Brett Favre Announces Retirement!

False. You just made this up. That is a dead link and I can not find this story anywhere on the internet which means it is false!

I WAS true at the time apparently. PFT has the timeline. The Packs website has done a U-turn. Guess Brett even has his own team dizzy with all his "Yes/No" shennanigans! LOL.

FAVRE'S STATUS WILL LIKELY BE BROKEN BY THE SUN-HERALD

As a member of the national media astutely pointed out to us this afternoon, any announcement that Packers quarterback Brett Favre will retire will come not from the team or any Wisconsin-based newspaper, but from the Biloxi Sun-Herald.

Favre, a Mississippi native and offseason resident, is tight with sportswriter Al Jones, and the thinking is that Favre would feed to Jones any big news regarding Favre's status.

Meanwhile, there's an expectation in media circles that Favre will make an announcement on his future next week. A growing number of league observers think that he will call it quits.

Regardless of how it all turns out, Thursday's inadvertent posting of a live page on the Packers web site that announced his retirement ended up being a huge deal. And little did we know that we "broke" the story. According to John Clayton of ESPN.com, we did.

Thank you, John. Given the recent departure of Sean Salisbury from ESPN, we have a feeling that we can forge a solid relationship with Mr. Clayton under the time-honored notion that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend."
