[QUOTE="tarkenton10, post: 30185, member: 67"] That is a loaded question on this board and emotions about a great player are usually deep. I think he has lost some of his desire, the way he talks and the fire I see on the field. He is still a great competitor but I don't see the same Favre of a couple of years ago getting in Sapp's face. I think the game may be wearing on him a little bit. I would say my guess is about 70% he will retire after this year. If Sherman goes about 85% Favre will retire. He would have to learn a whole new system and hear about how it is time to give Rogers a chance. You know every year there will be a growing percentage that will say it is time to start the new guy. Favre doesn't want to hear that, and he won't have a much better year next year unless you fix your O-line. They are not run blocking well and that leaves you one dimensional and Favre a sitting duck in the pocket. No one plays forever and I like seeing players go out on top. Not washed up looking like an old fighter getting pummeled on the ropes (Muhammed Ali). One of my heros was Joe Namath, seeing him leave the game battered in a Rams uniform was disheartening, I think many of you who don't want Brett to retire are going to regret it when you see him like Broaway Joe!!!
