Bus Cook: Favre's shoulder will be fine.

Interesting quotes from the St Paul Pioneer Press today from the Agent.

Brett Favre's agent said Friday he believes the quarterback's surgically repaired arm will be fine, but he's still not sure whether Favre wants to return to play football.

The comments came after ESPN.com reported that, according to an unidentified source, a Vikings trainer and a member of the coaching staff will travel to Hattiesburg, Miss., in a few days to work with Favre. The Vikings want to gauge the progress of Favre's throwing arm after he had arthroscopic surgery last month to repair a partially torn biceps tendon.

Favre has started throwing footballs again, but apparently he's still uncertain whether he will be able to play this season.

Favre's agent, Bus Cook, told West Virginia TV station WSAZ: "Whether he plays anymore or not, I don't know. . . . I don't know because I'm not sure that Brett is sure what he wants to do. Physically, I think he'll be fine, maybe a couple of weeks. But we will know one way or the other. Then again, does he still want to play?

"Can he play? Absolutely. He's still as good as anybody in the business, even at 40 years old. It's just whether or not he wants to go play or not."

Gimme a break!

Does he want to play?
Why would he have his shoulder worked on if he were just going to stay home and mow grass?
He is buying as much time to stay home with his family before reporting to camp.
He know that is the case and so do the Vikings. That is why the deadline scenario never made sense.
Elway said it himself, that the surgery was no big thing.
Favre now just has an excuse to come in as late as possible and not look like he is being pampered.

PS PPE

Looking forward to the draft. I did a couple mock drafts on bspn can you believe in one that a couple ding dongs picked Favre and Vick in the 2nd round! What were these guys huffing?
OK, I want to gamble on them coming back, but I can do that in round 16.
Too funny.

and if anyone picks up Vick in the 2nd, I’m gonna laugh so hard I’ll probably miss my next pick! haha. I really like the teams I’ve had. Can’t wait for this to start!
