Sources: Favre anguished over choice

[CrimsonWhite]

Give me a fucking break.

With Minnesota Vikings players scheduled to report to training camp in less than a week, Brett Favre remains anguished about whether he should come out of retirement and join the team. That decision, according to sources, has become more difficult in recent days because of the efforts of Vikings players including Adrian Peterson, Jared Allen and Steve Hutchinson, all of whom have now begun calling and texting Favre in an attempt to convince him to become Minnesota's starting quarterback.

"If it weren't for the involvement of the Vikings players directly telling Brett they want him on their team, I think he might have already decided against playing again,'' a source said.

A source said that Favre is beginning to feel a sense of obligation, not only to Vikings players but to a coaching staff that has been recruiting him since the moment the New York Jets released him in April. According to sources, Favre has been communicating regularly with Vikings head coach Brad Childress and offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell, who was Favre's offensive coordinator in Green Bay for three seasons.

While it has seemingly been an effective strategy, using other players to recruit Favre -- if Vikings coaches are actively involved -- is not without some risk. If Favre opts not to play, incumbent quarterbacks Tarvaris Jackson and Sage Rosenfels might feel a sense of betrayal.

Yeah, because ESPN reporting his every movement or thought or anything anyone says about him is fault.

This is a media created shitstorm.

It's both their faults. The media wants a story they can jump on for ratings,etc. Brett Favre is giving it to them. Honestly, it must be so tough whether you want to come back to the NFL of all things, walk in with a starting QB job, and make millions of dollars.

He doesn't need the money. He doesn't need the promse of a starting job. He doesn't even need the NFL. What he needs is the confidence that he can still perform at the high level that he used to. That is the hang up, he doesn't want to come and not play well, but he wants to play. It s a tough choice for him and the media isn't making it any easier.
