As the Favre turns

When going over topics for this week's Three and Out, our producer Matt Casey didn't want Brett Favre included.  He was worried the story would change quickly and make the video look old, plus he was tired of number four.  I argued that Favre is still the most searched NFL player on Rotoworld (by far), so people were clearly interested. 

I should listen to Matt more often.

Our Favre video still makes sense, but already there is a new twist to the story.  The Vikings will reportedly send a trainer and a member of the coaching staff to work with Favre in the next few days.  Presumably, it's a progress checkup after Favre reportedly underwent surgery two weeks ago. 

The meeting only supports the feeling that we are no longer wondering if Favre will sign, just when.  It sounds like we may not have to wait much longer. 

As for Three and Out, well, thankfully Casey insisted we talk about Favre on his own. So listen to Tom Curran and I talk Ocho Cinco's rebound and the team of the decade without any pesky outdated Favre material.

I wanted to send you all a link to a new website that I launched today:

www.forgetbrett.com

I love Brett as much as anyone, but enough is enough! Everywhere I go - the health club, a bar, a restaurant, a ball game – people are talking about Brett joining the Vikings and how angry that they would be if that came to pass. I decided to provide these people with an outlet to vent their collective frustrations...thus www.forgetbrett.com.

At www.forgetbrett.com, you can purchase several types of t-shirts, mouse pads, banners and car magnets that will help you voice just how you feel about this ongoing drama. Please visit my site and also please pass the word along to your friends. I would love to see an outpouring of support for our 2009 Green Bay Packers on October 5th and November 1st when we play the Vikings.

Thank you for your support. Please let me know what you think!
