Favre files retirement papers... again...


The NFL confirmed that Favre submitted retirement papers for a second time. Alex Marvez of FoxSports.com first had the story Monday  morning from unnamed sources and the Star Tribune of the Twin Cities confirmed the report.

Favre could still change his mind as he did after submitting paperwork to retire after his one season with the New York Jets, Marvez writes.

But Marvez notes the 41-year-old former Green Bay Packers quarterback has said this would be his final season after he rejoined the Minnesota Vikings during the preseason.

The Star Tribune notes that the Vikings don't have Favre under contract for next season and coach Leslie Frazier said that there he couldn't picture a scenario in which he would call Favre and ask him to come back

 

IN A RELATED STORY...

Records show indicate that Favre ordered a disappearing-ink pen from Harry's House of Magic last week.

Hey Favre! You've pulled this stunt too many times. NO ONE CARES ANYMORE!

Oh come on now, there are oddsmakers that care smile.gif

I think the official line is down to 1.5 to 1 now, so it's getting close.

Let's all just hope that the man finally stays retired. He has shamed himself and damaged his image beyond belief. He needs to let it go.

He has to be done. This was a disasterous year. I don't think his teammates will even want him back. He should have been done after last year's big season (which was still a disappointment in the end).

Get the flock out of here! Go to MS and stay there.

That's just it, I don't think it's his call anymore. Unless some desperate, last place team out there wants him just to put a few extra butts in the seats. And at this point I don't know if he can even do that.

Can I use the I-told-you-so card yet? The first time he didn't retire, I said that he should just retire while in his prime. See?

Unfortunately, I hate to admit it, but it's something that Peyton Manning is going to have to start considering soon.

I'm pretty sure Peyton will go out with his dignity intact. Archie seems to still be keeping a good eye on his boys.

Manning seems to be a little more sensible.  There were rumors of Favres antics as early as 94 or 95 as to his party boy nature.

I think Peyton will bow out gracefully. Unfortunately, I think it will be soon.

Man that makes me feel old.  I remember when Peyton was a fresh faced rookie and I was hoping he'd suck so he didn't challenge Favres numbers.

Now I'm hoping he plays long enough to catch em' all!  Or at least take em' over until Rodgers can claim em' back.  smile.gif
