Packers' quarterback Brett Farve began his career as an Atlanta Falcon in 1991. He was traded to the Green Bay Packers in 1992 and a legend was born. Throughout his 14 seasons as the Packers QB, Farve has made two Superbowl appearances, including winning it all in the 1996-1997 NFL Season.

Farve is a future Hall of Famer. He could run for governor of Wisconsin and win by a landside. Brett might as well own the state, because of his gusty playing since 1992. However, reality is starting to sit in, as Farve has to decide whether to retire from the game of football. Sure he could play a few more years and break some if not all of Miami Dolphins' quarterback Dan Marino's records. He has already won three NFL MVP Awards.

With the firing of longtime coach Mike Sherman on Monday, it appears that Brett Farve days in Green Bay are numbered. The team will not release Farve, but they have made it hard for him to come back in 2006. Besides after the beating he endured this season, you would think Farve would have already announced his plans to retire. Every week of this season, you wondered who would be starting at running back and wide receiver. Even if Brett decides to come back next season, I believe they might win 6 games.

Brett Farve needs to retire for his own sake. We want to see you walk up to the podium, when you are enshrined into the Hall of Fame. Everyone will always consider you to be the "gunslinger" of football.
