FOXSports.com's Jay Glazer reports Brett Favre asked the Packers to trade him just after April's NFL Draft.
Favre was reportedly "fed up" with the organization and likely upset it didn't acquire Randy Moss. Mike McCarthy is said to have phoned Favre several times but the quarterback screened the coach's calls. Glazer says the Packers are now "primed to head into serious damage control to prevent any further uproar." The team doesn't plan to trade Favre.

Well.......I am kind of shocked and kind of not.
1 part of me cant imagine that Favre would come back just to ask for a trade, doesnt make a whole lot of sense to me unless he plans on playing for another 3 years. Why come back for 1 year to leave on this sour note ?
The other part of me isnt shocked at all. Favre pushed hard for Moss and when he saw that all NE gave up was a 4th rounder I am sure he was pissed. Add that on to the draft pick of Harrell over 1 of the numerous WR on the board and I can see Favre wanting out.
This will be interesting to follow, to say the least.
