I hope Favre has more class than to save the announcement until the week of the Super Bowl. Cris Carter did that the first time he retired, but I expected that from an ### like him. Favre is better than that.

My goal was solely to provide you with something for you to post about, because I knew you wouldn't have anything to say about the thread subject matter itself.Glad I was able to do that for you.good thing you read it and posted in it then.Big Score said:

Also, Dave Markus is about as low on the totem poll as the closest weather man as far as a beat reporter would go covering the Packers. This supposed story is coming out of Milwaukee and no where near Green Bay nor does he have connections that I have found to anybody in Green Bay. Most likely this story is a non story or some guy trying to pimp himself up to get a scoop where there is none.

Not really. With the way Favre has dealt with this whole retirement thing over the last couple of years...this is exactly what I would expect from him.Ghost Rider said:

Favre probably never said anything about when he was going to retire. I looked up some things about where this story was supposedly coming from. First - this story "originated" in Milwaukee and not Green Bay.Second - the guy "breaking" the story is the last guy on the totem pole where he works. No way he gets this kind of scoop when others are better informed than he is.Third - this whole thread should be deleted because no where, no link nothing, has any proof that Favre said anything.
I have a hard time believing this.
My take is it's a ratings ploy from Channel 4 here in Milwaukee. Every night on the sports they have their shot of Favre on a tractor and call it their "Tractor Watch" Stupid, ridiculously stupid.
No way this happens during Super Bowl week.

all Favre All the time. Espn will cover this everyday leading up to his announcement. I hope he announces weeks after the game, so he doesn't take the attention away from the game. WE WILL SEE

Unfortunately outsiders will take the first post and run with it like fact. There is ample evidence of that happening in the few posts already made. The same posters that do not like Favre or blame him for all the media attention given to him will also not listen to facts either. With as many people in the WTMJ viewing area on this board only one person comes on here to "confirm" the story... odd itsnt it?This thread like the claim made in the first post is ALL rumor and in no way should be taken as fact at all. Unfortunately it is being taken as fact.

It'll be a big fancy shmancy Super Bowl commercial. :(

Yep, wouldn't want to take any media attention away from the SB. We wouldn't want to miss out on answers to "What kind of tree would you be?" or "How long have you been a black QB?". 
Straight and to the point. Perfect.

These so-called family sources and the tools that try and use them have been wrong more often than they have been right. Before you beat up on Favre maybe we should see if this actually happens.

No, Favre wouldn't do something like this.

People need to read more than the title of a thread as well as an unsubstantiated first post as well.

When was there ever a need for a musical performance? They generally suck, even when there is a wardrobe malfunction. It would be refreshing to just have someone talk about football for a change. Maybe even a preview about what is on the horizon for the other 30 teams...(ok - a guy can dream, right? Even if they did this they'd probably have Skip clueless or some other talking head do it...)

Yeah, absolutely zero chance the glory wh@re himself would try to one-up Super Bowl week, like he did last season. How ironic that this happens on Groundhog Day, aptly reminiscent of the movie with a storyline that happens again, and again, and again, and again.

Brett is bigger and more important than the Superbowl. Who cares if he did it this week. I heard when he poops that it's gold and can cure diseases too.

I mean ARE YOU KIDDING ME? The Friday before the Superbowl? This couldn't wait a few more meaningless days? Favre is a legendary QB who also happens to be a laughably pathetic self-important drama queen; Case closed.

Also, "bump" for input from those above who thought Brett was above making this move.
