I was able to watch it in the begining.... But have been sick,.. as of late,.. so not so much TV.

I knew he wasn't done,.. he was just tired Last yr. If he's getting 25 Mill to retire,.. how much were the Vikings gonna pay him ?

LOL! Brett Favre is one of the best QB's of all time and he just retired this last season,but not he wants back in and his team has moved on and doesn't want him.He's still awesome of course and he wants to get released from his contract but they don't want him to play for another team,so they offered him $25 mil to stay out of football

I don't know Jason,but I'm sure it's not about the money.But the fact that he would come back with a vengeance against them

They threw in another five? I thought yesterday it was 20. I need to pay more attention I guess. I'd be able to keep things straight if they had Jim Rome on ESPN instead of golf.

Since I live near Tampa, I'm getting it on a daily basis. And now Jeff Garcia is injured, so Favre is looking better to the Bucs all the time.

I live in Wisconsin and Packer fans are going to blows over these comments. It is nuts!

St. Louis Rams want Brett to.

Let's be honest here,who would'nt want Brett in his team after last years performance.He showed he can still play as good as anyone in the league.I'm sure there are tons of teams trying to get him,but he's made it clear he wants to play within the Packers division Bears or Vikings

You know Farve is on the Cover of Madden 08. So the Madden Curse is bound to follow him if he plays this year.

lol! one of the reasons Madden picked him was because he thought he would retire and the curse would end.So much for that

[thunderbolt]

^^^I'd say the curse is in full swing. Look at this whole mess with him right now.

You have to feel bad for the fans.Ticket prices,food,and souviners are going to go up if he takes it.25 Million to stay home and not work,wish everyone should be so lucky.Just another reason to enjoy collage ball.

it's simple really,trade or release him or pay the $25 mil that he could easily make in 2 years anyway

[mitchedwards]

I wish they would let him go to another team then he will fade into obscurity, like other pro athletes they came back after retirement.

But I do wish he would retire and be thankful he made it through the NFL without any serious injuries.

Favre doesn't want the $25 million to stay retired now. He wants to play and it looks like the Vikings will scoop him up. The commissioner has given Favre and the Packers until today to come to an agreement or he will make his decision on Monday.
