EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. - Brett Favre is on his way to Minnesota to meet with the Vikings.
Coach Brad Childress confirmed in an e-mail to The Associated Press Tuesday morning that the veteran quarterback was traveling from Mississippi to meet with the team.
Asked if the plan was to sign Favre on Tuesday, Childress replied: "In a perfect world."
Favre, a longtime star in Green Bay, came out of retirement last season to play for the Jets. He retired again, only to then entertain the idea of joining the Vikings. Last month, Childress said the quarterback would stay retired.
hahaha....yeah, we couldn't see this coming a mile away.

At least I have another good backup at qb for fantasy. And I have the #1 pick in our money league this yr, so I think my choice has been made on AP now. The threat of Farve should help open up some running room for AP.

Too bad they have absolutely no one to pass to.

All he needs to do is hand the ball to Adrian Petersen, just like Elway did to Terrell Davis.

Just like Daunte Culpepper, he has the knack for turning over the ball and very bad times.

The Packers are getting ready for Brett's return to Green Bay.

You knew it was only a matter of time before it was going to happen. The guy can't get enough of the game, just hopefully he doesn't make a fool of himself

I doubt he will last the season.
He still has a tear in his RC. Childress is desperate knowing his contract is coming to an end.
