Put them in fucking purple jerseys wtf.

[tyven]

i hope they bring in jeff george to back him up

All the players are going to be upset and not walk onto the field. The fans will throw their season tickets away, and not show up to games. The Vikings will be in danger of blackouts again because noone will watch. Who the hell wants to see Favre vs Green Bay?

Anyone want to venture to guess how many game will be in risk of blackout for the Vikings this season? Anyone?

Pretty retarded statement, of course Favre adds intrigue+1000 to a second-tier sports city, not to mention going to an arch-rival team who the Packers cockblocked from getting him last year.

It makes this season incredibly interesting, probably the most interesting ever at this stage of the season, but doesn't deteriorate from the fact that...

a) I think we have a better chance of winning with Sage instead of Favre
b) I still hate Favre and so do a lot of Minnesota fans
c) we should have used his $12mil salary to get a real #1 WR like Brandon Marshall

[Serif]

Put them in fucking purple jerseys wtf.

Those are their practice jerseys. I am too lazy to search for Sage pictures in a Vikings jersey.

[Devolver]

Define backlash? Lots of teams have upset QBs, as long as the upset QB isn't the one starting, noone usually cares.

Backlash meaning demanding a trade? Off-putting media comments? A general overall distraction?

Now I will go ahead and say I don't have any feelings towards the Vikings one way or the other, and the same goes for Favre (post GB career). But this wishy-washy way of business is pretty unprofessional from both sides of this deal.

Noooooo Chaz Schilenz broke a bone in his foot, out at least a month! D:

he looked like he'd be a great WR3 this year =/

Sarcasm towards me, not to be taken literally.

Put on a jacket dude, you getting a hell of a breeze.

A. I think you're nuts
B. Fans are fans...when the team wins and goes to the playoffs, you won't care.
C. Refer to A. You don't need a "real #1". You don't need an overpaid diva, especially one like Marshall. That's beyond retarded. Berrian works fine for that team. Get another good average WR and let your defense and run do the work.

My friend that works at ESPN was laughing at how he didnt have to cover the Vick signing cause we were partying in New York. I remember him saying that whenever a Farve story broke he had to work crazy hours, and he hated life.

I just texted him "LOL" and He texted back "FUCKING HATE FARVE"

[Diamicles]

I predict some epic trolling this football season. It's already begun. Save your big plays for the regular season folks!

last I checked Favre has been trolling the NFL and its fans for about 3 years now.

Quiet you. THIS IS FAVREWATCH!!!!!!!

[tyven]

it surprises me that a level headed fan like tyche still believes favre can walk on water.

[archibaldcrane]

You don't need an overpaid diva

...lulz.

[Tyr]

$10-12 million for Favre!? He better win at least 3 games solely on his own...and not throw a pick-6 in an overtime game in the playoffs........


I wish we resigned Sharper =/

[Tyche]

I think you've mistaken me for a Favre fan. Personally, I don't really care. I wouldn't take him over Chad Pennington. I do think he's miles ahead of Tavaris and Sage. The reason I'm so excited is that the NFL just got sooooooo much more entertaining. Really, who doesn't want to see Favre walk into Lambeau in purple? I don't love Favre, I love entertainment.

[tyven]

idk man i remember you doing a lot of pro-favre work last summer too. i dont exactly remember the arguments, i just know you were always in them

[Stiker]

Really, who doesn't want to see Favre wheeled out of Lambeau in purple? I don't love Favre, I love entertainment.

Fixed for the more entertaining outcome IMO

How is listening to 24/7 garbage coverage on an old washed up QB entertainment? You didn't get your fill the last 2 years?

[Tyche]

Favre was on the fucking Jets last year and he was TERRIBLE at the end of the season. he single handedly gave the Dolphins the division. Of course I was pro-favre.

Hell no I didn't. 5 more years.
