What a bunch of douche bags. Brad has lost it.

T Jack must really feel wanted.

[mcaj22]

I'd take either Sage or T-Jack to come back up/compete here in KC at this point. At least they would have a better chance to play.

I saw that just a min ago!Bwaaaaaaa haaaaaaaa haaaaaaaa!

Or they just went and told him to poop or get off the pot.

Either way, if he does retire, I'd draft him on my FFL as my keeper for 2012.

I'd welcome them on our roster as well. Minn really thinks they are shit and I would be screaming for a release if I was T-Jack or Sage. They have to be embarrased by how little the players and coaches think of them.

Same crap he pulled last year, just wanting to skip training camp

Jackson is terrible.

[jspchief]

I've heard a lot about Sage getting treated really poorly, even this year without Favre.

I'd take him. I think at worst he's a great #2, and could probably outplay Cassel.

[CoMoChief]

I heard Favre told them he's coming back.

Twitter confirmed.

[Baby Lee]

On the plane.

[Mecca]

They need Favre they aren't stupid.

Brett Favre reportedly is on a plane en route to Minnesota after three of his teammates traveled to Hattiesburg, Miss., to get an answer from the quarterback on his playing status for the 2010 season.

WDAM-TV in Hattiesburg reported Tuesday that Favre departed on a plane bound for Minnesota at 2:15 p.m. ET but that there were no details regarding whether Favre planned to play for the Vikings this season.

Minnesota Vikings guard Steve Hutchinson, defensive end Jared Allen and placekicker Ryan Longwell traveled to Hattiesburg on Monday to get an answer from Favre, sources told ESPN.

FoxSports.com reported Tuesday that Favre told the three players that he would play for the Vikings this season.

The Vikings' urgency to get an answer turned to panic Monday when Favre was reluctant to report to the team this week and wouldn't give word if he was coming, sources told ESPN.com's John Clayton.

The team, according to sources, dispatched Allen, Longwell and Hutchinson to talk him into coming. None of the three players was back for practice Tuesday. Their mission was to get Favre and when he boarded a plane Tuesday afternoon, that was accomplished.

In many ways, the offense is in more disarray than a year ago, and the team needed Favre as quickly as possible. Percy Harvin was away from July 31 until Monday because of the deaths of two people who were close to him, and because of his migraine headaches.

Adrian Peterson has missed most of camp with a hamstring injury. Sidney Rice is sidelined with a hip problem.

The players' envoy to Mississippi was first reported by the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

When asked about the report of Favre's plane heading to Minnesota and whether Favre would play for the team in 2010, Vikings offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell hedged.

"That's all speculation right now," Bevell said. "If it were to come to pass, Coach [Brad Childress] would make that call."

It was one year ago Wednesday that Favre reported to the Vikings last season.

Favre told ESPN's Ed Werder earlier this month that he will play this season if healthy. The quarterback, who had ankle surgery in May, met with Dr. James Andrews last week to try to determine why the ankle is still bothering him.

Favre has waffled on retiring every summer since 2002. It led to an ugly parting with the Packers that got him traded from Green Bay to the Jets in 2008.

After a so-so season in New York, he announced his retirement in early 2009 for the second time, then reconsidered and signed with the Vikings.

Information from ESPN.com's Kevin Seifert and The Associated Press was used in this report.

I'll be so glad when this Favre-fest is over.

[BWillie]

Was there ever any doubt?

[Bane]

Was there ever any doubt?

I've said all along that I'll believe it when they kick off the opener without him under center.

[DMAC]

i just cant believe it. what an astounding turn of events. who would have ever thought.

[Skyy God]

When (not if) Farve returns, I wouldn't mind seeing if Minn would trade Rosenfels. Despite the turnovers, he's a better backup QB than Croyle.

He went to Iowa State. Blasphemy.

Yeah or.........Do some research and draft a few young guys to be our 1-2 for the next 8-10 years.:cuss:

['Hamas' Jenkins]

It's like watching someone grovel at the feet of one of those bitches on "My Super Sweet 16".

I don't want him to get Theismanned, I want him to get Napoleon McCallumed.

[boogblaster]

he was one play from the SB last year .. they want him bak badly .....

[notorious]

I don't want him to get Theismanned, I want him to get Napoleon McCallumed.

[the Talking Can]

and the Drama Vi-Queen returns, but only after the team captains grovel at his feet and gargle his balls, then carry his luggage and pick all the sesame seeds off his hamburger bun....

[Deberg_1990]

So hes coming back? Sweet! I knew a true warrior and champion wouldnt retire like that. Welcome back Brett!

[chiefsnorth]

Don't forget the reports that he got the Vikings to rachet up his salary to around 17 mil.

[ChiefMojo]

This is like water is wet and the desert is dry type of situation. The media had to make it a circus, but anyone with a brain knew he was just skipping out on training camp. They were one freaking play away from a Super Bowl... tell me he wasn't coming back???

[Pioli Zombie]

I hope Favre has his knee shattered on the first play.

I'm glad Favre is back. I'll actually tune into Viking games this season.

[Halfcan]

Twitter confirmed.

Best QB of all time-they must be pretty happy in Minn. to get him back!!

I cant wait to see him pass the 70,000 yard mark-put all the records up there where Mangina and his shovel passes cant touch.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

I like Favre but this is getting weird. It's like he was wanting his teammates to come beg him or something.

[BWillie]

0% chance Farve has anywhere the season he has last season. 100% chance he completes a pass to the other team on a critical 3rd down while in field goal range that could win the game in the 4th quarter in the 2011 NFC Championship game.

[MMXcalibur]

I can't wait to see Favre's first snap of training camp.
I can't wait to see Favre's first pass of training camp.
I can't wait to see Favre's first incompletion of training camp.
I can't wait to see Favre's first bowel movement of training camp.

[KCBOSS1]

I've heard a lot about Sage getting treated really poorly, even this year without Favre.

I'd take him. I think at worst he's a great #2, and could probably outplay Cassel.

I'll bet he started at least one year in college. I can't believe how bad of a decision that was. First I can't believe that New England drafted a guy that hasn't started a year of college ball just because he played at USC....then I can't believe that Billichek is so brilliant that He could put a high school level quarterback into a system and win some with him, then I can't believe that our front office.......ahhhhh. Still annoys me.
