Only the Vikes would do something like this...

But I am just kidding...

I would love to have Brett play for the Vikes as I would bet he has some very good years left.

I think Farve could help the vikings also. Just two problems. One I'm still not a fan of favre even though he is a good quarterback (to bad he has a healthy ego to go along with his talent.) And two, the Vikings didn't give up enough in the mock trade (ala Hershel Walker) grin.gif

If Favre ever came to the Vikes ( NEVER WILL HAPPEN ) we would have to get the Packers 1st & 2nd round draft picks for the next 3 years just for taking him . Even at that I would be a Lions fan until he left .

I think you're the only one here with a biased opinion of Farve. Thinking he is God gift to football. I and many others have stated he is a good QB just not the best ever like you seem to think. Me being biased would be saying something like Fran Tarkenton is the best QB ever. Which many Vikings fans may think but I don't. Just because I'm a Viking fan I know their are better players on other teams.

So, Favre plus a 2nd rounder for Phat Pat? I think I'll pass

I think Favre would have a few years left if he had more talent around him, Offensive line to protect him better and a good runing back and better WR's and he doesn't have that with the Packers. This will be his last year with the pack, I think he will finally retire.

If Trent Green is only worth a 4th, Farve is worth a 2nd or 3rd at best.

All Brad Johnson needed was 3 great wide receivers, a great offensive line, a really good tight end, a great running back, a good blocking fullback, a smart offensive coordinator, a brilliant head coach, and a stronger arm, and he could have lit up the score board last year.

Is that too much to ask for as a veteran QB?

I think not.

I'm just having fun with you guys Slot.....My comment was based on the fact that a Vikings fan thought Favre could help and he would welcome him, not that he is the best quarterback ever (that is the other thread were I said that grin.gif )...........I think Favre warrants a better trade than that though

We could keep the same guys on our team right now and put Favre on the team and we still wouldn't make the playoffs IMO. I don't even think Peyton could bring us to the playoffs this year. So to give up whatever it would take to get Favre for one year would be stupid. I don't care how good a QB you are if you don't have time to throw you will stink. We can run the ball because the left side of the line can block but it takes a whole line to block to get a pass off.

Good point Slot, but you also have to think about what a player can do with out doing anything.....ie. Moss, T.O., Vick, McNabb(a few years ago). You have to play them honest and you have to respect what they might do. Moss and T.O. get double teamed and open up somebody else. Vick and McNabb can run all over you at any time. Favre is still good enough that you have to respect his arm and his ability to create a play. I do agree with you and your point about the line. It will be evident this year in Oakland.

I agree with that except for the QB position. Unless it's a Vick type running QB. Then you always have to respect that. Favre has a big arm but it takes time to get off a long pass. So no blocking no long passes thus it would take Favre/Manning/Brady out of the equation. QB's that are statues need time. By the way...what players did Moss open up last year? The Raiders QB's had no time so it didn't matter.

I'll give you that, Moss didn't open anyone up because they didn't have anyone one to open up. Plus no QB on top of it......you are absolutly correct about the line, thats why the Browns made Joe the second pick, it is one of the most important portions of the team. The Packers showed some improvment last year and will look better this year. The Vikings will be able to run again this year, especially if Peterson stays healthy. Will either team be able to pass? Only time will tell.

POLICE REPORT:

Brad Childress's House was Egged

Minneapolis police reported that some individual attempted to "egg"

Brad Childress's house last night.

An empty egg carton was recovered at the scene. Two eggs hit Mr. Childress's house, 3 eggs went over his house and hit his neighbor's back door,

2 eggs hit the houses of each of his next door neighbors, and the remaining 3 eggs were found broken on the ground near the carton from where the

individual threw them.

Looking at what was hit, police officials say they are considering Tavarius Jackson as the primary suspect.

I was going to say the last time I heard that joke it was Dante. I'm sure the next old joke Shiner will throw out is the vikings have terrorist on their team with pictures of Moss aka Osama Bin Complainin, Dante aka Osama Bin Fumblin, and Denny Green, Osama Bin Losin.

Even with all the Vikings jokes at least we can say we don't have a brown streak on our goal post. Something we can actually thank Moss for.

Here you go Shiner a couple of jokes for you:

Q:Why do the trees in Milwaukee lean to the south?

A:Because Green Bay blows and Chicago sucks.

Q:What is the diffrence between a Packer fan and a baby?

A:The baby will stop whinning after awhile.

Q:Did you here about the Packer fan that died at a pie eating contest?

A:The cow kicked him in the head!

Q:What do you call a 350 pound Packer fan?

A:An anorexic!

Q:What do you call a beautiful girl in Green Bay?

A:A tourist.

Here are some Brett Favre ones for yah.

Q:Why cant Brett Favre get into his own driveway?

