Favre Asks For His Release From Green Bay!

Wow...
ESPN - Favre seeks unconditional release from Packers, sources say - NFL

Other reports say that the Packers aren't going to let him go. They're going to ask him to be a backup if he decides to return.

The plot thickens!

I have lost my admiration for Brett Favre, and I now think he's just an attention whore.

Seriously, this is ****ing ridiculous.

I have said it before and I'm going to say it again he should stay retired. I know he loves to play but all good things must come to an end.He went out having a great season knowing he could still play but it's time to let the Packers see what kind of QB they have in Aaron Rodgers.

Packers should just let him go. Aaron Rogers has been training as a starter thus far, and he should be it.

They don't want to let him go because they think he'll go to Minnesota

The Pack played it perfectly. They have officially announced that he will not be released, and that he is welcome back to Green Bay, as a BACK UP to Aaron Rodgers. What this means is that the Pack will not allow Farve to go to ANY NFC North team, and probably would trade him to an AFC team. If Farve is smart, he retires. He has become a pompous a** and everyone wants to see him out of football.

He'll either stay retired or wind up traded to a non-NFC north team, likely in the AFC. I don't think there's any way he's brought in as a backup to Rodgers. That would be an absolute **** show. Rodgers wouldn't be able to sneeze without looking behind him.

I have to agree...

Even though I am, and have always been a die hard Cowboy's fan... I respected and admired the Packers, and Brett Favre.

This is a load of crap all the way around... He should stay retired.
This should never have been an issue. Bad form Mr. Favre.

You mean you did not think he was an attention whore 3 years ago when he first started this fiasco? What about all the times his PR guys played up all the tragedy he played through. The wife with cancer. Playing after his dad died. Now granted all of those things were tragic, but no one played them up like Farve did. One reporter in Green Bay said that only O.J. Simpson has lost more respect than Farve.
