Packers.com Says Farve Will Retire, Quickly Pulls Story

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP)—Brett Favre’s retirement lore is becoming almost as popular as his on-the-field heroics.

On Thursday, the Packers’ official Web site briefly reported he was retiring, but the page under the breaking news section was live for only a few minutes.

“There’s nothing to it,” Packers spokesman Jeff Blumb told The Associated Press. “People who handle our Web site had set up a dummy page in the event he was to retire. They were asked to take down that page.”
A call by The AP to Favre’s agent, Bus Cook, was not immediately returned.

Cook told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that Favre, in his annual rite of winter, had not made up his mind whether to return for his 18th season. The three-time MVP’s decision one way or the other is not expected this week.

Re: Packers.com Says Farve Will Retire, Quickly Pulls Story

Farve will only retire if he becomes seriously injured or his coach makes him a backup due to ineffectiveness. If it was up to Favre he'd play until he can't walk anymore and even then it would still be a toss up.
