The Vikings should just call me up. If the Twins don't want my 21 MPH fast ball with no movement, the Vikings must want my jelly arm and no game!

My personal theory is that Farve will continue to play until he's physically unable, despite his endless waffling.  ;)

The waffles could contribute to his physical unableness.

It's hard to say.  If it was anybody else, i'd say he's done.  But with Favre, he could miss all offseason stuff and still be ready for the season opener.

Favre will come back when the Vikings have a record of 0-15 and then somehow lead them to a championship.

lol. He will indeed. He'll be making comebacks 20 years from now, but by then he'll be wearing a old hockey mask.

Considering he still has called the team as far as I know, sounds like he is leaving the door open but he just likes being talked about because he's being a diva like that.
Title: Re: Favre hanging it up...for Good?
Post by: crustpope on August 04, 2010, 12:35:15 AM
True true about the Diva.  I tis tough to go out losing the NFC championship and being one step away from the Superbowl.  And he had a carreer year last year.  I would not be surprised if he DID come back.

Most people like Favre, unless you're a bitter packer fan,  I'd say.  My New York Football Giants wouldn't be hurt though if he decided to just take the year off.

I know Peyton wishes he would give it up because every year he plays it is another year that Peyton will have to play to break his records lol

What's crazy is all the Cowboys talk again this year.  They talk up the cowboys every year and they always goof up and lose quick in the playoffs.

yeah, when everyone knows the real sleeper team this year will be the JETS.  I think most improved will definitely be the Rams...but of course they have no where to go but up...

If Favre had of made it to the Superbowl (Which I worked field security for), I think it would have ended his football career.  He's getting up there in years, and the injuries that he sustained during that last playoff game would have made it difficult for him to play in the Superbowl.  I have a feeling he would have taken some serious hits in the Superbowl which would have resulted in a permanent injury.  I could be wrong, but he was in pretty bad shape after the playoffs.

Yeah I agree, I think the refs could have done a better job of protecting him too.  Like they do Brady.

Apparently that's the reason the rumors of his demise are floating around now, that his ankle still isn't right from the beating he took in that last game.
Title: Re: Favre hanging it up...for Good?
Post by: Daniel TS RED on August 04, 2010, 04:14:04 PM
That's sad too.  He's getting old, but without that beating, it'd probably be 100% chance of him playing this season.

Worried about a beating?  This is FOOTBALL, gentlemen.

I was wondering about that because he was sacked 5 times and knocked down several more.  But his non committal stance in the media so far makes me think that he is jsut grandstanding again.

I think he can still play (he has proved that) I just detest this "all about me" showboating before the season.

Difference between football and cheap shots though.  These were cheap hits and the NFL usually does a good job of protecting the QBs.

Cheap or not, at his age the damage is allready done when the shot is levied.  And he cant take much more of it so he should probably keep his head down and not try to attract so much attention..

He should try and go out with a little dignity, but I get the feeling he'd rather get (More) injured and blame someone else for ruining the rest of his football career...  He just doesn't seem to be able to give it up by himself.  Football Addicts Anonymous anyone?

Haha, but then he'd retire for a year and come back.
