The dizzy and confused quarterback Brett Favre has re-decided – we know that’s not a real word – that he wants to play football in the NFL this year for the Minnesota Vikings.
Favre, who a few weeks ago said he would stay re-retired – yeah that’s not in Webster’s either, was seen arriving in the twin cities today for a meeting with the team’s top brass. Although his agent Bus Cook told the AP via email that there was “no deal in place,” anyone who has kept up with this annoying diva’s antics in the last two or three years knows he’s probably made his final decision to suit up for the Vikings this year.
Personally, I’ve been a Favre fan throughout his stellar NFL career, but I’m starting to believe he’s a selfish narcissist who loves having his name in the press. Either you’re going to play or you’re not, and if you’re not sure then shut the fuck up until you’ve made your final “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” answer. This dude flip-flops more than a politician.
Finally, we can now put the Brett Favre retiring, un-retiring business to rest. The future Hall of Fame quarterback told the Minnesota Vikings that he would not be coming out of retirement to don their purple jersey.
Favre spoke to Vikings’ head coach Brad Childress and explained that his body was not prepared for the gruel of a 19th NFL season and that he had played his last game. The Vikings would have been a serious championship contender with Favre at the helm considering they have a good defense and game breaking running back Adrian Peterson.
The gun slinger appeared in two Super Bowls with the Packers, winning in ’97 against Bill Parcells’ New England Patriots. The quarterback also holds several NFL records including most career touchdowns and passing yards, and is the only player in the history of the game to win three MVP trophies.
Now that it is official, we will sit and wait for his induction speech at Canton.
ESPN is reporting that the novella know as Brett Favre may have finally come to a close with the news that the Minnesota Vikings no longer have a place on the team for the future Hall of Fame quarterback.
Favre is notorious for announcing his comebacks close to training camp recently underwent surgery on his throwing shoulder and may finally be sticking to retirement. Either way the Vikings can no longer wait for the QB’s discussion.
Favre is the NFL’s career leader in touchdowns as well as interception. He played 16 years with the Green Bay Packers before landing with the New York Jets last year for a last horay.
