I agree.
A mans only as good as his word.
Brett's got to grow up,quit playing games....

That is the point, Northern. Ted Thompson didn't want Brett to stay. It was obvious and I am sure even more obvious to Brett.
This is old news anyway. We all already knew Brett asked to be released and why shouldn't he?
Thompson doesn't want him. They aren't going to let him play. It's the same thing that happened to Montana when Frisco had Young come in and Montana went on to win a SB for KC.
If Brett really wants to play again I say let him go where ever he wants. It's his life. It isn't fair to expect him to just do nothing when they won't be using him.
I just wish everyone would quit blaming Brett.
He wanted to come back to Titletown and Ted said no. Give the man a break.
The media jumps on his every word. One station even had the nerve to call Brett's brother while he was at the movies with his daughter and even after he said he was at a movie they kept pushing him with questions. How rude is that?

For at least two years that I can think of all the talk was about if Brett Favre was going to retire. In the post season it was "Was that his last year?" In the pre-season it was "Is this his last year?" For months after his last game last season the question most asked of him was "Are you going to retire?" So maybe he was pushed into it. But seriously, "the greatest quarterback in the history of the game" is going to be badgered into early retirement? I hardly think so. I think he's had second thoughts and would like to play the game again. So what's the big deal? If the Packers don't want him...fine. Do they have the right to prevent him from playing for another team? Apparently so. A deals a deal. I'll tell you one thing though...he's already ruined his legacy. If you asked me anyway.

The best role model ever in the history of sports. Wow - what a guy. Was that before or after his addiction to drugs. Was that before or after his excessive drinking. Was that before or after his wife told him to shape up or their relationship was history. He was (and probably still is) an exceptional football player but the greatest role model in the history of sports is a stretch. How about Henry Aaron, Ernie Banks, Cal Ripkin Jr., Walter Payton or others who played the game the right way and kept their noses clean. We all admire his toughness, his competative spirit, and his absolute joy in playing the game, but put down the green and gold cool-ade for a second and think about the word perspective.

I mean, it gets a little old everytime I come home and my brother has both the internet filled with BRETT FARVE and thats all the talk on ESPN. (My brother watches hours of this, it gets OLD. :))
