Brett Favre could still play in the coming NFL Season

August 20, 2009

Didn’t he told everybody that we was staying retired?!?

After going through off-season surgery and rehab then working out at the local Mississippi kiddie land to test his arm strength, Brett Favre has decided to stay retired because the day-in and day-out mental and physical grind of the NFL game are just too much for him.

However, there are reports claiming that some players from the Minnesota Vikings have been making bold statements that they will retire Favre’s number at the end of the 2009 NFL football season. Hell, some Vikings are even claiming that the deal to get Favre playing for them come September is already done.

Is this just a ploy by the Minnesota Vikings franchise to continue fucking with their rivals from Green Bay, Wisconsin?

Whatever the case may be, only Favre can tell us for sure. The problem is, we probably won’t buy anything that comes out of his mouth anyway with the kind of track record he has when it comes to his retirement from the NFL.

Favre, who had shoulder surgery in May, experienced soreness in both ankles and his left knee during his private workouts in Mississippi. The pain would not subside and worsened as he continued to prepare for a potential 19th NFL season, which Favre considered proof that his health was too precarious to be trusted for a 16-game season.

Favre, who is nearly 40, has already told everybody that he’ll stay retired, saying that his decision was made after consulting with former coaches Mike Holmgren and Andy Reid, and despite the lobbying efforts of Vikings players.

Adrian Peterson, Jared Allen and Steve Hutchinson made phone calls or sent text messages in what one source described as Minnesota’s ”full-court press” to convince Favre to sign the previously negotiated one-year, $10 million contract.

And since everybody from Minnesota are talking about a Favre comeback all over again, those guys are probably starting to win Favre over.
