Brett Favre: End of an era

Looks like Brett Favre will be retiring and return to the Green Bay Packers this year. After such a great year, it's sad to see him go. But I'm sure it'll be nice for him to end on a high note. The Packers will need to get a good quarterback to head up their fairly solid team next year. They are probably not in a strong position for the playoffs next year, but hopefully they can at least beat the Vikings a couple times.

It's too bad the Packers were unable to manage a Super Bowl game this year. One can take some heart that they got pummeled by the same team that went on to win the Super Bowl against the undefeated Patriots.

As everyone else will be saying, it is the end of an era for the Packers. My guess is that the loss of Brett Favre won't result in any problems filling up the stadium next season. (Unlike the Vikings.)
