Was just on the phone w/ my bro who is a part owner of the Red Sox and a huge hedge fund manager (very well connected guy) and he just told me that reports are out that Favre has retired!! Very bittersweet...the best thing for the Packers but I'm very sorry I'll never see him throw a pass again.

I know there's a certain charm to being first with these things, but I'm going to wait for a better source than your brother, regardless of how well-connected he is.

Sadly enough it is true...my bro is also very well connected and knows east coasts brother's neighbor's uncle. He is confirming the report as well. Very sad indeed...

I can understand perfectly your skepticism but give me credit for the scoop when it's confirmed, OK.

What was the exact rumor? If he has filed his retirement papers, it should be breaking any minute.

What should we do to you if it turns out to be false?

I edited the subject. It's not responsible to post a rumor as fact.

Wrong. If Favre does indeed retire, the Packers will be something $15 million below the salary FLOOR. They will be required to spend that money per the CBA.

Well played, Turks


ecb - I'll give you props if there is an announcement today... otherwise, anyone can speculate on this. We are one week away from the draft and the odds are getting better everyday that we will hear from Favre on this subject.

Somebody let Brett know that he's been retired by Red Sox ownership.
