[QUOTE="route25, post: 61390, member: 485"] I guess ultimately it comes down to just whether or not you want to play and run the risk of being 4-12," Favre said at the news conference. "There’s always that risk, just as there is a chance of us being 12-4. I would be more surprised if we were 12-4. Anything could happen. "I never thought we would ever go 4-12 in my tenure here in Green Bay and we did. Nothing surprises me anymore. That’s something I have to live with, if I’m willing to go through that again. (Those are) the options I’m weighing." When did Brett Favre become so afraid of failure? Of course there is a chance Favre could go 4-12 if he comes back. Every player in the league deals with that possibility. One of the things that made Favre great is that he refused to allow temporary failure to change the kind of player he was. How many times have we seen Favre throw an interception, and then come back the very next drive, slinging the ball downfield, as he led the Packers to a score? How many times has Favre followed up a bad game with a great one? Who can forget the game Favre had the night after his father died. Favre said later he was scared to death when he went out there, afraid he would fall flat on his face. BUT HE WENT OUT THERE ANYWAY! He went out and had a legendary game, inspiring his teammates as they lifted him up. And now he doesn't know if he wants to come back because there is a chance the season might not go well. Anyone who's been around as long as Brett should realize that there are a lot of things players can't control. All you can do is go out and play your best. If Brett wants to play, he should play. If he wants to retire, he should retire. But enough with the soap opera already. [/QUOTE]
