Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre is returning for the 2007 season, he said this morning in an exclusive interview with Al Jones of the Sun-Herald of Biloxi and Gulfport, Miss.

"I am so excited about coming back," he told Jones. "We have a good nucleus of young players. We were 8-8 last year and that's encouraging. My offensive line looks good, the defense played good down the stretch. I'm excited about playing for a talented young football team."

Of course he's back!

Brett Favre wants to break a few NFL QB records that are within his grasp.

Now TT can think about trading or releasing Favre.

Favre reportedly will play one more season
Associated Press

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Brett Favre will return for his 17th NFL season, undeterred by his injuries and hoping to lead the Green Bay Packers back to the playoffs.

"I am so excited about coming back," the 37-year-old quarterback said Friday on Web site of the Sun Herald in Biloxi, Miss. "We have a good nucleus of young players. We were 8-8 last year, and that's encouraging.

"My offensive line looks good, the defense played good down the stretch. I'm excited about playing for a talented young football team."

The team had no immediate comment on the report.

As he has done in the past several offseasons, Favre returned to his home in Mississippi after the season to deliberate about his future. Last year, Favre waited until late April to tell the team he was returning.

The league's only three-time MVP, Favre left the field in an emotional scene in Chicago after leading the Packers to a victory over the Bears to finish the season 8-8.

Favre has started 257 consecutive games including the playoffs, an NFL record for quarterbacks. He broke Dan Marino's record for career completions (4,967) in 2006 and is closing in on Marino's marks for career touchdown passes (420) and yards passing (61,361).

Favre complained about nagging injuries and the drudgery of practice toward the end of last season, then choked back tears as he talked about missing the game and missing his teammates in a television interview immediately after the regular-season finale in Chicago -- leading many to believe he intended to retire.

Apparently, he couldn't resist one more chance to try to lead the Packers back to the playoffs after the Packers won their final four games and was in playoff contention until the final weekend of the regular season.

Favre has led the Packers to 10 postseason appearances, six division titles, three NFC Championship games, two Super Bowls and one championship following the 1996 season.

Favre, traded to Green Bay after one season as a backup in Atlanta in 1991, has had just one losing season in his career.

Happy Days remain again,
Rodgers clipboard sidelined again,
Brett Favre leads the Pack again,
Record setting plays again.

Lambeau Field erupts again,
The gun flung a touchdown again,
Celebrate with smiles and fun again,
Happy Days are here again!!

Superbowl time. Favre + Ahman Green + donald Driver= superbowl

If I recall correctly, all three of these guys were on the team last year.

And all those other players that have improved, coaches getting experience, and the draft.
