Brett Favre Announced Decision to Retire
Brett Favre of the Green Bay Packers is retiring. The Packers officially announced Favre’s retirement on Tuesday morning. General manager Ted Thompson said in a statement:
“Brett Favre has informed us of his intention to retire from the Green Bay Packers and the NFL. He has had one of the greatest careers in the history of the National Football League, and he is able to walk away from the game on his own terms — not many players are able to do that. The Packers owe him a tremendous debt of gratitude. He has given Packers fans 16 years of wonderful memories, a Super Bowl championship among them, that will live on forever. Brett’s many accomplishments on the field are legendary. He leaves the game holding virtually every career passing record, plus his consecutive starts streak, which may never be duplicated.”
How sad for Packers fans! At least he can feel good about giving his Packers fans 16 years of great times.
