Favre — Is he really retired?
Add comment March 4th, 2008
Official reports say Brett Favre has retired. Maybe he has; maybe he hasn’t.
His agent says “I don’t know” as to whether Favre will change his mind. Favre apparently has been leaning toward coming back, but now feels the Packers don’t want him back.
If that’s true, then there are a lot more questions to be asked.
Sounds like Favre was unhappy Green Bay didn’t pursue Randy Moss, again. Favre announcing his retirement just after Moss re-signed with New England might reveal his current mindset.
Favre might just be stubborn enough to stay retired, even if he knows he could play at least one more season. If he was going to retire all along, he should have, and probably would have, informed the Packers sooner so they could pursue some of the top free agents.
They’re all gone now. So, too, is Favre.
Maybe.
