A Favre retirement would send tremors through Wisconsin, but especially through the Packers organization. Does that mean that the 8-8 season was just a farewell tour for Favre? Was the progress a mirage because they're going to have to break in a new quarterback? It's plain to see why McCarthy bristles at any questions about Favre. He probably sees his Packers tenure flashing before his eyes with the thought of Aaron Rodgers taking over.
It's easy for media and fans to tell Favre to come back. In reality, he deserves the right to make the call that's best for him and his family. He delivered 15 years of terrific work and a style that was a blast to watch. If he's gone, he's left us with an incredible legacy that will be remembered forever.
