I also intend to stay away from the DailyNorseman blog until it airs locally.

Unless – prior to 5 o’clock, I hear of an on-going Favre on Leno post (Like the Game-threads).

I think, the flip-flopping in years past was maybe to try and get ouf of GB, but now, now age is more of a serious factor.

I think it would hard for Favre to make a real decision until after the normal trades, and draft. — If he has to perform under a weak offensive line, why would he want to return?

I tend to try to think in a realistic manner. I leave myself skeptical, but I may tend to lean one way or another.

When they asked Ryan Longwell, I believe, in January on Favre’s return he was quoted as saying “I think he already made that decision come mid December”.

Now, I started to look this up, and that would of had to mean, he made a decision between the Panthers game & Bears game. Too bad Longwell couldn’t have been more specific.

Favre couldn’t get anything started in the Panthers game, and he was getting pretty beat up. But than, come 2nd half of the Bears game, the offense came out firing on all cylinders and it was crazy…. Was it the drama from the Carolina game that made him decide he was done, or was it the hey when things go my way we kick butt from the Bears game?

Than, after the loss in the NFC championship game, he said he wouldn’t be taking forever to make a decision. I figured we would hear rather soon on his return or not. Now he’s saying he’s not going to be making any decisions anytime soon. I laugh when i think to myself, is he not only flip-flopping on retiring, but also flip-flopping on deciding when he will make the announcement??

Well, I think if I was in his shoes, I would know.. If I knew already by now, I would have given an answer. If he knew as of now he was going to retire, pretty sure he would of said it by now. However, since he has still delayed his answer, I believe he wants to come back but see how things play out. Will Minnesota look like a “just as good” or “even better team”? — I wouldn’t want to come back if our O-line is weaker!

If we draft bad, and lose good talent to the FA.. That may quesiton his return as well.

I don’t think the schedule, how they plan the away games, etc. will be so much a factor. Favre can play in the cold (IMO, since the Bears game proved that)…

Right at the end, I wonder if it was staged on how it was to go down after he was asked.

The Priest confessional followed with oh your retiring….. W/ the retirement party

Than he says “Well, I haven’t made a decision” followed by the “one more year!!”

Anyone else notice that the Minnesota Vikings playbook was Empty?? haha
