If you haven’t heard the news yet, the sports world is abuzz that Brett Favre has decided to retire for good. An anonymous, informed source has come forward with the news that Favre allegedly sent a text message to several unnamed Vikings teammates that “this is it” implicating that he won’t be returning for a 2oth season in the NFL. Is it really true this time? Favre did go through surgery and has gone on record that the recovery hasn’t gone as well as he had hoped. And it was reported that three Vikings head honchos were huddled up for the entire practice this morning, implying that they were talking about something major. But is this just hype created by the media just trying to get more ratings by stirring the same sort of offseason buzz as last year? Supposedly tomorrow an official announcement will be made by Favre and the Vikings. We’ll see what happens.
A little later than this time last year the same thing was going on. Either way we’ll keep you informed and let you know what the Brett Favre retirement will mean for Madden 11.
