The funny thing about Brett Favre is that we talk LESS about him when he's actually playing. During the entire offseason, it has been Favre-a-paloosa. Will he come back? Will he go to Minnesota? Will he have the surgery? Blah blah blah.
I said from the get-go that Favre would be in Minnesota by the end of October. I figured that he and the team would keep tabs on each other and if Sageus Rosenjackson sucks than he will be in purple quicker than Prince.
That day, apparently, was today. Here are some of my quick hitting opinions on the matter.
-Of course he knew he was coming back the entire time. Ever since he asked the Jets to release him, he knew.
-I mean, after all, how does a two year deal worth $25M get drawn up and agreed to that quickly (uh, as a Redskins fan, don't answer that).
-I feel bad for Sage Rosenfelds. He asked to be dealt to Minnesota because they told him that he'd have an opportunity to become the starter. That's all out the window.
-This is a big year for Brad Childress. He has no excuses. He's got one of the NFL's best defenses and best running backs. Now he has a Hall Of Famer throwing the ball. He's also bailed on the T-Jackson experiment which was his pet project. If the Vikings flame out, Childress may be gone.
-Favre lied when he said that it wasn't about revenge. It may not ALL be about revenge, but that certainly factors into it. And he just pissed on all his Packer fans who will now see him playing for the hated rival.
