GREEN BAY -- Retired Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre told Sports Illustrated's Peter King this morning that he's not contemplating a comeback.

"That's the last thing I'm thinking about,'' Favre . "I have no idea where that came from, but it certainly didn't come from me. I'm happy about my decision and I haven't once said, 'I wonder if I made the wrong decision.' I know it's the right one.''

The Los Angeles Times reported Thursday that Favre's longtime agent, James "Bus" Cook, had quietly been inquiring whether teams might be interested in trading for Favre's rights should he decide to come out of retirement to play for another team.

Cook denied to The Times and ESPN that he was doing so, but an NFL source then told the State Journal that there was "at least something to" the story, although that source also said that Cook could have done his sniffing around without Favre's knowledge.

In the SI.com story, King reports that when the news broke, Cook called Favre and told him about it, and that Favre was surprised to hear that the story had gotten legs.

"It's crazy to me that I'm the guy they're all talking about, and the story is out there everywhere, and I have nothing to do with it,'' Favre said. "It's not something I'm thinking about. It's kind of funny. Even when I'm retired, they won't let me stay retired.''

King also reported that Favre was on his way to his doctor to have a possible hernia examined, and that Favre said he doesn't miss the physical part of preparing for the season.

Last year, Favre spent most of three months in the offseason working with live-in trainer Ken Croner, who got him in the best shape he'd been in for years.

"Not once have I felt like working out and getting ready for football,'' Favre said. "I just don't miss it.''

King asked Favre if he might start missing it when the season starts and whether he'll be tempted to play, and King said Favre responded with a "rambling discourse" and at one point said, "I suppose anything could happen.''

But 99 percent of what Favre said in a 20-minute conversation, according to King, was "very much about football being in the rearview mirror."
