As the Vikings world is still in conniptions over our loss, now is the time to move ahead and leave the past in the record books. The biggest question facing us fans now is if Favre is going to stay with the Vikings, or permanently retire. My thoughts, and vote is for Brett to fulfill the remainder of his contract and stay for another season. Think about it.
In one season with a new team, they went all the way to the NFC divisional playoff game. One game away from the Big One. Not bad for a quarterback just getting to know his teammates. And what a way to get to know your teammates. Deciding to retire would be a monumental mistake like the 12 man huddle fiasco that sent the Vike’s 5 yd’s back out of field goal range. Whether or not Longwell thinks he could’ve made it is irrelevent. The team still had to make up some yards, and the closer to the uprights they could get is that much more assurance of a successful FG. In regards to his age, that didn’t seem to be a problem to Wilf or Childress when he signed for two years. It’ll only keep him young, right? I’ve never in my life sent anyone a fan letter, but I’m seriously thinking about it now. I’m hoping a flood af fan mail will help him make the right decision to go another year. Also, in the letter, I will suggest to Favre, that perhaps he should make a legal change in the spelling of his last name from Favre to Farve, to end all the confusion.:smileyvery-happy:
