In a surprise to pretty much no one, Brett Favre stated that he is interested in the Minnesota Vikings after all:
“It makes perfect sense as far as coming back because it’s an offense I ran for 16 years. I can teach the offense,” said Favre, who appeared in Manhattan before a studio audience on the debut “Joe Buck Live” show on HBO.
“It was tough going to New York last year because I was two weeks late and it was a totally new offense,” he said, alluding to his Aug. 6 trade from the Packers. “I thought, ‘This won’t be too bad.’ Brian Schottenheimer and (Eric) Mangini and those guys were great with me. We condensed it down to where I could at least call the plays, but it was like learning a foreign language.”
I think we’ll see a spike in Minnesota Vikings tickets sales if this happens.
