I hope your right!!!

As old as he is, I love watching him play. He is far from washed up as many people who don't understand the difference between a player with heart and a player who plays the game just for the money!!!

The guy is a coach killer, he just can't play in a system.
His teammates on the jets hated him.

Yeah... Jesse Ventura..... Al Franken... and now Fav-ray?


Yes, folks, MN is the laughingstock of the nation in some way shape or form yet again.
I was thinking of a leper/mime/John for the next governor.

Lemme know if the Bears sign him to back up Cutler....otherwise, I don't care either. :r

He is just dragging this out way too far. Retire and stay retired!!!

Vikings...really?! I use to LOVE this man, now he's definitely lost my respect. Should have stayed in Mississippi fishing and actually spending time with his family like he originally planned. I will laugh when he's wearing purple and sits the bench because the old man can't play a whole season. Hero to zero. I think at this point I'd rather be a BEARS fan!!!!! :c

I assume that your Husband is a Bears fan, treading lightly may help marital bliss....

Hey sassy pants, I was just venting! Besides, I don't pick a team based on a guy or what color uniforms they wear! I mean Tom is a Cubs fan but I'll always be a Brewer fan :)

I don't think he's washed up. Here are a couple of statistics from the last couple of seasons:

Greenbay 2007 w/Favre:
13 Wins - 3 Losses
435 points for / 291 points against

Greenbay 2008 without/Favre:
6 Wins - 10 Losses
419 points for / 380 points against


Jets 2007 without/Favre:
4 Wins - 12 Losses
268 points for / 355 points against

Jets 2008 w/Favre:
9 Wins - 7 Losses
405 points for / 356 points against

Agreed. I think his hatred for Ted Thompson is enough to bring the best out of Favre. It sounds like Favre wants to play for Minnesota just as badly as Childress does. And according to NFL sources, Favre is agreeable to undergoing a surgery to complete the cutting of the tendon in his bicep.

I hope so brother! :tu Even if we do get Favre and he plays well, I still have to keep in mind that I'm a Minnesota sports fan and inevitably my heart will get ripped out at some point in the season. But whatever happens, it will be unbelievably awesome to see Favre play the Pack in Lambeau wearing a Vikes jersey. :D

I loved Brett, but I am first of all a Packer fan. I wanted him to come back, but I also realized some things were going on that needed to be worked out.

Here is a summary of how I see this whole mess - from the beginning.

For three years, Green Bay put everything on hold while the man made a decision whether to play or retire. Their free agency moves and draft picks were made figuring he'd be in the mix.

In 2008, they pushed him to make a decision, yes. But Green Bay asked him - three times, if he was coming back - they wanted him to do so. Three times he said, "NO!" Then, made an emotional, tear-jerking announcement as such.

In the free agency market and draft of 2008, the made their moves, building a team "knowing" (by Brett's own announcement) that they would not have #4 in the line-up.

Then, he wants to come back. GB says, "We've made our moves without you. We've built a team that doesn't revolve around you. If you want to come back, realize that."

Brett, "I want to come back, but on my terms. If I cannot, then let me go."

And now, he wants to stick it to the Packers? OK, to Ted Thompson? I just don't get that.

A great player? Yes.

Still some gas in the tank?
Perhaps.

A mature team player?
Not a prayer.

He could have retired as an icon (and probably still will be considered one after all the smoke has cleared), but he has certainly burned some bridges along the way.

I wish him well and in the right system with a team around him, he may be able to help. The Vikings fit that bill.

I hope he does come back and play for the vikings...I think Harvin gets rookie of the year awards then.

So looks like he send his X-rays to the Vikes after saying he was for sure not coming out.
More drama!

Farve drops back ... throws the long ball ... and it's complete for a 20 yard gain!

" ... don't go away mad ... just go away ..."

A man is entitled to a job, if he's still able to work - don't matter if he's a QB or a plumber. Besides, he spent last year as my neighbor (well, sort of), and everybody in these parts had nothing but nice things to say about him. They thought he was a dumb redneck, but a nice one.
