Think about it. Favre has been playing since high school. That's about 24 years of getting hit. Think over the years, how many concussions, broken bones, dislocations, etc. has he had? Also think of how many years on average someone works for a company before retiring. I'm not saying that I want him to leave the game, and I"m not saying that 38 is old age. It's all the factors that lead me to conclude that it's about time for him to retire. It's also, just my opinion. What I think and what really happens are generally two very different things. I stand by my earlier statement even though it might upset the great and powerful (did I forget lovely?) Mistress Lilith.

Just tell me when and where Lil and I'll bend over and assume the position to snap you one. You can be our Pixies QB and I'll gladly be your long snapper.

I"m extreamly disappointed in Brett Favre. I think when you have played for a team as long as he played for Green Bay, you owe them some measure of loyalty. I think Brett acted very childishly in the whole situation.
Not to mention he effectively and completely SCREWED Chad Pennington out of a job.

Green Bay did not want Favre back and the NFL said that he could come out of retirement so Green Bay traded him to the Jets.

I thought Favre just wanted out of the Packers and hadn't retired yet. Last I knew he wanted out his contract with the Packers and it was to go to another team. Then again I don't follow soap operas lol.
