Packers-Farve "Lets make a deal"


The Green Bay Packers might have just made Brett Farve an offer too good to pass up. The Packers have reportedly offered Farve $20 million to retire as a Packer and stay that way. Should Farve agree to the deal it would put an end to the two month long saga that has been going on between the two sides.

In an interview with ESPN yesterday Farve had the following comment regarding the offer.

"There isn't a perfect solution to this, but Mark Murphy is at least trying. We know what they want and where I stand. His solution, although awkward and unsettling for most, may be the best in the end."
Getting $20 million to never have to take a hit again sounds like a pretty good deal to me. Then again, I'm not Brett Farve. I suppose you can't put a price on competitive drive, but the Packers sure have tried. Bret has made it clear that he wants to play again, but the Packers don't want him back and he is not going to make a team an instant Superbowl contender via trade. His chances of winning another Superbowl, whether it be with Green Bay or elsewhere, are slim. He might as just take the money and hang them up. No sense risking injury to, at best, finish in the same position he did after last season.
