Is Favre coming back?

[Dzone]

I was listening to Foxsports radio and they were saying Favre was on Letterman last week saying he might come back...wtf???...thats bullShyt if he does.. after he has this big retirement all over every TV channel and has a special edition of SI devoted to him and makes the cover of SI...How uncool to do that to Aaron rogers and now the new QB Brohm...I hope he doesnt, but It sounds like he's planning on pulling a michael jordan...I think these guys are addicted to the attention and he knows he will get another big sendoff and have a farewell tour where he will be treated like G O D...he cant stay away from that

I don't know if its the attention or just addicted to the competition. Some people just love the game they play so much they don't know when to call it quits. Look at Ric Flair for goodness sakes!!!

I really dont think he is going to come back. But you guys may be right. He would still have to honor a green bay contract right? I think its highly unlikely unless he sees himself in a position where it would be hard NOT to get to the superbowl. I think anything less would sway his decision against a comeback.

Unfortunately, he doesn't have to honor his Green Bay contract once he retires. When he announced his retirement, he would have had to pay back any signing bonus or money due to his team, to make his retirement binding with Green Bay.
Junio Seau is a good example. He wanted out of San Diego so bad, he had to retire. Then, 4 days later, he got signed by the Pats. Good move on his part!

Youre right. I forgot about that. Didnt Ricky Williams try the same thing after he got suspended until the Dolphins went after him?

Ricky basically realized that he would have had to pay $15 million back to Miami if he retired. So he was forced to come back. He smoked 90% of his money away unfortunately. Rumor has it he will be a back up to Steven Jackson in Saint Louis. LOL!
