Shortest.... Retirement..... Ever.....

That didn't take long.

Junior Seau is looking to join the New England Patriots, just three days after the San Diego Chargers threw him a lavish retirement party.

...

"It's pretty easy. When a team doesn't want you or need you, retire, buddy," he told a crowd of about 300 family, friends, players and team executives Monday at Chargers headquarters.

He should have took care of looking for work before he retired. Apparently he didn't need to look hard.

Even as he announced his retirement, Seau said he was healthy and still able to play. Asked if his decision was irreversible, Seau said: "I can't answer that. I really can't.

"What situation can get me out of it? I don't know," he said. "If there's a need team out there, I'm definitely going to look at it. But we're almost halfway through training camp. I'm 37 years old."

Then why did you retire in the first place you attention whore?

"I'm not retiring. I am graduating. Today is my graduation day. Retirement means that you'll just go ahead and live on your laurels and surf all day in Oceanside. It ain't going to happen."

That's just the "deep" was a football player says "I'm looking forward to starring in local car dealership commercials."

Oh but those commercials will have to wait, perhaps only another 48 hours when Seau changes his mind again.
