   I have a theory
   
   Favre has been talking about retirement for quite a few years so he could spend time with his wife. Yet, he is still not retired! Therefore I believe his wife must be real naggy or annoying making him desperate to return year after year.

      Nah! The guy loves the game too much to quit. I just hope he gets to exit while he's on top of his game, rather than leaving behind a year of struggles where everyone says he shoulda quit sooner ...

   He's had an amazing career - but maybe one team too many?!

   I knew he would.  Michael Strahan did the same thing in 2007  He NEVER retired.  He just didn't want to have to go through training camp and pre-season.  The dude's smart.  Now he's getting paid $12 Million and doesn't have to do all the strenuous stuff.

      Think ya' made a good point there!!!
      
      Miss the gruelling training camp in the heat of summer, but get the paycheck and the "fame and starting position."
      There has been quite a few players over the years do the same thing and get by with it. But hey...if it works and is allowed? Why shouldn't he?
      
      Wish I could choose my own schedule whenever I wanted and the pay. lol

         Luckily, its been very nice in MN so training camp in the heat wasn't a big deal this year as in past years.
         
         It will be interesting having him here.

   I thought the Vikings would get Vick, but I think Farve is a better fit.  If he can stay healthy, he'll help them win a lot of games.  I think we have a superbowl contender.

   Vikings vs Green Bay should be the must watch game this year!
