Post; ****** BREAKING NEWS - Farve to retire ******


This is a big loss to the NFL... Thanks for the memories.

Three-time MVP calling it quits following 17 seasons

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- Brett Favre has decided to retire from the NFL after 17 seasons.
FOX Sports first reported Tuesday that the Green Bay Packers quarterback informed the team in the last few days. ESPN.com said that according to Favre's agent the quarterback told coach Mike McCarthy of his decision.
Only two years removed from perhaps his worst season, Favre had a resurgence in 2007. He broke several career records. Among them was Dan Marino's career mark for career touchdown passes. He powered the Packers to an NFC North title and a 13-3 regular-season record. He was named to his ninth Pro Bowl.

Yes, I kinda want him to play one more season and win Super Bowl but thanks for the 17 fabulous seasons, Brett Favre, and never forget.

At least its good to see him depart at the top of his game.

I suspect he is going to be hard to replace though.
