All I'm saying is that he should stop saying he's retired when everyone knows he's still gonna play, or at least take a year of so we don't have to go through this every season.
ram29jackson-
what you fail to realize is- what the media knows and or is told or decides to key on and tell you is way different than the communications between Favre and the Vikings. Obviously , the Vikings arent complaining about this. you dont need to know crap and the media doesnt need to know crap.Only Favre and the Vikings need to know anything about each other. and he wasnt pulling anyone along. He was waiting for full confirmation his shoulder/ arm could take it.
Favre is basically in comparison = The NFLs Jerry West- he is the poster boy for the league! when he is done it will be hard for the league to find anyone to push as an icon.
we know his personal tragedies. he admitted his problems, and through it all he played high caliber, fun loving, gunslinger, football
and now- back on topic ignoring obsessive freak- favre is King !
