That sucks.
He gave us cheeseheads a lot, though. Definite hall of famer. |

| | | | At least he went out after an amazing season.
Sucks if you are on his team now. |

I will take his interception record in a split-second, as long as it also comes with his touchdown record!!!!!!!!! (Geez, talk about people who see a glass as half-empty...)

(Geez, talk about people who see a glass as half-empty...) | I'm a Bears fan that lives in Wisconsin. The amount of crap I take at work, amongst my inlaw family, and the general population allows me to have a less than optimistic view about Favre. Any chance I get to poke at the Fudgepackers is a plus in my book. Packers fans are usually so easy to rile up that it makes it pretty fun.  |

The taste of sour grapes can get real old.

That's a long time man. |

|  | Johnny and Joe | | Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: Chicago | | | Obviously, one of the greatest QBs to ever play the game. So, from that perspective, it's sad.
But--and despite my location, I'm not a diehard Bears fan, I haven't lived here that long--I'm so glad I won't have to hear sportscasters endlessly fawning over his "love of the game" anymore, or the constant speculation over his retirement that's come up every season for at least five years. (And Favre himself has only fed into this "will he or won't he?" hype.)

Well, now all those so-called Packer fans who were critical of Favre can finally see what he meant to the team.
Rodgers will be a good QB for the Packers...but man, we were spoiled by Favre.
It was a great, long run and now it's over.

Granted, it's a problem that he beat but it's still a shadow that hangs over his record.
