Favre in Purple

What would be your reaction if Favre decides to play yet another season with the Vikings? Gotta pad that all-time INT stat.

Good for the game?
Indifference?

Most of us here are hoping that he did this so he can sign a 1 day contract and retire as a Packer. But I think that the chances of that are very small. Just the language him and his agent are using makes it feel like last year all over again.

Everyone knows he wanted/wants to play for Minnesota to get back and Ted Thompson. If Favre goes through with it I'll be throwing away anything I own with a #4 on it. Between the talking with the Lions last season and this if it happens, its a little pathetic. He's said that he'll always be a Packer, and that is complete garbage by the way he is acting. Signing with the Vikings would be a spit in the face to Packer fans, and I don't think he cares, I think most of us in WI are seeing now that he is a pretty selfish guy. This would be like Jeter signing with the Red Sox, you just wouldn't think it. Jeter seems like too good of a class act to ever do that though.

I'll have a much longer rant on my next show.

By the way, doesn't Favre have a torn bicep... and I don't think he's had surgery yet, has he? Why would the Vikes want a relic of a QB with a bum arm? Stay retired.

That was what we were told at the end of last year, and there is no word yet about surgery. Although it was reported that he has hired a personal trainer. If he does play for the Vikings Ill be going to the game in Lambeau in Nov for sure, that be a interesting atmosphere.

From all accounts I'm reading it's a go for Favre to go to Minnesota! Unreal... I think he's tearing himself down bigtime.

Looks now like it won't happen. But that's Brett's MO . . . he'll wait till the middle of training camp to disrupt everything.

I learned a long time ago not to believe anything Favre or his agent Bus Cook says.

This is ridiculous:

And now the latest:

I hope Green Bay destroys them twice and then a 3rd time in the playoffs. But that would be the ideal outcome, probably not likely.

He needs to stop.

It's official...Brett is a Viking. I'm hearing pundits yelping that the Vikes are now Super Bowl contenders.

Stop the insanity. I can't believe I have to listen to Favre talk all year long.

Vikings are 7-1 and have swept the Packers. Big loss for Green Bay today at Lambeau.
