It was bound to happen, and it did; The Minnesota Vikings are spilt in two between having Sage Rosenfels and Tarvaris Jackson as the starting quarterback for the Vikings. Guess where Brett Favre stands? Nowhere because even though the Viking fans welcome him, and the players welcome him grudgily, they're not happy that Coach Childress went behind their back, and broke his word about not worrying about having Brett Favre on their team. Who knows what set this off, maybe Brett Favre has a Private Locker Room and don't share it with the team, or maybe while the team eats in the mess hall, Brett Favre has his meals personally catered, or here's a thought; while everyone was at training camp on Day 1, Brett Favre was busy milking the cows, plowing the fields, or shooting another Wrangler commercial; whatever it was that Brett Favre had done, the Vikings are mad, and they want him gone.

Unfortunately, you can't cut a player because everyone in the locker room hates him, but If he stinks up the joint, then yes he can be cut, only it would be an expensive cut because he's guarnatee $6 million. So what do you do If you're the Vikings? Unfortunately one of the four quarterbacks will either be traded or cut; I can't see Tarvaris being cut, but traded maybe; Josh David Booty could be traded, or cut, and Sage Rosenfels the same as well. All because Brad Childress couldn't leave well enough alone, and got Brett Favre out of the farm. Kinda reminded you of the movie "Necessary Roughness" when Robert Loggia character went to the farm to get Paul Blake (played by Scott Baulka) to come to Texas State as their starting quarterback.

Heard one guy said the only way to make the team happy is to win football games, and I agree with that. What happens If the Vikings goes 9-2 playoff bound, and end up losing the last 5 games? We'll see then. For Brad Chidress and Brett Favre; it's the Super Bowl or Bust.
