Is there anything left for him to do? For what it's worth, I think Favre was a player that most NFL fans enjoyed watching all the time. Packer fans only enjoyed watching him half the time. -
He said he has Aaron Rodgers as his Fantasy Football League QB this year. Interesting.Comment

That's certainly true in terms of how he handled things publicly. However, there's considerable debate about how he feels privately about Irsay's decision to let him go.Originally posted by Pugger View Post

Manning had ample opportunity to smooth over the narrative this week, to let Irsay off the hook for the awkward comments the Colts owner made to USA Today about why he let the quarterback go, comments that made Irsay sound, perhaps inadvertently, ungrateful for the one Super Bowl they won together.
Manning did not do it. He was clipped in declining to address what Irsay had said. This, then, was about what Manning did not say and the way he did not say it.
There is little doubt Manning's departure from Indianapolis was wrenching and that it still rankles. You don't say something like "I've learned that in life you need to be at peace with other people's decisions that affect you, that you have no control over," without revealing that the bromide has been put to the test in the past 18 months.
Brandt: Trades that could work
With the trade deadline fast approaching, Gil Brandt cooks up five hypothetical deals that would benefit all parties involved. READ
But since joining the Broncos, Manning has assiduously avoided addressing his exit. Bill Polian, the man who drafted Manning and was fired by the Colts not long before Manning was released, believes it is far more difficult for the quarterback to play games against his brother, Eli, than to return to Lucas Oil Stadium and oppose his old team.
Still, it was hard to watch Manning this week and not come away thinking he's angry at Irsay's remarks. And that the response Manning most wants to make will come in the final score, which he would undoubtedly prefer to be lopsided, to provide the resounding rejoinder to the notion that the Colts' decision to release him and move on with Luck was best for all parties.I can't run no more

I think it was entertaning; Favre said he may be in shape but he's not remotedly in football shape and he has no interest in playing football anymore. Somehow the discussion moved to how he plays fantasy football.......and AROD was his QB....and a light flipped on and he noted he had about 20 minutes to update and get his starting lineup inTERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWERComment

I wonder if this is for real?
At least this time, I'd have a helluva lot less angst about Brint coming back.
It'd be more like a sick curiosity.
Man, I was pissed when he joined the Queens.

It took a lot to convince Favre it was time to retire, but that last season in Minny did the trick.I can't run no more
