Favre Watch: We all know the truth
On Wednesday, Brett Favre said he still was undecided about a return to the Minnesota Vikings and one more season in the NFL. Never mind that training camp starts in a couple of weeks, Favre just isn’t sure yet.
Favre isn’t sure if his surgically-repaired ankle – remember this – will hold up through the season, but if it can, he’s not worried about long-term injury. It’s too late for that, my friends.
Even though Favre hasn’t made an official announcement, his decision already seems to be the worst kept secret in sports since LeBron James was leaving Cleveland.
Favre is going to come back, and he’s going to drag it out for as long as possible. Why? One reason is so he won’t have to participate in training camp. Another reason is because like most modern-day athletes, he likes the attention. The only surprise here is that we never saw a tear-eyed retirement during the off-season, and that there hasn’t been more done on Favre before this.
As long as someone will employ him, Favre will continue to play quarterback in the NFL and he will continue to throw costly interceptions at the end of crucial games.
