This blog is now an archive and no longer actively updated...unless he comes out of retirement? Doesn't look like it will happen again. Here is where it last stood...
It's his 20th and likely final NFL season. Does the long trail end in Minnesota after one remarkable season? We wait again to see if Brett Favre is 'all in' for another Super Bowl run. Along the way, he still knows how to make headlines.
This blog chronicles the ups and downs since his tearful departure from Green Bay in early 2007 to his brief flirtation with the Jets to another renaissance in the land of 10,000 lakes. Little did I know this rollercoaster ride would have this many ups, downs and turns.
Reread and recall the events leading up til now.

I thought he was done after that run with the New York Jets. Would it be irony if his old team of a year ago and new team met up in Super Bowl XXXXIV? (did I type that right?)
Anyway, the Saints are the favorites on their home turf. Vikings coach Brad Childress is handing out ear plugs to handle crowd noise. Will this be the Big Easy win, an embarrassment, or something no one can script? I opt for the latter.
What people are looking for in some camps is Favre choking on the big stage. Beli... [More]

Fran Tarkenton just will not let it go. He still doesn't like Favre in a purple jersey...

You can read the comments by members of PFT and see what they think Tarkenton is insinuating. It's sad when a former athlete has to reach for straws when he is diminished by the achievements of today's NFL stars. Keep stirring the pot Fran and you'll never see the inside of the Metrodome again.... [More]

And now Brett Favre ventures back to where it all began...New Orleans and the Superdome where he won his first Super Bowl. Can he recapture that old magic 13 years later? An unlucky number for such a superstitious town.
Favre leads all post season QBs with the highest passer rating of 134.4, if that means anything. No doubt it was Minnesota's defense steamrolling Tony Romo and the Cowboy's front line that paved the way for last Sunday's victory. When Dallas suffered miscue after m... [More]

No chants of MVP?
Brett Favre definitely made a case for himself while leading candidates Drew Brees and Peyton Manning were sidelined to prepare for the playoffs. Number 4 just showed he's primed and ready for his next opponent...

I had predicted his consecutive starts streak would end to rest for the playoffs. But he had to play to earn a bye week and proved he didn't need it.... [More]
