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.

sure, we’ve blown out the packers on rrstar.com.

but we also are offering some cool things in print.

if the packers win sunday, starting monday and running through feb. 4 (the day after the super bowl), we will sell the register star and the green bay press-gazette at the 13 walgreen’s stores in rockford, belvidere and roscoe — $1 daily and $3 sunday.

also, this sunday, look forward to a special section full of green bay’s content supported by rock river valley advertisers!
