Brett Favre just won’t die

July 2nd, 2008 | Posted by PostmanR

Seriously: he’s up to his old tricks again. Please read:

ESPN’s Chris Mortensen is reporting that Favre has told Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy that he has thought about playing this year. Although Favre’s comeback talk is apparently in its preliminary stages, Mortensen also reports that Favre’s family is encouraging him to play.

Packers cornerback Al Harris appeared with Mortensen on ESPN’s NFL Live this afternoon and said that Favre has told him that he “has the itch” to keep playing.

What. The. Eff. Look: I like Brett Favre the player. And he seems like a great dude. But this mamby pamby retirement drama is a bit ridiculous. Yeah, we are free to change our minds. And yeah, he probably could still have a pretty good year next year. But when comments start dropping like this, I shudder at the thought of No. 4 coming back for another year:

2. PLEASE MAY MY YEAR BRETT AND COME BACK YOU ARE THE BOMB AND ILL ALWAYS BE YOUR NUMBER 1 FAN FOREVER AND A DAY
