I would like to take this unique opportunity and express my thanks as a sports fan to Brett Favre, who will be retiring from the NFL, as reported by multiple news sources in Minnesota and some third-party comments from various Minnesota Vikings personnel. For twenty years, Favre has been a consummate professional, never missing a start in his entire career and performing at an elite level until this past year, when he set personal bests in several categories, all at the age of 40. His undying enthusiasm has provided a solid locker room presence everywhere he has played, from the many years he spent in Green Bay to the year-long tours with the aforementioned New York Jets and Vikings. It’s because of Favre that… what?
Welcome back to Brett Favre as he returns to lead the Vikings again in their quest for a third Super Bowl appearance and a second NFL title. With Favre at the center, the Vikings enter the season as favorites to win the NFC North, the NFC conference and most likely the Super Bowl. With such high-octane performers around him like Adrian Peterson, Sidney Rice, Percy Harvin, Visanthe Shiancoe and Bernard Berrian, plus a veteran offensive line to protect him, there’s no doubt Favre is ready to repeat his statistical dominance once again. and show America what has made him an elite QB over these…huh?…really?…okay.
Goodbye Brett Favre. Having decided that his injured ankle is not in good health, Favre finally rides off into the sunset with nothing left to prove to his adoring fans as he racks up nearly every passing record in the NFL books. From yardage and touchdown numbers to the least desirable interceptions record, Favre has etched his place in NFL immortality with 20 years of solid play and countless “WOW!” moments that will be remembered forever in the NFL movie vaults. Now the question turns to the future of the Vikings and more specifically the upcoming 2010 season. With Tavaris Jackson now poised to be the starter, it looks like Adrian Peterson will take on more of the load as the passing game moves to second fiddle. flat. This will no doubt affect several fantasy football leagues and may put Peterson’s value back on top, surpassing even the numbers monster that is Chris Johnson of the Tennessee Titans. Not to say the passing game will stagnate, with Sidney Rice rising to…what?…again?!?!…very good.
Everyone is hailing the return of Brett Favre and his magic arm to the Minnesota Vikings, the prohibitive Super Bowl favorites. Favre’s return will once again allow for an incredible balance between the running game and the passing offense, as most defensive coordinators will have to pick their poison and hope that whatever phase of the Vikings’ offense they don’t defend doesn’t return for bite them last. . These kinds of challenges are exactly what the Vikings were counting on with a Favre return that wasn’t confirmed until recently…are you kidding?…OMG…okay let me go back to…
The end of an era is upon us as Brett Favre announces his retirement from the offices of Dr. James Andrews, the same surgeon who operated on Favre’s ankle after it was injured during last season’s NFC championship game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. New Orleans Saints. After consulting with Dr. Andrews, both men determined that Favre’s ankle was not responding as well as expected and would most likely never heal properly if Favre continued to play football… No… I, uh, what? exactly… .okay.
Breaking news from Brett Favre’s camp as it is revealed that Dr. Andrews was looking at the wrong x-ray and it turns out that Favre’s ankle is healing perfectly within the schedule they had set and his return to the Vikings now seems imminent as . ..
Wow, sorry, looks like Favre has decided not to play this year because he’s going to be on Dancing with the Stars. According to Favre, he feels that as the all-time leading QB, it’s appropriate for him to step in and follow in the footsteps of all-time leader Emmitt Smith and all-time receiving leader Jerry Rice. While there are still concerns about the ankle, famed doctor House will be on hand to ensure Favre’s health and to…

Right about this time, Brett Favre was announced as the newest member of the Detroit Lions by head coach Jim Schwartz and team management in a press conference that appeared to be hastily arranged.

Not only that, think how amazing it’s going to be when I beat the Packers and Vikings with this sad franchise. Favre went on to say that Matthew Stafford can “suck it”.
