With what appeared to be a heavy heart, Brett Favre conceded to his fans today that he would be once again ending his retirement career.
"This isn't something I want to do," said a misty Favre as he reached for tissues repeatedly, "I no longer feel I can dedicate myself to being retired. This is why I will regretfully sign a contract with the Minnesota Vikings this afternoon. I am so sorry."
Favre has been battling the NFL for 4 years since his original retirement. While the volumes of photographs of his fishing trips and "spending time with his grandchildren" show a blissfully happy individual, they hold sharp contrast to game photos of his most recent forced "unretirement" with the New York Jets.
"It was just awful to see him out there like that. At 65 years old, just what is he supposed to do?" said friend and former teammate Donald Driver while being interviewed in a tanning bed.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell could not be reached for comment, but a representative at the league's central command bunker stated in no uncertain terms, the league "needed Brett Favre."
"I just want this nightmare to end." said Favre, "I want to be at peace."
