Brett Favre answered the question that some people were asking as soon as Garrett Hartley's kick split the uprights in the Louisiana Superdome sending the Saints to the Super Bowl for the first time in franchise history and sending Favre and the Vikings home. He gave a statement so unequivocally convincing and more solid than the ground in Haiti (too soon?) that we HAVE to believe him.
Favre said he is "highly unlikely" to play next season.
There. Discussion over. So there's no need reason to talk about it ever again. The Vikings can move on and have either Tavaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels hand the ball off to Adrian Peterson and beat the Bears twice next season.
And if you believe that then I have a bridge in New York I'd like to sell you and have also made a donation in your name to the Human Fund.
Unfortunately this Brett Favre saga is not going to end. He's going to flip flop more than Anne Heche and won't give us a final answer until more than halfway into preseason.
So, please allow me to look into the future and tell you what to expect next season. Ignore his initial comments because Brett Favre is going to return for his 20th NFL season.
