Minnesota Vikings players seem happy to have Brett Favre

It will take Brett Favre time to get adjusted to his new teammates on and off the field, but the overwhelming reaction from a number of Minnesota Vikings after their first practice with him was that they are happy to have him.

Sage and TJack stand ready as it is a long season. Let the bull loose and see what happens. A good team just took a step forward. A good team needs to handle the press distractions and still win. Go Vikings!!!

The Vikings players know that Indy had all 4 of thier starting DBs out the other night, and that is why Sage made it look easy. Sage and TJ are not starting QBs on this caliber of a team. Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland.. maybe. The talent around Favre right now is incredible and the whole team knows it. That is why they will rally around Favre. And Favre knows this is the best team he has ever been on. Go Vikings!!!

Wow. August 18th, 2009. a date that will live in infamy. This is worse than Herschel.

Winning will be the only elixir for this bold move. I could care less about TJ and Sage's feelings, there's a new sheriff in town.
Did this team just get better?
Most sane football fans think so.

We traded the farm away for Herschel, we are paying Favre by the hour.

Why would supposed "Viking" fans berate the very same organization they love? Look, the QB we "hoped" would develop belatedly did not. I'm sure Chilly & Co. knew the Vikings needed a proven battle tested leader (who's available). If you are truly a fan, be objective. Now if Brett raises that silver trophy for us all, amid all the confetti, will you finally say he's our QB?

If the scores close in the fourth and Brett's the QB, theres always a chance to win--- that is for the other guys

Just a few Facts the all queens fans should really think about!!
1) Farves record in domes 13 wins - 27 loses - is 1 tie this makes his win percentage 32%.
2) take a GOOD look at his QB rating over the last 5 years. That put him as the 18th best qb over that time.

Don't believe me look at the numbers, they don't lie. If you believe he is like fine wine & gets better with age, its no wonder you elected Al Franken

[bulldogdutch]

release trade tyack keep SAge J. Booty as backup to Farve

[FAVRELOUS]

That's because he played with the PACKERS. He's ours now. Retooling with a better Offensive front and a meat eating Defense. What makes this team even more dangerous, there's an old score to settle.

It's still better than TJack or Sage.

Matty Birk just felt a twinge in his backside.

[Favre]

I felt the same thing from Chilly on the ride from the airport. It was a bald poke.

My wife and I have received 16 calls today from friends and relatives wondering if we wanted to sell any of our season ticket dates this year! I couldn't give away tickets for the last 3 years.

I think a lot of people feel that this team has gotten much better.

We might want to send the coroner over to Dan in Phoenixes house though; he seemed to disappear after a temper earlier today.

[Favre]

Those same people will be chasing me out of town when I fail to lead this team to the Super Bowl.

[Joe]

How many Super Bowls have the other QB's won or been too and how many playoff wins? Enough said.