A:Someone painted and endzone on it.

Q:Why is the Bears quarterback unable to answer a telephone?

A:He can't find the receiver

Q:Why does Brett Favre smell so bad?

A:So blind people can hate them as well.

Q:Why did Brett Favre get so excited after he finished his jigsaw puzzle in only 6 months?

A:Because on the box it said From 2-4 years.

Q:Why do the Packers bring Favre along to play the Vikings?

A:So they can park in the handicap zone.

Q:What do you say to a drunken alcoholic who is passed out onyour car after a Packer game?

A:"May I have your autograph Mr. Favre?"

Q:Why was the government thinking of sending Bret Favre to Iraq?

A:They were hoping he would overthrow Sadam Hussein.

I also had to put this one in for you:

John Madden was in Denver to announce a football game one weekend when he noticed a special phone near the Bronco's bench. He asked Coach Shanahan what it was for and was told it was a hot line to GOD. John asked the coach if he could use it and the coach said: "Sure, but it will cost you $100."

Madden scratched his head and then said: "What the heck, I need some help picking the games." He pulled out his wallet and paid the $100. Madden was perfect that week.

The next weekend Madden was in Green Bay when he noticed the same kind of phone near the Packer bench. He asked The Packer Coach, what the phone was for and was told: "It's a hot line to GOD and if you want to use it, it will cost you $100."

Recalling the previous week, Madden pulled out his wallet and paid the $100. Once again Madden was perfect.

The next weekend Madden was at the Metrodome when he noticed the same phone near the Vikings bench. He asked Coach Childress if it was a hot line to GOD. Childress, "Yes it is; do you want to use it? It will cost you 35 cents."

Madden looked at Coach Childress and said, "Wait a minute! I just paid $100 in Denver and $100 in Green Bay to use the same phone! Why in Minnesota do they only charge 35 cents?"

Childress looked at Madden and replied very matter-of-factly, "In Minnesota it's a local call."

      On the South Shore...  It's deer hunting season in MN and not many are out fishing.  Those that are fishing are taking advantage of the unseasonably warm weather and excellent walleye and sauger bite that is happening across the lake.   The best depths on the south end of LOW are 22-28 feet of water.     No surprise, vertical jigging with frozen emerald shiners is the program for most anglers.  Anglers are going through a lot of frozen emerald shiners as the walleyes and saugers are all mixed sizes.  You will catch small ones and your eaters.  Depending upon where on the lake you are fishing, some slots and big trophies are in the mix as well.    Anglers are also reporting very good numbers of jumbo perch this fall.  Watch out for an occasional pike or even lake sturgeon mixed in with the walleyes.      Good numbers of fish are staged in great spots for the upcoming ice fishing season. On the Rainy River...  Good numbers of shiners again in the river this past week. Typically, if there are shiners, there will be walleyes, and there definitely are.     Walleyes are coming from various spots from Four Mile Bay to Wheeler's Point, to Baudette all the way to Birchdale.  With so many anglers taking advantage of the deer hunting season, there are not a lot of boats on the river.      Walleyes are being caught in 10-25 feet of water in various stretches of the river.  The bait and consequently, walleyes, are moving around.  Once you find some fish, you will be rewarded. Jigging with live or frozen emerald shiners is the way to go. Some anglers are also still trolling crankbaits upstream to cover more ground and find fish. Both methods are producing solid results. Sturgeon fishing remains strong.  The catch-and-release sturgeon fishing is open into the spring when it changes to the "keep season" on April 24th. Up at the NW Angle...  For those not in the woods hunting, fall fishing continues to be excellent.  It is areas with structure holding walleyes in this part of the lake.  Points, neck-down areas with current, shoreline breaks, and transition zones from rock to mud are all productive locations for walleye right now.     A nice mixed bag with perch, pike and crappies being caught as well. Good muskie fishing with the colder water temps and shorter days.  Some big fish and some good numbers are being caught amongst the islands.  Both casting and trolling is getting it done.

      Yes.  No lightning strikes in the area on Saturday and a tree was burning.  The squirrel hunters have been a nuisance this year with more activity in our area then we have ever seen.  This was the 3rd fire in the section of woods in the past 2 weeks.  Most definitely not caused by natural events.

      Stop, trying to make everybody feel bad that not in the woods!   😟  😆

      Haha!  No… In other news: All the cell cams users that I talk with are seeing some daylight movement of adult bucks since yesterday.  No deer hunters want to be at work right now.

      The water temps on the west end Friday were 45 in HeadOLakes and 44 in the smaller bays.

      You didn't Sluice um! 😆 I was driving 94 passed Runnings in Monticello yesterday late after noon and saw a huge, thick dark brown 8 point running alone the freeway with its tongue out.  Thinking he was after a girlfriend! 😜
