BRETT FAR FROM GONE; WILL RETURN IN 2006
After the former Dallas quarterback stated his belief that Brett Favre would retire, sources are reporting that our favorite gun slinger will return for a final season in Green Bay. General Manager Ted Thompson is pleased with the decision:
"The Green Bay Packers are very pleased that Brett has come to this decision, and look forward to a successful 2006 season," he said.
But will he going back to an improved team? It's unlikely. Javon Walker has asked to be traded and there are glaring holes everywhere on defense. Fantasy owners in leagues where interceptions count negatively may wish to avoid Favre and his 29 picks from a year ago.
Of course, Ahman Green has chosen to stick around. But he's really old.
