"I'm usually very quiet for a change," stated the father of two. "Deanna says you have to say something good or bad. I'm more sizing him up and what he's about. They've always been good with us.

"Who knows?" said the Packers signalcaller. "That (Super Bowl win) may give you a taste of wanting to do it again. Or you may say there's no better way to go out and now's the time. Fortunately, I haven't had to really think about it that much. We're enjoying the season and that's been more of the focus." For the record, it should be noted that fellow quarterback great John Elway didn't go out after one Super Bowl win, he went out after two in a row. "Either way it's going to be a tough decision and at some point it's going to happen.
