Kerry Collins isn't SELFISH like Favre!!

A QB READY TO RETIRE
While attention is focused on Favre, the quarterback most likely to retire is former Oakland Raiders signal caller Kerry Collins.
Kerry Collins apparently would rather watch games on TV than from the sidelines.
Those who know Collins say he is seriously considering retirement, and it would not be surprising if he never played another down in the NFL.
Having made the money he has over 12 seasons in Carolina, New Orleans, New York and Oakland, Collins doesn't have the burning desire to play football the way he once might have.
The only team that has spoken with him about the possibility of playing for it this season is the Baltimore Ravens. But the Ravens aren't offering Collins, 33, Collins enough money right now to make it worth his while.
If a more lucrative offer doesn't materialize -- and it doesn't look like it will -- Collins is finished with football.
Wow, he will only play for cash? I wish Favre was more like him and not sooo selfish to want his team to improve.

He's a free agent....that's what they do, go look for money. Favre is under contract and a leader on the team. I'm not sure saying "I'll see if you guys are any good before I decide to report" is the exact same thing Mad. I guess if he wouldn't have said anything to anyone except "I haven't decided if I want to retire" most of the critisism wouldn't be warrented IMHO.
