Re: Brett Favre Reportedly hasn't decided to retire (AGAIN)

Saw an interview last night on tv...some reporter followed him as he was getting in his truck to do something with his family...stood in the open door of his truck so he couldn't close the door and was asking him all about his decision and if it was for the money. Favre was getting visibly frustrated and kept saying "no, it's absolutely not about the money" as if he was offended by the question being asked over and over. He said if he's healthy, he'll definitely play, but his surgically-repaired ankle isn't completely ready yet and he has yet to get a solid determination about it with his doctors, but when he does, he'll make his decision...also he's keeping the Vikings up-to-date.

Then he finally said "Really, I have to get going" and left.



The reporters' piranha-like behavior makes it tough to hate Favre for any of this. It's pretty clear, if his ankle recovers, he'll play...let him find out and he'll tell us. Stop stalking the man.

If the media would just stop acting so ridiculously and just let him tell us when he actually knows...this whole thing would not be an annoyance at all, even if he waits until 2 weeks before the season starts to decide...who cares? Guys hold out on every team every year.

Sure it's not the best scenario for the team if he decides so late...but unless we're a Vikings fan, why should we care? The fact is...most of us don't...but we can't escape it.
