It's an unlikely scenario but not something you can write off entirely.

I doubt Favre would just start getting fat. I think he'd still be in playing shape.

You just know deep down Favre wants to come back so that article does not surpise me.

There is a difference between him being in shape and being in playing shape. Last off season he worked out the hardest in his life, a 38 year old dosen't just walk back into the NFL in the same shape he was while working his ass off. Sure, he stays active working on is land or whatever, but it'd take him awhile to get back into mid season form.
Perhaps this is why the Packers haven't signed a backup yet, he told MM this while they talked...;)

He created it himself by saying that all he does these days is work on his land.

He'd be in better shape than Vinny Testaverde. Not sure he'd be able to come in and take the team deep into the playoffs, but I'd still take Favre after a helf year of inactivity over most of the QBs littering the NFL landscape right now.

I forgot about the BowFlex. I bet Lord Favre gets his swell on with his bowflex everyday in his Wrangler jeans listening to a radio with Rayovac batteries and a mouthful of prolosec OTC. All of this is going on right next to his car from Bergstrom auto.
On day 10 boys came over for craw fish.

Hahahaha that's good stuff. I love Favre's endorsements they're all so random it seems. I mean what makes him choose any company? I only really understand why he's with Wrangler.

Poor Favre. The guy must be booored as hell. Football is the only thing he knows and after catching up with his family for a few months you can be sure he'll be itching to comeback especially if he sees Green Bay struggle, that would kill him.

Heard on the news that Luke Swan had a private workout with the Packers today for all you Badger fans like myself.

I think 5 years is fair. If it was 3 years then Deion Sanders would have already been enshrined when he came back.

yeah, needs to be 5 so guys who retire a little early cant come back. Doesnt happen much but Deion is a case and what if a guy like Barry Sanders had decided to come back for a year to try to win a ring or something. Wouldnt be the biggest deal or anything if something like that happened but people wouldnt want it so 5 is just a lot safer than 3.

we could change it to one year and it still wouldn't be enough for Brett to get inducted since he's coming back.

5 years is right.
In Reggie White's case though, it was too long.

Too short, I think with some players they need time for people to really apprecate what someone has done in their career.
