When I heard the news that Bret Farve was calling it quits, it was like I just attended a funeral. I was in mourning for a week or more. After all the Packers came within an eyelash of going back to the big dance. I didn't think it would end quite this was. But after listening to the press conference, I understood why Farve decided to move on. I was in a similar situation working in a high stress field and after a while you get burned out. I have no doubt that Bret could have played for another two or three years if he chose to do so. But we all know good things come to an end at some point. The good news is we still have a kick ass team. Mccarthy has proven to be a good field general, and Thompson has surprised me, whey last year at this time I thought he had his head in the sand.
