Favre leaning toward returning

Wow, another year for Farve to cement the fact he'll go down in history as a better quarterback than Dan Marino. ;)

GREEN BAY, Wis. - If Brett Favre is leaning toward returning for another season with the Green Bay Packers, he hasn't discussed it yet with his coach.

Packers coach Mike McCarthy hardly seemed convinced comments from Favre to his hometown newspaper on Thursday that he was leaning toward playing another season amounted to an official decision.

"I'm trying not to laugh, but I have not been part of any conversation with Brett on that topic," Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. "And I think we need to just move on and focus on Seattle, because that's what we are focused on. I'm sure that's what he's focused on."

In a story posted on the Web site of the Biloxi (Miss.) Sun Herald on Thursday, Favre said he isn't approaching Saturday's playoff game against Seattle like it will be his final game in Green Bay. He seemed more optimistic than in years past about returning.

:thumbsup:

scrambling, underhand desperation pass to Lee in the 2nd by Farve (which led to a TD on the next play?)

As the announcer said, "just when you thought you've seen it all!"

And believe me, as a 49er fan, it kills me to praise Farve. But he's unreal.

Franchise record 28 first half points for Green Bay!!! :wow:

he is probably the biggest competitor I've ever seen at that position. I also saw him play Auburn a couple of times in college. He was pulling those same stunts back in 1990 and upset Auburn. He would also at times make boneheaded plays that cost Southern, but it was just his competitive nature.

Green Bay 35 Seattle 17

10:25 3rd

Unreal.

he's been just the best for us fans, and football. :party: :toast: :bounce: :thumbsup: :loveya: :headbang: :yourock: :woohoo: :applause:
