On Sports Center: Adam Schefter and Chris Mortenson have reported that Favre will sign a contract with the Vikes today.
Favre a Viking Lord help us. Chris Mortenson reporting it will be a deal between 10-12 million. Contract will be signed this afternoon.
The funny thing is, Favre and Vick's return does not effect the Dolphins very much at all. Favre makes TO look like a wall flower, what a little drama queen that one is.
Colin Cowherd said he would do a show in his underwear if Favre ever unretired. Cowherd is such a jerk I'm looking forward to it happening.
Here is hoping that he has his career ended by the Packers during their first meeting. I really can't stand Farve. He is an attention whore of the worst kind. So lets see... He has skipped mini camps, OTA's, and training camp; yet wants to be part of that team. He skipped camp because he didn't want to put in the work and live like they lived; yet wants to be part of the team. Sage and Jackson thought they were competing for #1; yet they are nothing but clip board jockeys once again. One major problem with the Jets was that he had no chemistry with the team; yet he hasn't taken one snap with the Vikings. He cried how much he loved the Packers and the fans; yet he just took a huge dump on them. He then says he is going to stayed retired; yet he knew all along that he was going to play. btw...Sage and Jackson, don't expect Farve to help you further your progress. Look how he refused to help Rogers if you need to know just what kind of leader and teammate Farve is. F FARVE!
Ironcially, I got this off a Jets board. Funny to see them dog the Vikes when they did the same thing. Except they actually HAD a solid QB before acquiring him.
I think you nailed it in the bolded print. He wants to have his cake and eat it too. He was one of my favorite QBs, now he's a punk.
I can confirm this is true. KFAN radio AM 1130 is reporting Favre has just landed here (aboard Zygi Wilf's airplane) in MN to sign a contract with the Vikings. He JUST got in a private Escolade to head over to Winter Park.
Oh for ****'s sake!! GO AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well that's just great. Now I have to spend another offseason hearing about this douchebag next year. I really don't like to wish injury on any player (maybe with the exception of Tom Brady) but I think I'm feeling a deep down hatred for this guy, and wouldn't quite mind seeing him carted off the field on the last play of his career. Too far?
My SGM is a Vikes fan, when I told him, he was pissed. Then went through the roof when I told him how much they were going to pay him. Oh, man, nice payback for the crap he gave me over our 1-15 season.
Stardate 1270045: General Kruge to his 2nd wife after discovering her infidelity: "I will never forgive this, nor will I punish you....today. Just never forget the next words from my mouth. Revenge is a dish best served cold. Now go make me a sandwich you whore."
its definitely true. ESPN is showing live shots of favre walking with Brad Childress at the Vikes facilities.
Vikings are payiing him 12 million. What if it turns out that he just does not have it anymore and turns oout being really bad. They would be paying him 12 million to be bad. They screwed over Sage and jakson. If I were them I would be pissed.
Mods: I'd like to suggest that we change the title to "BREAKING NEWS: Brett Favre is Still a Douche" Seriously, how egomaniacal is this guy?
I seriously don't know how this betters the Vikes 1 IOTA. He was EXTREMELY mediocre last year, this screws over the 2 QB's they atre trying to bring along and now they will have to cater to this Asshat. Another thing, Fayvree just alienated probably 1/2 of his fanbase.....again
Farve is such a drama queen that in 20 years when he retires after unretiring 15 times will induct himself into the football hall of fame.
I hope he throw three picks for every TD then maybe nobody will even answer the phone when his *** calls next year.
I think you guys are underestamating the impact this has on the NFC. Everyone that bad mouths his jets tenure forgets he came into a new system and was running it remotely well after a very short time. He never intended to stay in Jets land anyways, and he hurt his shoulder later in the year. His whole plan...all along was to play for the Vikings. He has plotted and schemed his way to the team he wanted to play for and now is in a system that he knows and is comfortable in.
