I lost alot of respect for Favre with his retirement antics, which were used to just get his way.
But i don't hate the guy.
I'll cheer for him when he gets into the hall of fame. But i won't cheer for him while he's a Viking. I hope he chokes away the Vikings first real chance at a SB win in a long time.
But if he does win it all, i will be happy for my Viking fan friends. But not for Favre.

Favre to me is just another player. Had I attended the Vikings game at Lambeau this year, I wouldn't have booed the Vikings any louder just because he was on the team. When the opposing team is announced, I boo them, regardless of who is on their team.

I don't think he is the God some make him out to be; and I don't think he is the anti-christ either.

+1 to you for expressing my thoughts precisely -- and much more concisely than I would have.

NoTeam - Stand by your team unless they're a bunch of criminals.

I won't get into how I feel about Favre but I will tell you something about me. I'm a gambler. Every year, I put a lot of money down on football games. Before this season started, I knew Brett would unretire and come to the Vikings. I watched him on the Jets and saw he was still an ellite QB up until the injury, whereas it was painful to watch. I knew if he had surgery, he'd be close to 100% and a 40-year-old Brett Favre is still Brett Favre.

As a gambler, I don't care if the Packers are 0-16 the year before, I NEVER bet against my boys. So I put money on the Packers (25-1 odds) to win the SB. I also put money on the Vikings (8-1 odds) to win it all. It's because of all the NFL teams, the 2008 Vikings had every piece to win the big one except their QBs were bottom 5. You can win the SB with a top 20 QB, but not with a bottom 5 QB. (I'm also an amateur Historian).

So I put my feelings aside and put money on the team I think will win it all. This is the first year I put money on teams before the season started and I'd like to continue this tradition. But I almost always bet. I made big money on the Giants beating the Pats, lost big money on the Colts beating da Bears, and didn't bet on last year's SB.

Root for your team. They got the best chance at winning the big one since, well, ever. They're not going to win it with Tarvaris Jackson, that's fo shizzle. You can hate what Brett Favre did, that's fine. But how can you not love AP, Percy Harvin, and Jared Allen?

Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
