The time that has passed since the beginning of the offseason proves how patient the Minnesota Vikings head coach Brad Childress is in waiting for 40-year-old quarterback Brett Favre to make his decision on whether to wear back Vikings jersey or to retire in real sense.
As a coach, you’re a mother hen, you’d like him to be there for all of it (offseason work and training camp)," Childress tells Nichols in an interview conducted at the league meetings in Orlando, Fla. "But I’m enough of a realist to know that’s probably not going to be the case."
Announcing retirement at the beginning of last offseason, Favre eventually changed his mind to join the Vikings, a team he used to play against for 12 years as a Green Bay Packer. Beating many people’s criticism, he managed to have one of his best seasons and lead the Vikings to the NFC Championship game. As for this offseason, he has not made any high-profile announcement on retirement. But it is still hard to guess what the quarterback’s final decision is like. Since he could join a new team each time after he announced retirement, no words about retirement could mean that he would like to have a real retirement. Who knows? We can only be as patient as Childress to wait for his final decision.
