Is it for real this time?

Story is that Favre says he will not return to the Vikings.

I hope not....

If he does he does, he will still always be one of the greats.

Who cares.

I'm foregoing following the Brett Favre soap opera until my fantasy football draft...then I'll read up on it.

It will leave us Vikes fans out in the cold. Not literally since for some reason we play in a dome, but you get the idea. I am a fan, and would love to see him come back but I too am sick of the drama. The consensus around here is that this isn't the last of the story. Just a differenct tactic to make sure he can skip training camp. Either way it was sure fun to see him beat the Packers twice last year!

Favre is a publicity whore.

That being said, I hope he returns.

jmsremax · 08-03-2010, 01:46 PM

**crossing my fingers**

Don't get me wrong I enjoyed watching Favre play but enough is enough.

Make that three. As great as he was, I'm sick of all the drama-queen crap.

pektel · 08-03-2010, 04:16 PM

Actually, now that the media crap has started, I am 110% sure he will be playing. lol.

Not "most" of us, however. Most rabid Vikes fans are a few sammiches short of a picnic, in my opinion. Same guys that play fantasy football and agonize over stories like these.
While I may watch a game or two on TV, I won't go support them in any other manner.
They want a stadium, but they want me to pay for it. Sorry, Ziggy, why don't you and your multimillionaire friends build it yourselves.
They can take their demands for public monies and shove it up their diamond encrusted...

oops. Nevermind... got a little off track there.

Doubt he will stay retired. I say he will be back by the last preseason game.

08-03-2010, 06:33 PM

I loved to watch him play for the Packers. Hopefully he can get retirement right on the 3rd try.
