Guest Turtle Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Report: Favre re-thinking retirement 4 hours, 9 minutes ago Buzz Up Print LOS ANGELES (TICKER) —Brett Favre could be having second thoughts about retirement. According to a Los Angeles Times report, the former Green Bay Packers quarterback, who announced his retirement last month, is contemplating a comeback with another team. Citing NFL sources, the Times reported Thursday that Favre has been quietly talking with teams about their interest in trading for the three-time NFL Most Valuable Player. On March 4, Favre, who played with the Packers for 16 seasons, announced his retirement during an emotional press conference at Lambeau Field. However, Favre, 38, has yet to give written notice of his retirement to the league or players’ union. Favre’s agent, James “Bus” Cook, told the Times he was not aware of his client’s possible interest in resuming his career. “That’s news to me,” Cook said. “I don’t think it has anything to do with anything. He’s retired, period, point blank.” During his press conference, Favre denied he retired because the Packers did not make a more aggressive attempt to sign wide receiver Randy Moss. However, Favre’s decision came one day after the New England Patriots re-signed Moss to a three-year contract worth $27 million. What you guys think? Could he really play some where else or are they creating a story out of thin air? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhine16 Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 I dont think there is any truth to that! If he comes back, it will be in green and yellow. Bottom line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Turtle Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 I dont think there is any truth to that! If he comes back, it will be in green and yellow. Bottom line That's what I'm thinking as well. At 38 I would think he would want to be on a team that has a chance for a championship right away where he would be the starter. I believe he thought he no longer had that at Green Bay with loss of Moss, but can he really find it anywhere else. My guess would be he either has a change of heart and believes in the Packers again or he won't be back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Finn Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Yup he doesn't need to do what MJ did:rolleyes: MJ, Reggie White.....etc They generally don't do well and only end up losing tons of respect from the fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrud Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 I hope he stays retired also. Why would he come back? What Super Bowl contender is looking for a 38 year-old starting QB? It doesn't make any sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckbuster11 Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 It makes no sense for him to come back for another team. The best situation he has to make a run at the Super Bowl is the team he just retired from. Unless he's got a serious problem with the management there, I don't know. He hasn't submitted his retirement papers yet so I guess until that happens there is going to be some speculation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
