Brett Favre is Retiring for a Third Time

Yes for real this time, Brett Favre has decided not to return to the Minnesota Vikings more than likely due to his surgery not going as well as he had first thought.  Brett Farve has reportedly been sending retirement text messages to all of his teammates this morning.  Is this really for good though?  We have a long time until September.  Being a Cowboys fan this is music to my ears honestly.  I was kind of tired of hearing all about whether or not he was coming back but I do find it interesting that everyone in the media just assumed that he was coming back when he had his surgery and then he ends up not coming back.   He ends his career with the following staggering stats:
