They're already prepping the magazine.....lol
He is a little .
Let him crap on his legacy.
And good day to you as well kind sir.
Dude's talking to some coaches or something in connection with the Viking's gig. Honestly, I'd love to see him on the Vikings....would make for one interesting storyline in a division stacked full of them this season.
They're already prepping the magazine.....lol
Classic.
I'm officially hoping he gets injured. Preferably while stepping out of his car.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Just when Brett Favre looked to finally be out, the Minnesota Vikings could be pulling him back in.
Citing an anonymous source "with direct knowledge of the discussions between the two parties," ESPN reported Tuesday that Favre is scheduled to meet with Vikings coach Brad Childress later this week about a possible comeback with Minnesota.
Favre's agent, Bus Cook, did not immediately return a phone call to his Mississippi office left by The Associated Press.
Childress did not immediately return a message. A Vikings spokesman declined to comment on the report.
Both Favre and Cook have said this spring that Favre intends to stay retired. But Favre's statement after he was released by the New York Jets last week left the door open.
"At this time, I am retired and have no intention of returning to football," he said.
Those three little words - "At this time" — set off rampant speculation that he was indeed considering a second return to action.
Childress said Friday he had been too busy to concentrate on Favre, but did acknowledge the subject would soon be broached.
"We talk about everything," Childress said then, "from what's going on in the United States on the front page today. ... We talk about everything, so yeah, I'm sure we'll talk about that."
It wouldn't be the first time.
Favre spent 16 seasons in Green Bay, retiring in 2008 after leading the Packers to the NFC le game. He changed his mind a few months later, which set up a long and messy soap opera that ultimately led to his trade to the Jets.
It was believed all along that Favre, after hearing Green Bay's plans to go with Aaron Rodgers at quarterback, wanted to come to NFC North rival Minnesota so he could exact some revenge on the Packers.
But the Packers would have none of it. The team filed tampering charges against the Vikings, alleging improper contact between Favre and Vikings offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell, a friend of Favre's from his days as Green Bay's quarterbacks coach.
The league cleared the Vikings of all charges. Green Bay included in the trade to New York a clause that made it all but impossible for the Jets to turn around and ship Favre to the Vikings.
But when the Jets granted the 39-year-old Favre his release last week, it made him a free agent who is eligible to sign with any team he chooses. And many experts say the Vikings are a quarterback away from being a legitimate Super Bowl contender.
With unproven veterans Sage Rosenfels and Tarvaris Jackson slated to duke it out in training camp for the starting job, it would come as no surprise that the Vikings would at least consider adding a three-time MVP who holds the career records in every major statistical passing category, including interceptions.
But the move would not come without questions.
After an impressive start to his first and only season in New York — he threw a career-high six touchdown passes in a win over Arizona in Week 4 — Favre's production dipped considerably over the final five games while he dealt with shoulder and biceps injuries. He threw nine interceptions in that span and the Jets stumbled to a 1-4 finish.

Brett Favre is an attention . It's been the same thing with him every year for four or five years. Good things the Packers finally put an end to his nonsense. When he physically can't play anymore, he'll come up with some other silly antics to keep himself in the limelight.
lol @ attention
He's pulling a Michael Jordan!
Vikings will win the Super Bowl this year with Captian Farve at the wheel
Not again! He's takin over ESPN again...ugh.
Dude needs to go away, now.
I'm so tired of this mother er.
I hope he does come back and takes a vicious hit that ensures that he stays out of football for good.
Besides, at this point, Favre throws more INTs than TDs. Tavarias can do that already.
Retire already man..
But I think he's an upgrade to Tavaris Jackson anyway.
Viks could go far this year, but it looks like the Bears will fight them
for the division IF favre does come back.
Which he probably will.. -_-
How is Favre being an attention ?
The Vikings are pursuing him, not the other way around.
Favre rebuffs Vikings, will stay retired
The Minnesota Vikings will not sign free-agent quarterback Brett Favre(notes), a source close to the team told Yahoo! Sports on Thursday.
The source said Favre told Vikings coach Brad Childress that he wanted to remain retired in a phone call that took place sometime in the last day. Favre is expected to publicly explain his decision soon.
Favre retired after the 2008 season, which he spent with the New York Jets. There was speculation that the Vikings were interested in bringing in a veteran to compete with Sage Rosenfels, who was acquired this offseason from the Houston Texans. Rosenfels is atop the depth chart heading into training camp, with Tavaris Jackson and John David Booty also on the roster.
