Thread: Vikes gamesmanship backfires doesn't it?

What was all that about putting Favre on the DNP list and listing him as out for the game on Saturday and then magically starting him on Monday night? Does anyone actually buy the bullshit the Vikes put out about his miraculous recovery?

It was my belief that a team couldn't do that once a player had been declared out for game? Despite the NFL's denial about those postings being an assist to the Sports Book we all know that spreads depend a lot on who is or isn't going to play when it comes to high level starters.

Listing Favre as out and holding out the AP would play was nothing more than attempt to gain an advantage through deception since the Bears wouldn't be prepared for the reversal........they thought haha!

So in finality Favre has his season (career?) ended by a great sack to a hard turf and the Vikes end up without either and a rookie QB running the show with no running game except his own. Is it possible that Brad Childress is still running the team from afar. This smacks of his type of thinking.

Nothing thrilled me more than to win that game in style AND see the NFL's poster child for longevity and passing records go out laying on the same frozen turf that they and the Vikes insisted that the game be played on even though their own punter criticized the decision.
