Brett Favre, 40, is set to inform Minnesota Vikings personnel today that he is retiring from the National Football League. Favre retires as the career statistical leader in every major passing category. He will be remembered as one of the, if not the top regular season quarterback to ever play the game.

Love him or hate him, Favre was one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time. He started 285 consecutive regular season games, the record for non kickers. Favre was forced to receive ankle surgery after a series of cheap shots in the NFC Championship game by the New Orleans Saints.

So as it stands on August 2, 2010, Brett Favre is no longer part of the NFL. But, we all know Brett. The guy could decide the day before the opener against the Saints he wants to play. If he did that, Childress would give him the starting job and he could still drop 300 yards.

Good bye Brett Favre. Your child like love of the game will be missed.

I'll miss his child-like love of making millions and millions of dollars.

Favres got millions of dollars in the bank. You cant tell me thats what drove him the last 5 years to keep playing. Its not like he splurges on crazy stuff. The guy lives on a farm and dresses like a hobo.

Personally, I think he just got tired of the color scheme. My bet's he'll go back to blue, next. Or maybe he'll really mix it up by joining the Bengals...

Favre, TO and Ochocinco on the same team? An ESPN anchor's head would explode during Sportscenter probably.
