There are reports circulating out there from ESPN that the hunt for Brett Favre has been suspended.

According to Werder, the Vikings have at least temporarily suspended their pursuit of the for-now retired quarterback after he failed to report to the latest session of Organized Team Activities as Childress had mandated. Werder cited team and league sources in his story.

Now that would great, but there are reports out there that Brett Favre may not join the team until July 15th.

So which is it and why all the drama?

Brett Favre may be wearing the Viking horns soon

Brett Favre already holds almost all NFL Quarterback records and now has the record for most unretires and the most faked unretires. Let’s face it, he is the best unretirer ever to unretire in the NFL.

Brett to the Vikings? Well, the most telling evidence may come from his own family members. They booked a room for the Vikings/Packers game.

Favre’s family and friends have booked 25 to 30 rooms at the Midway Motor Lodge near Lambeau Field for the weekend of the Nov. 1 Vikings game at Green Bay, according to the Green Bay Press-Gazette.

The quarterback’s family and friends often stayed at the hotel during Favre’s final years with the Packers, Midway manager Doug Warpinski told the newspaper. Warpinski declined comment to The Associated Press on Tuesday

With a name like a high priced perfume, you would think that bringing Brett Favre into Minnesota would not stink so much for the local fans, but you would be wrong. Maybe they don’t want Green Bay’s leftovers, who knows. There are a sizable number of fans wearing Vikings parkas that do not want Brett on the team.

Brett will soon have your teams jersey on, just wait.

Have they noticed that the Vikings do not have a quarterback? Maybe not or maybe they just don’t care.

If the Vikings want to sell tickets, they should sign Brett Favre. If they want ESPN to build a base camp in Eden Prairie, they should sign Brett Favre. If they want to coax John Madden (or is it Frank Caliendo, I can’t tell them apart anymore) out of retirement, and have him park his Winnebago at Winter Park, they should sign Brett Favre. If they want the Metrodome to become the petri dish in which the most interesting experiment in the NFL is conducted, they should sign Brett Favre.

One of the more interesting comments being made by Vikings fans is that Brett will not get the Vikings to the Super Bowl. Here is a newsflash for you, even without Brett, you are not going to the Super Bowl, so why not hook up with Brett and enjoy the ride?

You know the facts can get in the way, because they are only revealed at a later date long after the real event has happened. So let us get on with the rumor mill. Our favorite subject is Brett Favre, because his rumors just seem to come true over and over. Brett is like a Rocky movie. This would be Favre 18 or something like that.

Citing a source “with direct knowledge of discussions between the two parties,” ESPN reported the meeting will take place at an undisclosed location, with the understanding that Favre will decide soon after whether to play for Minnesota.

The Vikings would expect Favre to participate in offseason minicamps and training camp, the report said, which helps explain the accelerated timeline of this prospective marriage of longtime enemies.

Brett could be taking his wares to Minnesota

The best news of all for Brett if he decides to play for the Vikings is that his record against the Vikes is 17 - 14. That is not real Favre-like, but would be cured by not having to play against them. Of course, there is that little grudge against the Packers that would make for a couple of fun North division home and away games.

Oh, this would be so perfect. How could any fan of the North Division of the NFL ask for more? Brett Favre will soon get his release from the Jets and the rumor mill has Brett playing for the Vikings.

Now before we get into the perfect part, it is time for my rant about end of careers and baseball. Baseball? Yeah, baseball. You see, in my mind, as simple as it is, there is a great reason to have a designated hitter, no matter what Crash Davis says.

What do you believe in, then?
Crash Davis: Well, I believe in the soul, the cock, the pussy, the small of a woman’s back, the hanging curve ball, high fiber, good scotch, that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent, overrated crap. I believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, soft, wet kisses that last three days.

The reason we have a designated hitter is to see the stars past their prime still whack a baseball. It does not tarnish their career. Why do fans feel if a player is not great to the bitter end they have tarnished their careers? That is nonsense. Let them play until nobody wants them. They can still be fun to watch and Brett Favre is fun to watch.

Will Brett Favre fall all over himself to become a Viking?

Now the perfect part. Read more
