Some of these Vikes are dumb if they would rather have T. Jackson as their QB. With a back like Peterson and pro-bowl qb like Favre, Vikes would have a good chance to get to the superbowl. Its not as if Favre has to carry them like the jets or the pack. But as a Saints fan, I hope they implode.

Favre is the man.

Imagine being 39 years old and still thinking and acting like a preening pre-teen girl

Brett should have called it a career after Green Bay, remained a hero up there and been in the hall of fame in 4 more years.

He reminds me of Joe Namath and Johnny Unitas, QB’s past their prime who wanted nothing more than one more day in the sun. Instead, they went out with a whimper..

As a Packer team owner I’m thrilled to hear this.

Brent Who?

Kidding.

He was cheesehead royalty here in WI. Now he’s toxic waste.

Even after he unretired and went to the Jets, his merchandise wasn’t selling in stores here.

Now to the VikeQueens? That’s just beyond the pale.

Signed, Former Farve Fan,,,yes I am a little bitter...

The Vikings deserve everything they get. Good riddance to Farve. (I am saying that as a Packer fan.)

I personally still hold a grudge against the Vikings for beating the Saints and ruining our playoff chances and that was years ago!

Anyone remember the stories that came out after his Jet year? Had his own room rather than a locker with the rest of the team...wouldn't TALK to the rookies...special privileges at every turn.

He SHOULD have retired after the Pack and joined Fox Sports.

Agreed. Favre has tarnished his legacy and has become nothing more of a prima donna who is out for himself and no one else. And considering his actions in NY, there is no way in hell he would be on any team I coached. You expect and demand leadership of a vet like Favre- not for him to act like a prissy pantywaist.

Media digging for a story. Like THAT never happens. T-Joke is awful and the only reason he’s on the team is Childress not wanting to admit his mistake in drafting him. If Adrian Peterson says it’s trumped up, I can believe that.

Childress didn’t just bring in Favre to compete with T-Joke, he brought in Rosenfels too. If that’s not telling, I don’t know what is.

No denying they made an Akili Smith type mistake with T Joke.
