Rumor: Favre Wants to Come Back
After retiring from the game of football this last March Brett Favre feels that he still has something to offer.
- Three days after a conference call with Green Bay Packers team officials on Tuesday in which quarterback Brett Favre emphatically expressed his desire to play in 2008, Favre on Friday formally asked for his contractual release from the Packers in a letter, sources close to Favre and the team said.
Favre is also claiming that the Packers almost forced him out.
- When Favre was reminded by the Packers’ brass that it was in March when the quarterback said publicly and privately that he wasn’t 100 percent committed to football, sources said. Favre acknowledged his state of mind at the time, but added that he never felt he was a 100 percent committed in March of previous years, either. Favre felt he had to make a decision to retire because the Packers were pressing him for an answer, a source said.
So now it is Carl Peterson’s turn to decide if he wants to start talking, if Green Bay grants Favre ’s wish that is. As much as Favre has done for them you would think think could grant him his wish, but it’s still about business and it’s all about that $$.
