As a huge Vikings fan, I don't know if I have in my heart to forgive him after he cost us a trip to to Super Bowl. I knewhe had that game, you know he had that game, even he knows he had that game, but he stil made that one stupid mistake that cost us huge. I know he probably got us that far, but I still can't see a way to forgive him.

You were nowhere near that game without him-had possibly his best season

ever . You can forgive him.

Now you know what it was like to be a Packers fan for all those years. For every brilliant play Favre will make, he will throw just as much picks by trying to force the ball into triple coverage.

You cant lay it all on him though. You win as a team and you lose as team.

Sounds like he is back, since 3 vikes kidnapped him and took him on a plane to Minnesota.

Yeah the vikes sent 3 team mates to get a definite answer on Favres return. He needs to stop being a puss and either play or retire. Commit to something already. Why all the attention •••••-ness and having the vikes begging him before he commits. It puts the staff and owners in a weird spot because he played so good last year to deal with it a little, but cmon.

There is so much junk going around about Favre and so much of it is just BS. Don't buy into the media (ESPN, in particular) hype. Farve finished the season, told the Vikings he'd see how he felt and let them know if he was going to play. They said that was fine. He had his ankle surgery, started working out with the high school kids he works out with and is doing exactly what he told the Viking's he'd do (and that they OK'd). He'd let them know when he knows. In the mean time Sage threw for 300+ yards last week letting everyone know that the team will be just fine either way. Of course they'll be better than Farve. Yesterday 3 of Brett's teammates flew down to see him. No need for all the media hype. These are veteran players who have played with him before and want their best shot at a ring so they gave it a shot. That's cool. The ridiculous media coverage of Farve getting on a plane and of him helping coach kids, isn't Brett's doing. He just went to the airport and caught a ride to Minn. ESPN shouldn't be showing coverage of him getting on and off the plane and all that, it's pitiful and it's their hype not his. I hope he comes back to play and kicks butt and has fun doing it.

My only question is, if what you say is true, then he was still under the same contract, right? If that's the case, then why did they give him more money to come back this year? If this was the plan all along, why not just stick to the contract he was under? IMO, it almost sounds like he was holding out for more money.

The money probably helps him deal with the "pain".

Maybe he stuffs the extra millions of dollars into his sock for ankle support.

It is true that he does this because he doesnt like training camp, but part of it too is that Favre just likes the attention. Its going to be interesting to see what happens. There are some questions as to how good the Vikings will be this year. A lot of people dont think they are as good this year as they were last year. Also, Green Bay looks to be really strong this year and a lot of people are predicting them to be Super Bowl contenders. It could be a great year for the Packers/Vikings rivalry.

Favre played out of his mind last year until it really mattered. It was an anomaly and I really don't think he can duplicate his regular season success. It should be a good year for the Packers!

He's a older version of Ocho Cinco.

    • If he had to hit over the bunker, I'm guessing he was further from the hole, although "in front of" implies the opposite.  If that's right, that may have been the right spot for penalty relief, a single PS.
    • Day 52. Trying to work on hard pan lie pitching in the rain in the yard. 
    • Did you look up any Rules before posting here? What did you learn or find? You don't get to drop (or place) closer to the hole. 16.1(c) deals with relief for Abnormal Course Conditions in bunkers. You're granted free relief for: Since you say the bunker was basically entirely full of water, you likely wouldn't get complete relief, so for free (no penalty strokes), you are entitled to "maximum available" relief. If there's a spot in the back of the bunker away from the hole where the water is the shallowest, then you can drop there. If you don't like any of those options, you can take a penalty stroke and drop out of the bunker, behind it: You seem to have played from a wrong place (nearer to the hole) and thus likely should be penalized two strokes. It doesn't sound like a serious breach, at least.
    • I feel that the stock grips on my Wilson D9's are a little thin.  The grips on my other clubs (purchased used online and sold by me a couple months ago) were Golf Pride and they looked like the wrapped version.  I will say they felt like they had a little more cushion.  I don't have particularly large hands.  Did the grips on my other clubs have more tape or was just a better feeling softer grip?  I have no idea.  Well, any brands you would recommend that have a softer feel? 
    • So this situation happened. A bunker in front of the green was full of water. My ball was underwater in the very back of the bunker furthest from the green. There was a small patch on the front upslope of the bunker nearest the green that theoretically could have been used to hit from if the ball was placed.  A drop would just roll back into the water. And this was the only part of the bunker you might be able to get a stance without standing in water. So my question is do you hit from that small front slope even though you would have to move the ball 6-7 closer to the pin? Or do you drop outside the bunker making sure you are no closer to the pin? I dropped in front of the bunker, so I had to chip over the whole bunker. Was this the right call? Also could I have moved it latterly outside the bunker, although this wouldn’t have made much difference as my ball was pretty much as far back in the bunker as you could be away from the hole.
