Vikings Sign Brett Favre!!! (will the media notice?)
WCCO-TV is reporting that a high-level source with the Minnesota Vikings tells the station's Mark Rosen that quarterback Brett Favre is expected to sign with the team today.
Favre is on currently on his way to Minneapolis and is expected to sign with the team this afternoon, the station adding, citing its source. www.startribune.com |

Chris Mortensen just confirmed it on ESPN Radio. Once he passes his physical, he'll sign a 2 year deal. He gets $10-$12 mil this year. I guess next year is an option year.

re: Vikings Sign Brett Favre!!! (will the media notice?)
Now we get to go through this bullshit again next year.
 As I said a few months ago, I'll never believe Brett Favre is retired until he is dead.

$10-12M? Sheesh. I guess if you have the cap room at this point, it doesn't matter, but that's pretty damn generous.

re: Vikings Sign Brett Favre!!! (will the media notice?)
I heard since they love old washed up QBs-they want to sign Dan Marino as a back-up. His has been on the Vikings radar ever since he lost the play-off game to Jacksonville where he stunk up the place.

re: Vikings Sign Brett Favre!!! (will the media notice?)
HA, I was just telling a buddy yesterday that his Steelers weren't winning it this year because Favre would sign with the Vikes and take my boys to the promised land.

re: Vikings Sign Brett Favre!!! (will the media notice?)
Now I know why the Eagles signed Michael Vick. The Vikings thought of him as an option and said, "No wait, we can do worse."
$10-$12MM... Hard to argue with that many zeroes. (If you're Favre). |

I hope he goes 0-8, gets benched, and overdoses on pain killers.

Childress confirmed that he is coming.
People sound ecstatic around here...I mean he's an upgrade, but come on...he's 40. |

re: Vikings Sign Brett Favre!!! (will the media notice?)
I'm guessing the Monday Night Countdown guys (mainly Tom Jackson) aren't going to retract their angry remarks about those two unnamed players undermining the team yesterday.
Anyway,

re: Vikings Sign Brett Favre!!! (will the media notice?)
Hopefully their O/U win total jumps a couple games, so I can then take the under. Who the hell is he going to throw to - they don't have anyone the caliber of Coles or Cotchery on that team.
