Ye, I don't know where I got that one year deal from either.

Maybe it's because of all the 'Favre to Minnesota next year' talk. I kind asumed he could be traded next year.

Thanks for pointing it out though.

Wiki says "this year".. but both sources they cite.. the actual article says nothing about that provision being just the 08 season..

Looking on the NFLPA site to see if I can find any reference to the exact terms.. got me wondering now what that provision truly was.

I think a lot of people hold Favre to a different level than the regular person. I'm not saying all people are one way, but I think based on the competitiveness of Favre, it's safe to say he wonders what it would be like to stick it to Thompson and McCarthy.

My guess is Favre and the Jets is a one time thing. I think the Jets would take him back, but he'll want to move on. The Jets don't have any history with Favre so they'll grant him his release.

Favre will sign with the Vikings because

A) Adrian Peterson

B) Knows the system and has quite a few friends on the staff

C) He really wants to prove to McCarthy and Thompson that they made a mistake. He wants to prove to Packer fans that the Packers made a mistake.

I hope I'm wrong, but it's kind of the hunch I'm getting.

Either way I think I'd be shocked if he retired. I think he'll keep playing even for the Jets.

He will stay with the jets ... Jet's can't trade him to vikings or else we will get like 3 first rounders.

Why would they anyways his probably the only reason that there team is actually in the playoffs picture.

I think he will leave them hanging till after training camp then announce he will play. Then after preseason he will announce he's retireing.

Continuing this, does anybody think Brett will do the retire/unretire thing this offseason?

As for whether he plays for the Jets, are they on the sunny side of the cap? What will be Brett's hit? $13m?

My guess would be "YES".
They will have to deal with the "Will he won't he" crap that we dealt with for the last several years.

That's one thing I won't miss. Too much drama.

I agree DGB.
It was getting kind of old. And this last year was the FIRST time i thought he WOULDN'T retire. Had a great year, everything looking up........and he quits.
That was the one time i thought it was a shoe in that he'd be back.
Then the back and forth crap........i was fed up with it.

Why would that bother you cheezy? How does that effect your life?
