Lets see.......Favre isn't "Packer property" anymore, is he?
So it CAN'T be a "buy out", can it???
Now it would be called what at actually was all along......a business deal between him and the Packers.

"Then," Favre said, "they tried to buy me off to stay retired."

"Mike told me, hey, we're a better team with you on it but wanted to know if I have a problem with an open competition," Favre said. "I don't have a problem with competing -- you know that, but Aaron should be the starter right now because he's been out here all this time. This is more than about an open competition and I can do that, absolutely, but this is going to be mass confusion and that's not good for this team.

I found this ... very interesting. Anyone else?

VAN SUSTEREN: What about competing for starting quarterback?

FAVRE: Why?

VAN SUSTEREN: I'm just asking. I'm just asking that...

FAVRE: That's what I would ask them, Why?

Yeah.....we heard many different versions from Favre.
Which one is the REAL truth?
Which ever suited him at the time i guess.
In the end.........ancient history.........can't change any of it.
