Yes and self-respecting Packer fan should hold the individual above the team. Same case with Javon Walker, he wants to be on another team so instead of badmouthing him we should release him so he can be on another team where we can still support and respect him.
This team made Favre. They rescued him from being a fat lazy third string quarterback into a hall of famer. They made him filthy rich. He owes it to the team to keep playing if he feels that he can still do it, or retire if he thinks he can't. Leaving soley for the reason that the GM isn't throwing money at big names is ridiculous and I will be very dissapointed if he retires for only that season. To go through a career, have one losing season and quit, isn't very respectful to the fans. I could understand if it was a situation like Kevin Garnett in Minnesota where he is a superstar and they haven't been competitive and he deserves more, but Favre has been to two Super Bowls with this team and won one. They have been contenders just about every year he's played. You have to take some bad with the good.
