better of him for it. Favre will be an okay quarterback. Man, I'm glad I don't have to remember Marino as "okay".
