Apparently Brett Favre just won't give up... or won't go away. I'm not really sure which one anymore. Only a few weeks after announcing he's done with professional football for good (again), Favre reneged and signed a deal with the Vikings.
You may be thinking, "But wait, hasn't the preseason already begun? There's no way that Brett, at 39 years of age could be ready for the upcoming NFL season!" Ah, but there's no need to worry, because, to quote the ESPN.com article:
"Favre has been working out regularly with Oak Grove High school players in Hattiesburg, according to WDAM-TV, and has not missed a practice even after telling the Vikings he would remain retired."
The thing is, Brett, practicing with High School players might get you ready to play the Lions, but there are still 14 other games against REAL NFL players to worry about!
I like what the article goes on to report about Aaron Rodger's reaction:
"Aaron Rodgers, who inherited the starting quarterback position after Favre retired -- then unretired -- said, "I don't have a reaction," the Journal Sentinel reported. "It doesn't pertain to me. It has absolutely nothing to do with me. It doesn't change anything. It has nothing to do with the Green Bay Packers.""
I might go ahead and add, "It has nothing to do with the entire NFL!" I predict Favre and the Vikings make very little impact on the NFL this year and finish in the middle of the NFC North.
