[QUOTE="AKCheese, post: 550397, member: 9828"] This started out as a discussion of biggest Packer peeve and that's where I'm leaving it, not going into Favre's imperfections that's another long road I'm not going down. Not why I came to this forum ( nor is THIS discussion actually), I will say obviously the annual "retirement" issue got tiresome. I think he made a genuine a comment early on and was amazed at the (over) reaction. Then he got asked about it at the end and beginning of each season. A few times I think he was amused like the time the press showed up at his golf tourney looking for an announcement. I think he played around with "them" and in a way it was funny in its ridiculousness but it hurt him and it hurt the GBP. I remember early on I expressed concern about him actually retiring and my dad scoffed (btw my dad loved the packers but really didn't have much time for any individual athlete) anyhow he just laughed and said "this is all BS, that guy will NEVER retire, they'll carry him out on his shield" which in essence is what happened. So the whole retirement drama "game" (and I think it essentially was a game) never should have been started by Favre and the Packers should have refused to "play" [/QUOTE]
