I hope he is actually out for good this time!!! While it is true he is one of the best to ever play the game these antic's and games of his are a constant reminder that our modern day "greats" have no appreciation for what the GAME truely stands for. Its a sickening display that has been occurring for the last couple years and frankly i'm sick of it. He needs to hang it up while he still has some dignity and respect associated with his name. If this does indeed turn out to be some sort of publicity stunt, may Farve and the Vikings management rot in H*** for degradating the game..... The said thing is I was a Farve fan regardless of the jersey color but this man no longer is one of the great but simply mascarading as one....
GO JAY CUTLER!!!!!!!!!
Sorry I just couldn't resist bear fans......
Tight lines, Smooth trails and Big Racks to all!!!!!!

Hey WhiteDust,
I am a BEAR fan myself but lets face it with this post it was just a matter of time until someone "rubbed the Jay Cutler thing in". Maybe this is the year it all comes together and we once again see a formitable CHICAGO BEAR MACHINE.... Cutler definetly does have the talent if the team can pull it all together... Time will tell.
I really am a NFC fan hence my appreication for Farve and what he has shown us and done while playing the game. Its just that I am a bit of a Historian and Montana, Marino and others are great examples of what the game is and stands for. Farve has the stats and talent no doubt, no one can ever take that away from him. But to end your career not showing up to training camp and practice, leaving your teamates in constant limbo about your future, and the $$$$$ thats not what makes one a LEGEND of the game. I dont expect him to practice at training camp that would be ridiculous. But you could at least show up, support your team and fellow players and be the General of the team, sharing your wisdom and experience and helping build the Viking Machine rather than hop a plan the week before a game and expect the red carpet rolled out for you. Maybe a little more "Team Building" with the guys and last seasons costly "mis read, route timing issue", whatever he wants to call it might not of happened. I am very active in youth athletics and the power that youth sports can have on a young persons life is amazing. But I see to many kids today seeing our "modern day hero's" and believing that is what sportsmanship and the love of the game is all about. When it comes right down to it what still matters wether its the NFL, NHL, MLB is leading by example. I see it in all these kids at practice all the time. Regardless of the sport the next "Superstar" to show that type of dedication (which is almost totally lost in major league sports) will be able to proudly wear the title of the "NEXT GREAT LEGEND".

X2 totally agree but it is a business. I was at a highschool that an unamed Bear spoke. 1 kid asked why do you play for the Bears? Player responded very quickly "because they pay me a whole lot of money to play for the Bears". Really how true now days.
Players look a the offensive /defensive system then the money. Pro players exspect the guy next to him to do his job that simple. Peppers going to put the hurt on Brett if he comes back no one controls Peppers he will get to Brett. Cutler can't be worse than last year & will be benched if he starts off badly but Bear schedule is very difficult & will be lucky to break 500. I have a whole lot of respect for Brett's ability & history....the guy is magical. The retirement thing has tarnished Brett's image but Packers management did not handle things at all well either. On the other hand Brett proved doesn't matter which team line em up run down the field & look for the ball cause it's coming. Too many players quit on Cutler didn't run their patterns defense knew patterns better than offense. So with Brett the he is not gone until he is gone.

Whitedust, I too get the "its a business" mentality. But as with any business or profession simply being the "best in the business" should not be an excuse from the responsibilty. Should the best "brain surgoen" not have to do yearly continuing ed to refine his skills. Does that same surgeon not have an obligation to teach and mentor other surgeons by example and what it means and takes to be the best. I am in law enforcement for 17 years now. I have worked with cops from large departments down to "two horse" towns. I think any fellow brothers in blue would agree any street cop with the same self absorbed attitude as big as Farve's would eventually end up dead or with a serious a** beating. Any street cop who went to work not wanting to be part of a Team or work as a member of a team and be simply self absorbed would end up the same. Being the best shouldn't be an excuse. I am agreeing with you not argueing with you as I think were both on the same page. And I further more dont buy the arguement that he is just trying to make the decision thats best for him and his body because if that decision is that "HARD" to make year after year then I believe that deep down inside your body and mind has already made that decision for you and you (Farve) just refuses to come to terms with it. Again I am a huge Farve fan and will hate to see him go but the man is simply holding on to a dream or belief that we can all for the most part has seen has come and now needs to go. Just got home from work and asked the wife if we would still make our yearly "pilgramig" to Minneapolis to see him play. Went to two game last year just for that sake alone. Kinda really sad as my daughters have become football, Farve fans at ages 6 and 8 and were really looking forward to taking the whole family to a Farve game this year just for them.
Also excellent points on the Bears.... I was hoping for a little better that 500 but you are correct they are facing a real challenging schedule.
TIGHT LINES, SMOOTH TRAILS AND BIG RACKS TO ALL

news hinted towards 13million is not enuf.....17mil seems to of floated out of the air.....hahahah see ya in a few weeks Bart....oh wait Brett
I will believe it when the season starts. Welcome to our old world. The Queens would have been better off pursuing a different QB anyway.
I do hope it is true though, so the Queens will go maybe 6-10. Owners will again demand a new stadium, won't get it, they will pack up the team, move them to LA and once again MN will have lost a pro team. (Lakers, Stars, etc etc)
Good luck with TJ, should have gotten McNabb or Campbell would have been and even better choice. Have to learn to build a team.
