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).

It seems Farve didn't deliver the championship that the NY writers were glowing about only one month ago. Now, of course, he's a bum. Although, I would have to say that he looked like crap the last month. It was just so funny hearing the press rave about him and the Jets last month, predicting an all NY superbowl. Now that the Jets have collapsed ( again ), and that Mangini is taking the hit, the question is who will coach the team, and who will be the quarterback. Judging by some of the comments of the players, there seems to be some resentment about the fact that Farve missed training camp with his whole will he or won't he routine, and they seem resentful that the coach was thrown under the bus while Farve will enter another off-season of questions of his future.
