Brett Favre was the NFL's ultimate iron man for 19 years, inspiring coaches and teammates with unparalleled toughness and thrilling fans with a daredevil's verve and a showman's sense of the moment.

Yet the once-irrepressible Favre never looked older or more fragile than in year No. 20. The magic of last season, and most of his brilliant career, never seemed farther away.

It had to end some time. And Favre says that time is now.

As a lifetime Packers fan and former Favre fan, I'm not betting against him coming back again. Didn't really care that he told Julius Peppers last week to beat the Packers this week. That being said, Bart or Bert or whatever your name is, don't let the door hit you in the text package on the way out.

He can't retire...what about all those young defensive backs in college coming out to the pros...they will have no one to throw to them!
