I have to admit that I really admire his desire to play. His wife and kids seem supportive; I wonder if that's because they know how much he loves the game. But...
Brett, if you want to play, then, by all means, PLAY. Just cancel the annual "I'm Retiring" press conference thing. It's like when Elizabeth Taylor kept collecting wedding rings. After a half-dozen + times of pledging a life-long commitment to someone, people pretty much can see that the vow means crap.
Don't the rest of you wish that you had renounced the NFL like I did?

Not even Vick, Plax, Matt Jones, Chris Henry, Travis Henry, Brandon Marshall, Odell, Donte Stallworth, Leonard Little, Tank Johnson, Marshawn Lynch, Charles Rogers, and PacMan Jones can change your mind?

According to the blog, the longest the NFL has gone w/o having someone arrested in the last 3 years is 30 days. Pretty impressive.
