Bullcrap.
I won't believe it till he turns in his papers. More attention-whoring.
Attention whore is right...I lost all respect for the guy over the last few seasons because of all the attention he seeks.Originally Posted by Killer

I wonder if he will cry at the press conference
Somewhere Rich Eisen is already crying.
Array title="venom has a reputation beyond repute">
I know who is not crying , the rest of the NFC !!
If it's actually true, the Vikes are sca-roooed.
One thing for sure...Viking fans just pinched their spincters a whole lot tighter....has anybody asked Tarvaris how he feels?

Im sure Las Vegas changed the "odds to win the Super Bowl" by now for the NFC .
Well when you are forty it is a lot for the body. One of the top ten great quarterbacks of all time, but I really wanted to see him in the season opener. O well I suppose.

Brett Favre.

KFFL - Vikings | Brett Favre yet to make decision?
Tue, 03 Aug 2010 09:31:11 -0400
Minnesota Vikings head coach Brad Childress said during his press conference Tuesday, Aug. 3, that he has spoken with QB Brett Favre in the last 24 hours, and Favre didn't say he was retiring. Childress also said he has yet to hear from Favre on a decision to retire.
I won't believe it until he is in Canton
Ill believe it when he is not on the field in New Orleans... but then he may StILL come back.
I don't buy it because, we have all seen this before. Like mentioned in above post I believe it when week one rolls around and, there is no #4 on the field.

If it is true the viqueens are brett farved
For those i love i will sacrifice.
Si ventus non est, remiga
When Brett Favre is not on an NFL roster in two months, he's retired.
Otherwise, it's more attention whoring from him.
Array title="venom has a reputation beyond repute">
If hes gone , the Vikings vs Saints Opening Night just lost its luster
Array title="Mach1 has a reputation beyond repute">
He'll be back!
Give a lib a fish--he eats for a day
Teach a lib to fish--he is back the next day asking for more free fish.
ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ
Yeah, this drama every year is a bit tiresome.
But I hope it isn't true. I like the guy, he's fun.
And that Thursday opener would be so much better with another Brees/Favre match up.
Array title="cold-hard-steel has a brilliant future">
I agree,i think he will be back,afterall,he's been retiring now for a few years.
Array title="siss is a jewel in the rough">
Wow I always thought Brett Farve would retire when Ben finally asked me to marry him!
And there is .00000007 chance of that happening!
There is a very good chance of this happening, though:

Family insider: Brett Favre still mulling retirement decision

Recommend Brett Favre has not yet made a decision on whether to return to the Minnesota Vikings for the 2010 NFL season, an unnamed person close to Favre's family told the Biloxi Sun Herald.
Earlier Tuesday, the AP, Fox Sports and Minneapolis Star Tribune reported that Favre had informed the Vikings that he had opted against playing.
"Brett has not made a commitment to play or a decision to return at this point," the Favre insider told the Sun-Herald.
Favre's brother, Scott Favre, also spoke to the Sun-Herald. "I have heard no truth to that (retirement)," Scott Favre said. "I know he can still play and I want him to keep playing."
Vikings coach Brad Childress denied after Tuesday morning's practice that Favre had told him he would be retiring. He called the situation "very fluid."

Fox Sports reported that Vikings officials were trying to change Favre's mind and would even consider sweetening the $13 million salary he's set to earn.
Favre, 40, had surgery on his left ankle in May and has consistently said this year that he doesn't know if his body can withstand a 20th NFL season.
Vikings TE Visanthe Shiancoe told ESPN Radio on Tuesday that he believed Favre's retirement talk was not a ploy.
"What I'm hearing is that it is true, that he did decide to retire," Shiancoe said. "But until I hear it from his mouth, I'm going to leave it at that."
Shiancoe added that a potential retirement from Favre would be "a blow to the team" for the Vikings, who lost to the Saints in the NFC title game last year.

I'm probably in the minority, but I still miss hearing Madden when watching primetime games.
It's like turning on the radio during Christmas and not being able to hear Bing Crosby.
A lot of things are screwey in this world, but for me personally, familiarity brings about comfort.
I kinda wish he gets bored in retirement, and decides to jump on that bus again.

All this Brett Farve talk cut into our Steelers update, Adam Schefter was in Latrobe on his tour, but all he did was answer Brett ? than at the end they asked him anynews on the Steelers, he said we did a good piece with Hines on the tour bus but dont have time to air it. Go figure
No problem ... Favre won't be interrupting Ward's post-Super Bowl interview.
