Favre to stay retired (updated)

[Skinny Tee]

Favre's shoulder is gone and is preventing him from being like he used to.

But Favre at 60% is better than Sage and Tarvaris at 100%. I think it's a perfect move for Favre and the Vikings.

I love how Favre just wants to stick it to the Packers and that will make for great games even if he doesn't do that well. I'm not in love with Favre I just want to see some good football action since I'm an impartial spectator.

I bet that's a relief to your new fiancee.

I hope that the Packers pound Favre into permanent retirement.

Somehow, this is unbelievable to me.

Not surprising at all to me.

I like Favre the football player just fine, but the dude is a ridiculous narcissist.
He's like a attention vampire. If he doesn't get to feed on enough of the spotlight he dies.

Ahhh, yes. The obligatory ball-busting.

I was wondering when it was going to come for me. That moment has arrived.

Well it's almost that time of the year the annual Favre unretirement/ I had a change of heart reunion tour. IMO he will clearly be a vikqueen this year. Wants that revenge on those cheese heads!

Report: Favre, Childress To Meet
Posted by Mike Florio on May 5, 2009, 6:46 p.m.

Well, well, well.

Welcome to the Summer of Favre, Part 2.

Only a day after the former Packers and Jets quarterback supposedly told ESPN’s Trent Dilfer that said former Packers and Jets quarterback won’t be playing again, ESPN’s Ed Werder reports that said former Packers and Jets quarterback will be meeting with the man who’ll be the former Vikings coach absent a postseason win or two. Or three.

Per Werder, Favre and Brad Childress will meet at an “undisclosed location” later this week to discuss the possibility of Favre joining the Vikings for the 2009 season.

Werder says there’s a “mutual understanding” that Favre will soon thereafter decide whether to sign with the Vikings.

Also, Favre’s agent, Bus Cook, reportedly is looking into whether any unemployment quarterbacks coaches are available to work with Favre as he works his way back into playing shape.

In Minnesota, Favre immediately would be installed as the starter, and he’s get the keys to an offense very similar to the one he ran for years in Green Bay.

Do you lot really enjoy talking about Favre this much? Do you find yourself possibly wanting to have his baby? If yes, please continue.

This favre thing is ridiculous ..I knew something was up when he retired very quietly.. He may not retire until someone givens him a career ending injury...what does this mean now..more favre weeks on nflnetwork..
Does this mean that madden comes back in the both...???

Dude is ridiculous; asks to be released (twice), then is "surprised" when the Jets do it after drafting Sanchez? You just retired Favre, oh yeah, AND ASKED TO BE RELEASED!

That seems to be the case. I don't really care what he does as long as I don't have to hear about it every time I watch a sports program. BabyCake does have a point though, it would make the games between the Vikes and Packers more interesting.

What makes matters worse is he said in a previous interview the Jets have been good to him and wouldn't ask for a release. Also said he was 100% done in a february interview...no chance of coming back. Ummm ooookkkk. I was fooled the first time around with him, not again, if he comes back, good for him, if not, good for him. I am not going to listen to him or his agent, they lie!
