"MANKATO, Minn. (AP)—Brett Favre’s(notes) spectacular stint with the Minnesota Vikings appears to be over. Favre has informed the Vikings he will not return to Minnesota for a second season, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press on Tuesday. The 40-year-old Favre called coach Brad Childress to say his injured left ankle is not responding as well to surgery and rehabilitation as he had hoped, according to the person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the team had not made an official announcement."

This time he may be done for good at least until October due to the ankle.

" Heck, it's also possible that he never even goes to Minnesota before joining the team, and that he simply jumps the puddles between Hattiesburg to New Orleans, walks into the locker room, belts out a verse or two of Pants on the Ground, asks for a helmet, slaps a few asses, and tells his teammates that it's time to go take care of unfinished business."

"I am sad that Brett Favre is retiring I feel as if I did not see enough of him being blasted against the saints I would have liked to see some more this season i guess he just now went back to the field and found his missing texting finger, and texted in his retirement like the high class athlete he is what a fuckin bitch."

"Sterger claimed she spurned Favre's advances because he was married, but also because she was working for the Jets at the time she didn't think it was the best idea to start a torrid affair with the team's highest profile player (the Jets have not responded to a question about any knowledge of the Favre/Sterger saga at this time). Plus, if she went forward with how aggressive he was and how skeeved out she was to some of her superiors, she suspected she might lose her job. The interactions were flirty and strange but she didn't think there wasn't anything that made her too uncomfortable. But then, one night, Sterger received a picture on her phone which was so shocking that she just tossed it across the room. It was his dick. Brett Favre's dick. And it happened multiple times. In fact, Sterger claims that, in one of the photos Favre allegedly sent her, he's masturbating — while wearing a pair of Crocs. In another photo, Favre is holding his penis while wearing the wristwatch he wore during his first teary-eyed retirement press conference."

This would have been interesting a year ago

Someone is really going to have to go balls out to one up Tiger

8/4/2010 11:23:42 AM

Favre patiently waited through the Lebron sweepstakes...he let the Vick shooting charge die down...but come August...he said fuck all yall, I'm Brett Favre, nobody is the media whore I am and nobody ever will be

"I am retiring, this is a sad day. I love the Packers"


"Hell, lets go one more season, I do love the Packers"


"Okay, for real this time, it was nice but I am going to hang them up"


"F That Shit, I am a Jet. Football needs me"


"Hell, I quit"


"Damn wife was drivin me crazy, figured what the hell, you know. Lets play some Viking ball"


"Good night everyone. This is probably it for ol' Brett. At least until there is another big sports story out there that I can jump in the middle of"


"Guess who's back"

8/4/2010 12:11:53 PM

aha John Madden Favre bingo

8/4/2010 12:12:50 PM

yep, he told Ed Werder that he hasnt made any decision yet


the soap opera continues, ugh. I wish espn wouldnt give him so much airtime and stroke his ego so much. You would think espn would learn from all the flack they got from airing "The Decision" for Lebron

8/4/2010 12:15:02 PM

All ESPN had from my understanding was a text message he sent to some of his boys. And they ran a 24-hr news cycle saying 'FAVRE RETIRING!!!'. When in actuality it was just a stupid text and he hasn't made any decisions at all.

ESPN botched it. Shocker.

8/4/2010 12:22:10 PM

^ I thought that the whole time.... OMG a text that says "This is it". It must mean something.

When in reality, he meant, "This is it. I decided on the Big Mac today".

8/4/2010 12:43:32 PM

Favre sent the texts, let the story linger for a day and is now back tracking because it was all a money grab and it worked.......simple

8/4/2010 2:31:39 PM

so basically espn is either creating news to profit on it (like it's been doing more and more lately) or favre has decided he wants a bunch of attention again

8/4/2010 9:07:02 PM

Please don't retire Brett

How was it a money grab?

8/5/2010 7:51:25 AM

^I don't think this was his true motive but the Vikings have already offered him more money trying to keep him from retiring

8/5/2010 9:43:31 AM

I think the real question here is: who here is gonna look at Favre's hog when the pictures surface?

8/5/2010 11:21:07 AM

I think the real question is who refers to a penis as a hog

8/5/2010 11:26:06 AM

haha i dono but that shit is hilarious
