I have always loved Brett Favre, but he is pushing it. If he comes back it should be on the Packers terms. Favre needs to get a job and stop acting like a little kid!

Obviously, Brett Favre isn't the most cerebral (ie intelligent) of people.

He's obviously foolish to think he can go out as an Elway (with a Superbowl win). a 10-3 season and losing to the Superbowl champs is damn good too, why can't he see that?

Because he's slightly retarded, especially after getting hit hundreds of times.

You can say what you want about Farve, but he has earned the right to compete.

Consider this: The state of Wisconsin would be up in arms if Farve had been demoted before retiring. As it stands, the Pack front office certainly isn't acting like they want him around, so I doubt they opened their arms when Farve was making his decision. So if the Packers nudged him into retirement, then they shouldnt use the fact that he did as an excuse to bench him AND keep him off the market.

I can see them not wanting him to go to a team in their division, but I certainly think they do better than backup or stay home'.

I should add that Farve should compete, but not in DC. Yeah, Im looking at you, Danny

i hate the packers but love favre and all because im a bucs fan from the beginning and the pack always embarassed us. i would love to see a favre for simms/garcis trade.

How can they even consider letting him ride the bench? If he returns, don't they have to pay him his contractually negotiated salary? I'm not sure what that is, but I guarantee he'd be the best paid backup in all of football.
At this point I'm betting on a trade, and Favre to the Bucs makes sense.

The last several years Mr. Favre has made it difficult for the Packers to intelligently go into the draft, not knowing if he would decide to play, or if he would decide to retire; it was a constant routine of not making a definitive decision. In this case, he made a decision, and the Packers made their plans, both draft plans and upcoming season plans, based on his definitive retirement. If Mr. Favre wanted to come back, there was more than enough time between the end of the season/his retirement announcement, for him to un-retire (since he never put in his formal retirement papers).

While I'd like to see him play, and while I believe he can still play, at a certain point the Packers have to move on and play for the future. If they are willing to pay him to be the back-up quarterback, so be it; it's their team; it's management's team, not his. The team has to do what the team thinks is best... best for the team, not for any one individual player.

My view is simple; Mr. Favre should not have announced his retirement if he didn't think he wanted to retire; and if he changed his mind, he should have said so immediately, and accept what the team's decision is as to the team's roster and line-up. I fully understand that he might have changed his mind at this late date (and not sooner) because he felt the "urge" now that training camp is days away; but if he wants to play that bad, and play for Green Bay; then he needs to accept that he'll have to play on their terms. It's not indentured servitude; it's a business, and the Packers have to make business decisions, not decisions a player - or former player - wants.

So what? Favre goes where he goes and that's it. Campbell is the QB I care about. As for Favre, I'll cry me a river if he doesn't get his wish to be released or traded. NOT!

I lost respect for Farvruh when he went to the ground without contact to give Strahan the single-season sack record.
