Report: Packers Official Thinks Favre Will Stay Retired
9th July, 2008 - 5:21 pm
ESPN - The current and former presidents of the Packers believe that Brett Favre will remain retired rather than return to the field for his 18th season, according to ESPN.com.

"I keep going back to his retirement announcement and how sincere and heartfelt that was," current CEO Mark Murphy said. "I think it's pretty reasonable that, as an organization, we're going to move on."

"What I remember about him is he was ready to retire, and that's how I feel today," former chairman Bob Harlan added. "I think down deep, that's exactly how he feels."

ESPN's Chris Mortensen reported last week that Favre communicated his desire to return to coach Mike McCarthy, but that talks had not advanced to a substantive stage. [READ]
