If this turns out to be true and I were one of his teamates I would punch him in the face. He's going to miss basically the entire preseason, meaning while everyone else on the team is doing the dirty work he's playing his little, "will he, won't he?" game. It'd be one thing if he actually didn't know, but everyone knows this is just his little yearly publicity stunt. Man, this is getting old.
Wow...and here I was thinking he might actually be done with the attention seeking. I wonder what he's going to do in a few years when there's no chance of him playing anymore...how will he keep himself in the spotlight then?JML897How is he seeking spotlight? He's not out in the open talking about these things, other people are. ESPN latch onto every single **** thing dealing with Favre and yet Favre gets all the hate for it.
You can't blame Favre on this one. This is entirely media. Favre's not the one going out and leaking things like this. Besides, does anyone think that he'll come back in the middle of a season and just take over? He won't be in any shape, unless he keeps working out with some NFL people, and if that's the case, then there's credability to this story, until then, it's just that---a story.
I don't believe it. To be honest, it sounds like some Vikings players felt like messing around with the media. :lol:
Rosenfels ok, but Tavaris? He's always been the backup and he was going to be the backup anyway. X360PS3AMD05well he's now the 3rd...
the same way michael vick will be put into the game. a roster update. I think vick should be in sometime this week and favre probably next week. Not sure when for vick though.on a side note, how does this work with Madden 10? Will it just be a DL patch to fix the Vikes roster? :)

It's gonna be MUST SEE TV!!! Wonder what the ratings numbers on that game. [QUOTE="limpbizkit818"]The Favre fan inside mejust jumped out of his seat :D
Packers v. Vikings is going to be so epic.

And if Favre wins one of those games, he becomes the first player in NFL history to beat all 32 teams. Another record ;)
There's one thing to say I'll keep on coming back from retirement, but it's another to come back from retirement after the preseason workouts and games. It just messes with the team chemistry a little bit.Yagr_ZeroAfter preseason games? There are still 3 games left.
The coaching staff just informed the team that Favre will be starting the next preseason game
That's gonna be interesting
Ok, that was fast... I'm guessing they said he won't join a few weeks ago just to get everyone out of their case? I guess so. This had to have been in the works for a while now.The coaching staff just informed the team that Favre will be starting the next preseason game

No way he could sign today and play as soon as next week or so without studying the playbook for a while.Please Log In to post.
