Quotes from Vikings players:

"I'm telling you it's already done," said one Viking. "Right after the Indy game (first preseason game). I don't think anyone here doesn't think that."

Another Viking said, "I don't know if it's done, but I think he'll be in by the third preseason game."

hey look what i found

"The Packers are going to suck this year and we are working on getting Ted Thompson fired" said one Packer.

"Aaron Rodgers is Ted Thompson's lost son from a one night stand" said another Packer player.


see how stupid it is to say a player and not be man enough to give names.

it's all BS from the media, when the deal does get done then report the facts, i'm so fricken sick of it all and can really care less. If he signs i buy another jersey big deal and if it's all BS i save money by not buying another jersey lol.



Right, I'm sure the Vikings players want to be named so Childress can discipline them.

I'm also sure Glazer would want to ruin his journalistic integrity too with a completely made up story.

Sorry Dhazer, this story has legs.

Your reputation as a journalist doesn't exist, and isn't securing your salary. You can say whatever the hell you want. Glazer needs to weigh his decisions somewhat carefully.

Lets see here...

Brett dislikes training camp and the extra work preparing for the season in a team setting... Check.

Brett has wanted to play with the Vikings from the moment the Packers said "NO" to him... Check.

Brett has flipped and flopped more times that a couplr griddles worth of pancakes does at a IHOP every morning.. Check.

The media has a absolute crush upon anything Favre related and it is sure to drive headlines... Check.

Childress would grovel upon his knees for the "legend" to save his ass in Minnesota for another season.. Check.

So what in the world makes anyone even the least bit surprised that someone lacking anything catchy to write about would "whore" out this tiresome tale?

It was just a matter of whom in the press would go first.. nothing more.

oh im sure it is a story, like i heard one reporter say "when it comes to Favre and the Vikings when theres smoke theres a fire" But what i am saying i am tired of the reports but yet they can't put names behind it at all. Like i said report when he signs the contract then write the damn story.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

"Don't know anything about (Glazer's story)," Cook wrote in an e-mail.

Asked if Favre were still open to returning to the NFL and staying in shape, Cook wrote, "Haven't really talked to him about that."

What's really wearing thin is Bus Cook's limp-wristed "It's not me!" act. The man is a high-priced agent and therefore a control freak -- not to mention his reputation is at stake. There's no way in hell he's out of the loop on this.

His client has an entire NFL organization wrapped around his letter finger. It's an agent's dream come true. No wonder he seems so smug about it. He probably said/wrote that quote with a big ol' smirk on his face.

Another fitting analogy would be Nixon and his "I am not a crook" denial.. :lol:

All I know is that thanks to this story there is fresh material to work with in the 900+ page Favre- to- Vikes thread at P.P.O.

I know this will come as a shock, but I have already opted to take full advantage.

Fan Shout
dfosterf (7h) : For the record, I enjoy Beast and Mucky drafts
Zero2Cool (13h) : Haha
Mucky Tundra (14h) : No time for talking! Back to work beast!
beast (15h) : You saw only 4,201 of my mocks? 🥺 I think that means you missed more than half of them 😢
dfosterf (18h) : Does anyone know what Lambeau field improvements got put on hold? My guess would be for the 2025 draft
Zero2Cool (21h) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (21h) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (21h) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.
dfosterf (21h) : Against tbd
dfosterf (21h) : Answer to your question is yes, it's a Thursday, will be the Chiefs aga
dfosterf (21h) : Luckily for all concerned, I don't post them. I did one, but that was like 25 mocks ago
Zero2Cool (21h) : NFL 2024 gonna start Sept 5th isn't it???
Zero2Cool (21h) : Ugh... kids these days!
dfosterf (21h) : I'm gonna go do some more mock draft hell instead 🤪
Zero2Cool (21h) : Did we do one of those prediction threads yet for 2024 season?
dfosterf (21h) : In my city, they are playing the nimby game, in order to keep some railroad tracks vs. 2 professional sports teams and a concert venue.
dfosterf (21h) : And/Or a city council, of which I haven't seen a good one in a very long time
dfosterf (22h) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers halt scheduled 80mil upgrade of stadium until lease agreement talks are restarted
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : City of Green Bay puts Packers' Lambeau Field lease talks on hold
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers 1 of 3 teams to vote no on new kickoff rule.
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : Packers sign another Kicker
dfosterf (26-Mar) : Lengthy explanation at PFF if you click the link
dfosterf (26-Mar) : Kickoff rules officially changed.ngthy explan
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : lol
Cheesey (26-Mar) : 2009? No thanks! One open heart surgery is enough!
dfosterf (26-Mar) : Good for you!
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : Yes. That's the one.
dfosterf (26-Mar) : Is that "Lady Dugan" per chance?
dfosterf (26-Mar) : Crystal?
dfosterf (26-Mar) : Please refresh my memory
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : Alan posts. Crystal back in my life. It's 2009 all over again! Lol
Mucky Tundra (26-Mar) : BAH GAWD! THAT'S CHEESEYS MUSIC!
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Gutekunst said early stages of Jordan Love contract being discussed.
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Shouldn't be penalized cuz official screwed up
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Yeah, challenge until you are incorrect twice.
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
