Brett Favre appeared on Fox News Channel Monday night to explain to Greta Van Susteren why he is having second thoughts about retirement:

Favre said that the Packers' front office is trying to keep him from ending his four-month retirement and returning to the NFL.

"I was told that playing in Green Bay was not an option," Favre said. "Then I was told, 'We can't imagine, or can't envision, you playing for another team, as well.' What does that tell me? It tells me, 'We don't want you to play, period.'"

The second part of the interview is after the jump.
