I think the Packers have it figured out. For years Favre played that "I need to spend time with my family and may quit" game ad nauseum. Guess what! Family takes a back seat! They aren't the "Green Bay Favre". The guy was on a Super Bowl winner exactly once and was lucky to stay healthy and play long enough to set some records. I've been a fan of pro ball for 48 years and can think of at least 20 qbs I would rather have play a season or just one game than ole Brett. The guy is not the brightest bulb in the chandelier, but he knows if it weren't for his football ability he would be selling live bait or giving alligator tours in the swamps. He isn't now, nor was he ever, bigger than the game he played or team for whom he played . The Pack has paid him millions and he needs to show gratitude and humility, not arrogance and unappreciation. The rules of reinstatement/trading or transfer apply to him just like everyone else. No reason to indulge this guy. Everything that has happened has been a result of his decision, not the Packers. Let him accept responsibility and abide by the rules in place.

Favre is a good man.

Who cares. It is football, a game. I'm sick and tired of these "professional" athletes thinking the whole world revolves around them. Let's talk about important things in life, like how will the new head football coach at Arkansa perform this year.
