According to nfl.com Farve was not informed he was suppose to announce whether he was going to retire April 8th. His family's personal assistant announced to the media he would without his knowing of it until that day. Heres the link. http://www.nfl.com/nflnetwork/story/9371597

I've been saying this since the day of the conference. IT WAS FOR HIS CHARITY GOLF TOURNAMENT!!!! HE SAID SO DURING THE #^&@ING PRESS CONFERENCE!!! THE MEDIA IS JUST CREATING "NEWS"!!!

*gasp* Yeesh.

Favre is a great player, but lets get real. I am so sick of him either retiring or not retiring. I had about enought of him. This stuff has been going on for a few seasons now. Dude just needs to make a decision. If he wants to stay in Hattiesburg and mow his grass, no big deal. If he wants to go back to Green Bay, no big deal. Either way, I wish he would either make a decision or stay out of the freaking news. His deal is getting old very quick...

Wow...I've been a Farve fan from the beginning. I believe neither he nor the Packers are handling this situation very well. Who's running the show in Green Bay? If I was in charge we would have a decision already. Farve shouldn't be allowed to talk about what has or hasn't been added to the arsenal. Either you're with us or you're against us. They should tell him what day his jersey will be retired and move on. He should in turn be professional enough to say, "it's been a honor and a privilege to be a Green Bay Packer but now it's time for me take one more shot with a team that has a chance to win this year." Or he should just hang it up and go back to Kiln, MS and enjoy the rest of his life as a local hero. I feel really bad for Mike McCarthy because while he's trying to gain control of his new team, a certain hall of famer is holding him and the rest of his team hostage. I'll always look back admirably at how Brett Farve played the game but this will not go down as one of his shinning moments.

Yeah right...

spkb25 · 04-12-2006, 06:59 PM

Brett is pulling everybodies chain right now and he is enjoying it. I said it once and i will say it again, THE PACKERS SHOULD CUT HIS HILLBILLY ASS!!!!!!

Has anyone heard of DAMAGE CONTROL! Doesn't want to tarnish his now tarnished reputation. Too late Mr. Favre.

You can type all the caps you want.. yes, he did say it was for his charity golf tournament DURING the press conference. The problem is, he told no one BEFORE the press conference that it was going to be about the charity golf tournament.
