Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the NFL water sans Brett Favre. He is almost officially back as it being reported by NFL Fanhouse that Favre is traveling to Minnesota where he is expected to sign with the team.
That Brett Favre got us again when he issued his retirement a couple weeks ago. The Vikings who had the equivalent of people quarterbacking their team named "Tarvaris" and "Sage", I think Brett Favre is an upgrade on some level.
I think the Brett Favre saga has taken alot out of us as NFL fans and well, let's be honest the hoopla is continuing to be furthered by the media (including us) and Favre himself. Could you tell me that "fake retirement" was just elobarate ruse? Does Favre have any real idea what he really wants? Can the Vikings trust him to play the entire season?
Favre is only hurting his own legacy by continuing his career. Most of us will probably remember Favre as a guy kept hanging onto the NFL, much like John Unitas, Joe Namath, and a slew of others. Sometimes you just need to know when to hang it up, Favre has yet to see that light. Although, having something taken away from you that you have toiled at for over 15 years is difficult, you have learn eventually to let it go.
Congrats Minnesota Vikings fans, you got your quarterback but in the end I think, Favre has really got you.
He's Back, Brett Favre is a Viking after all
