Dear Lord...

PrintThere's a giant Elephant in the Room... the # of legs the Elephant has is 4 (a very common # for this Elephant), the Elephant is heavily drugged on strong pain killers, is slightly injured from the last season of trampling trees down in the jungle, and may be mad about getting kicked out of his herd for which he was a proud member for 15 yrs!
There's something we aren't talking about on the sacred grounds of the Daily Norseman... ... and it's good we're not talking about it because it's not going to be resolved until July, which is even an early speculated guess. Basically, Chilly and Wilf need to say we don't need/want/intend to/feel it would be worth the risk to add that special someone to our roster. Yet neither of them has killed this drama, who knows why?
Well this random guy from the internet does... and of course this source is completely legit... not!!!
"my uncle, who claims to have all this inside info with his local state representative, viking coaches when he goes to mankato for camp, says he’s got inside info that bevell has already had contact with farve. that farve will do it but won’t make it official till after the start of training camp in july and thats why he wanted his release and thats why he said he’s retired for now! i always laugh at my uncle, but he’s always right. he was friends with karl kasaulke, bob lurtsima, and knew chip meyers from back in his days of playing wr for the bengals???? i don’t know his coaching sources, but if he says he talks to them, he does!!!!!!! he says it’s a done deal, and they’re giddy about it already in the viking coaches den……their plannin on it….mark it down mike, you finally got him"
People these days, honestly...
But it doesn't end, check this link... comparing the One to Rocky retraining to prove himself once again, just crazy.

This bloody drama won't end until the figurative Fat Lady Sings, and I apologize in advance for bringing this up, but I had to get out of room the Elephant was in.

IDK what to make of it?
I have had mixed feelings about our greatest enemy suiting up in Purple and Gold but if this is true and he is healthy and really wants to come back to stick it to the Pack? I say let’s give him a try. I read the article and everything sounds good so far but I’m not going to hold my breath waiting to see what happens. One thing I will say is that if #4 comes back and leads us to the promised land and then announces his retirement and says he wants to go to Canton as a Viking …that would just be “it”, what more could a Viking fan say?
yea.
i would like to see another high paid imported qb( who in the long run is gonna cost there team alot more fall to vikes def.) bring on the season enought talk!

He won’t, nor should he retire as Viking, even if he does take us to the Superbowl. He is a long time packer great. Don’t forget that he was a 3-time NFL MVP won a Superbowl with them.
Thinking about his injuries, here is a tidbit of fun information: When Green Bay traded a 1st round pick to Atlanta for him, the doctors wanted to fail his physical because he had avascular necrosis. Green Bay GM Ron Wolf overrode them and the rest is history. (Avascular necrosis is a disease that doesn’t allow blood to get to some bones, which usually leads to their death. I don’t know which bones had it, but it was serious enough for the doctors to want to fail his physical. Yet look at him 17 years later. Still rocking the NFL world.)
never as a viking...
you guys might’ve forgotten that after this year, favre will be making MILLIONS putting on a cheesehead and signing autographs… can’t lie, however, about wanting to see him beat up on the pack a couple times this year. how bittersweet.
i think you're shakin' in your boots : )
You wanna see #4 beat up on the Pack, but what about him beating up on the Bears (I’d say both cases would be possible), you disagree?
You're not the first to bring it up.
This has been discussed too much around here.

To each his own...
Seriously, though, just look at the Fanposts – three or four are about Favre. Definitely not new news, and most certainly not an elephant in the room.

Great point solafide.
…it’s good we’re not talking about it because it’s not going to be resolved until July…
Which is why you won’t see any articles about “He Who Shall Not Be Named” from this co-blogger until something actually happens. You guys are doing just fine on the FanPosts and comments with all of the speculation, but seriously, I refuse to talk about it for five months.
We already have a good, promising team without him, so that’s what I plan to focus on until I hear otherwise.

Looking at it from your perspective I’m pretty much done with wasting my life trying to find answers about this fiasco. If it happens Chilly, Wilf, and the unnamed prospect won’t announce anything soon. So for now I really don’t care anymore, thanks for helping me realize that.
Proof
Brett Favre is not coming out of retirement. The fact of the matter is John Madden is in love with Brett Favre and he wouldn’t retire unless he knew he could no longer cover Favre. Read into it what you will, I’m just saying.
