It's sad that a great career is going to come down to something like this. It does seem like a shame that the Packers don't seem to want him back, but I can see where the team is coming from. For the past few years, all you've heard during the offseason is "Will he or won't he come back?" I can see where the team would want to move on and plan for the future. You can't have your star player waffling about whether or not he is going to play. He is not bigger than the team ( even though he is sometimes made out to be that way.) And how can your teammates look to your star for leadership if he is always contemplating whether or not he wants to play? I was kind of hoping he would stick to his guns and stay retired. Why not go out when you still have something left in the tank, rather than risk being one of those guys who stick around for too long?

The Jets could certainly use him. I think the fact that he can't return to Green Bay is exactly what the packers secretly wanted. Make it impossible for him to return. The nearest thing to a win-win: The team can move on, and Farve can still play ( somewhere).
