Let us bid farewell to Brett Favre, he has now officially retired.
No more talk about “the streak” no more talk about the battling veteran QB, no more talk about the records he is setting, no more putting his own glory and desire above and beyond those of the team.
Great career, some great things, but at least he was able to go out with some dignity with a halfway decent season this past year.
***UPDATE: Unfortunately this post turned out not to be true… even now, in 2010, Favre is still playing and will likely play again for the Vikings this year***
