Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre has decided to retire from the NFL after 17 seasons.
"He has had one of the greatest careers in the history of the National Football League, and he is able to walk away from the game on his own terms -- not many players are able to do that," Packers general manager Ted Thompson said Tuesday.
Favre's agent Bus Cook said the 38-year-old quarterback told him of his decision Monday night.
"Nobody pushed Bret Favre out the door, but then nobody encouraged him not to go out that door, either," Cook said by phone from his Hattiesburg, Miss., office.

I always liked Bret. He seemed like a classy guy. I grew up in a John Elway house...but everyone in my family has respect for this guy. He just wanted to play the game. That's the way it should be!

No...the Broncos are my team...BUT I barely pay attention to football anymore. I'm more of a baseball and hockey girl personally. Honestly, ever since Elway left I have paid little attention...
