It IS ridiculous because of what he has pout Green Bay thru these last few years....every year for awhile there has been a Favre watch...will he or won't he....will he or won't he and after awhile it became a beautiful car wreck that is bound to be repeated come next year should this one be a successful one.
And please......since you emphasized "Many"....please make a list....how many players at or near Favre's caliber contemplated retirement or actually retired only to come back?
Hmmmm....let's take a running head start.
Not Jerry Rice, nor John Elway....maybe Joe Montana. Trent Green needed one more concussed season to do him in.....Preist Holmes...nah...doesn't count.
Vinnie T only did it out of need and no one else was available, not out of hubris....
Heck I thought for a moment a long time ago, someone could coax Rich Gannon out because after he left the Raiders SUCKED...and still suck....
Deion Sanders did it so you can put him on your list....
I will let you continue....
