EVERYbody is gettin' old

Me and my buddy called him Grampa all year. He better come back. McNabb is a skin now.

Favre hasn't given the Vikes any word as to whether or not he's getting that bum ankle fixed. I think Deanna was pretty upset seeing her meal ticket get slammed around by the Saints in the NFC Title game. I'll bet she doesn't want him to play but I'll bet he does. We'll see.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot: FUCK FAVRE!!!

That can't come often enough from a Packer fan.

Well, it's currently all over ESPN: Sources say that Brett Favre is set to announce his retirement to the Vikings. As usual, take this with a huge grain of salt...

Reports: Brett Favre plans to retire

Updated: August 3, 2010, 11:29 AM ET

Brett Favre has informed the Vikings that he will not return for another season in Minnesota, the Star-Tribune reported Tuesday.

Favre has sent text messages to teammates saying, "This is it," league sources told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

Neither Favre nor the Vikings have confirmed the news but a press release is expected Tuesday, the sources said.

The Associated Press also reported that Favre is saying that he's not returning this season.

The Vikings' ownership is holding its annual meeting at training camp Tuesday morning.

This would be the third retirement for Favre, who also retired after 16 seasons with the Green Bay Packers after the 2007 season and one season with the New York Jets after the 2008 season.

The 40-year-old Favre has been working out at his home in Hattiesburg, Miss., still rehabbing a surgically repaired ankle that was injured in Minnesota's overtime loss to the New Orleans Saints in the NFC title game. He has yet to inform the team if he will honor the second year of his contract and come back for another run at the Super Bowl.

With Favre, of course, nothing is ever necessarily final. Last year Favre told the Vikings he was not going to play shortly before camp opened. But he changed his mind a few weeks later, and went on to record one of the best seasons of his career despite having less than three weeks to prepare.

If Favre doesn't return, the Vikings' starting quarterback job likely will be decided in a training camp battle between Sage Rosenfels and Tarvaris Jackson.

The 32-year-old Rosenfels, acquired by the Vikings last year in a trade with the Houston Texans, has a career quarterback rating of 81.2. In 32 games, he has 30 touchdowns and 29 interceptions and has passed for 4,156 yards.

The 27-year-old Jackson, drafted in the second round of the 2006 draft, has a 77.9 rating and has 21 touchdowns and 18 interceptions, passing for 3,643 yards in 33 career games.

Favre threw for over 4,200 yards with 33 touchdowns and just seven interceptions to lead the Vikings (12-4) to the NFC North title and their first NFC title game since 2001.

LMAO at all you Vi-Queen fans.

Favre dragged Childress around by his dick and then crapped on him.

Vikes go 9-7 at best.

[PETE'S BROTHER]

packers win the nfc norse this year.

Favre dragged Childress around by his dick and then crapped on him.

I'll give the jerk some credit: At least he didn't wait until the start of the season to bail. In this way, the Vikes can try to patch together a QB out of Jackson, Rosenfels and Joe Webb. (Yeah, like that's going to work. ) Still, to finally decide the day after training camp started is pretty damned selfish.

[PETE'S BROTHER]

you sound surprised. he's gonna run out on the field after the season opening kickoff and the crowd will go nuts. j/k, but who knows with him.

Nothing the guy does surprises me at this point, and your notion of him suiting up on opening day and grabbing yet another selfish shot of glory at other folk's expense isn't that far out of the question. I'll believe this turkey is fully retired the day he gets handed his bust while making his speech at Canton. And even then I'll have my doubts.
