Luvs the story. I already got opening tickets (38$ early bird. I'm so savvy!) Maybe get 200$ for them now?

Do not underestimate favre-mania. It's going to be a cold, cold winter...and this economy is going to fucking suck, and people are going to be "believing" in Favre n shit.

Wow I should have thought about that. I almost got season tix last season. I relied on my friend to make a decision and of course he didn't. I kick myself in the face for that.

It's official that something is wrong with Brett Favre's back?

(This is how rumors start. <Grin>)

Actually the details of his potential 20th season have not been stated yet, so I took some liberties. They'll probably have a press conference tomorrow. But he's back in Minnesota and he's already signed so the thought is he is planning to play.

I like the fact that Jared Allen, Longwell, and hitchinson went down south to talk to Favre. I am only wondering what angle they played. Did Jared tell Favre to get his ass to pre-season? or did he give him the hero's flattery and talk about how the rookies need him and the team needs him>?

Is Karel dead? He should be all over this thread.

I'll say he's still a good qb, but minnesota is wasting money on him when they should invest in a good younger qb that will last more than 2 years.

They're in it to win it. You're basically saying they should be the Denver Broncos.

Like Tavaris Jackson and Sage Rosenfelt? Sorry there is no room ahead of Favre, but I hope there is a huge battle next year between 2 talented, HUNGRY, QB's. On the other hand, in the likely hood Favre might miss a game this year, they are most worthy back-ups

Minnesota has about as much of a chance with T-Jack as the Colts would have with whoever the hell is behind Manning.

I would rather build a team to last more than 2 years and be championship competitors in that time, than put all my effort into one all star team that will just fall apart when favre retires, and probably not be able to come close to the playoffs.

Those two are not very good, minnesota will most likely fall apart when favre leaves, and childress will look like the fool he really is.

Was there ever really that much doubt about Favre? Didn't Minnesota/Favre pull the same stunt last year when Favre announced that he would not come back because of injury than it was reported maybe 2 days later that he was practicing with the team? the whole thing sounded way too familiar to me from the get go...

Not true. The Vikes won their division with T-Jack. He's an OK QB. He's got solid pocket awareness and his passing game has improved under Favre's watch. But I do think he'll never be accurate. He could lead the Vikes to a championship but they'd have to rely more on defense and clock management.

Accuscore still had 8.9 wins / 53 percent chance the Vikes would make the playoffs with T-Jack. With Favre it goes up to 11.5 wins / 91 percent.
