Brett and Vikings

The Minnesota Vikings broke the ice and invited Brett Favre to their team with president Mark Wilf hoping that Favre could put the idea of retire out of his head.

“He’s a Hall of Fame quarterback. He’s a great competitor,” Wilf said. “Ultimately, you’ll have to ask Brett what his plans are, but, sure, there’s interest in Brett Favre. But again, it’s part of a process we have in general with any of our players. We’re always looking to make our team better.”

But with Favre, retirement has become an annual ordeal. After being released by the Jets, Favre is now free to sign with the Vikings if he is healthy enough and still has the desire to play.
“He’s retired a couple of times, so you wonder where his loyalties lie,” Greenway said. “For us, we’re moving forward with what we’ve got here. We have a team that can obviously win at a high level, and we have a team that, moving forward, we think can really compete for an NFC North title again and get to the championship game and hopefully further.As good as something may sound, we have a great team to play with right now and there is no sense in looking outside of what we have within our 53 (man roster).”

Whether Favre would reire or join the Vikings is still not determined. Age and injury became Favre’s comeback. Anyways, go Favre’s own way to let others speak. Favre has the last word in his life.
