Breaking News on Brett Favre!

I love this:

Favre, Childress talked on phone, nothing settled

Posted: May 8th, 2009 | NFL.com Staff | Tags: Brad Childress, Brett Favre, Minnesota Vikings, Scott Hanson

NFL Network’s Scott Hanson confirms that Brett Favre and Vikings coach Brad Childress had at least one phone conversation. But the talks were informal and exploratory. There was no absolute decision made either way to play for the Vikings or to stay retired.

At this point Favre is retired, but as his agent Bus Cook told Hanson yesterday, and another source told him today, Favre reserves his right to change his mind.

Hanson spent the day at the front entrance of Favre’s estate, but has been told that Favre will not comment publicly today or through the weekend.

Doesn't it get kinda hot in Mississippi to stand at his gate all day?

I would think with all the blowing of Favre, that should keep the reporters cool.

Knowing Brett, if he's coming back, he'll be ready.


He feels slighted by the Packers (Thompson and McCarthy in particular). He's absolutely NOT going to come into the division to be embarrassed. The Vikings have a pretty great team, minus the QB.

It's going to be a tough fight. Either way it will be entertaining, but everyone knows I have a dislike toward Favre. I really want the Packers to get the best of him.

I have a feeling you guys will be laughing your asses off over the next month. I'm already in the corner with my hands over my ears muttering "please make it go away"

You've only had the circus for a couple of weeks. Imagine going through it for a few years.

I have a newfound respect for you people. Most of you anyway!

Even if he is ready, how long will he be able to stay effective? He'll play through anything, but he doesn't always play well.

If this isn't just another chain yanking I'll go with Barnett's attitude. Love what you did for the Packers, but put on the Barney-colored jersey and I want to see your back on the turf.

I love all the media (and ESPN) coverage (praise, analysis) last night of how this 'decision' not to play was the right call... and then the sun set and came up again.

I will say this, at least Gene W. finally admitted he kisses Favre's ass.

Just wondering....Are the sources who say Favre has sent his x-rays to the Vikings any more reliable than the sources who said that Childress was traveling to Hattiesburg to meet with Favre?

Kindo of funny how no media outlet is reporting this. Not even Florio. I guess what I am saying is Pete, either porovide proof or STFU troll.

Good daily double here. Wrong and profane. Nice post.

I think major surgery on his head would be most necessary.

televised on Channel 12 news tonight

Now be a good guy and give a hearty apology to Paco

[Bretsky]

I asked you to provide a source. You did.

Just a wild guess, but it may have had something to do with how you asked.


I'm just glad Harlan and I never fought like this.
