1. Don't worry. I hate Brett Favre as much as you do. And Packers fans should KILL him because you can preach love of the game, hard to let go as much as you want. Favre meeting with the Vikings reeks of getting back at Green Bay. And the more intelligent Jet fan should be thankful Brett the Jet was a one and done disaster, but this feels like an elaborate two-year scheme: Retire from Green Bay but make it look like they shut the door on me. CHECK. Then since I can't go to Minnesota, I will go to the media capital of the world. CHECK. Then after I suck away the end of the year, retire and get let out of my deal even though Woody Johnson wants me to come back. CHECK. And now I'm free to be a Viking.
2. From ESPN: A source close to Favre told ESPN's Chris Mortensen that how the injury heals will play a role in the quarterback's decision. Translation: Daily Brett Favre updates on ESPN, and weekly Peter King Monday Morning QB columns for at least the next month.
3. Rip Favre all you want. But why isn't anyone blaming the Vikings? Do they really think Brett Favre makes the difference from 10-6 to 13-3? Did they watch the last five games of 2008? Do they understand that his shoulder and arm is being connected by a string right now? Do they really think Mr. Wrangler Jeans Captain America Gunslinger is a great fit for an offense predicated around the best RB in the NFL, and a bunch of track star receivers who thrive taking short passes and turning them into big plays? This can't make sense as anything more than an economy play on the Purple People Eaters part.
