After Brett Favre made a bet with his alumni baseball team the Golden Eagles that he would return to NFL if the team returns to College World Series, a die-hard Favre fan made a bet to his friend that he would quit his job to watch Vikings games if Favre wears back his purple and gold No.4 Favre jersey.
Tomilick Hernandez, a magazine editor, is a long-time Vikings fan and has been a supporter for Favre since his arrival to Minnesota in last August. Hernandez missed quite a few games last season because of his limited spare time, but was still excited on the victories Favre led his beloved team to. Despite disappointment on the failure to win a Super Bowl appearance, the fan still believes that Favre is able to lead the Vikings back into playoffs if he returns for the 2010 season. However, some of his friends totally disagree with him and said that Favre was too old to win games.
In order to show his support for Favre, Hernandez bet that he would be a full-time audience for the NFL season if Favre makes official announcement on his return. He said that he would record all the victories Favre and Vikings achieve during the season and let his friend know why a legend is a legend.

Vikings offensive coordinator Bevell believes in Favre’s return
Among the many people who believe that Brett Favre will return to play for the Minnesota Vikings in 2010 season, Vikings offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell has his belief become a special one because it is considered to be evidence.
Bevell could be the one Favre was most familiar with in Minnesota when arriving as new member of the Vikings. They got to know each other in the early 1990s, when Bevell was still a quarterback with the University of Wisconsin and Favre was already playing with the Green Bay Packers. The relationship continued after Bevell joined the Packers to become Favre’s position coach. Bevell was the one left Packers first and he found new job as offensive coordinator with the Vikings, and Favre reunited with his long-time friend in 2009 offseason. So if Bevell said that Favre was very likely to return, more people would be convinced the quarterback would really wear back the Vikings style of Favre jersey.
Bevell indeed expressed his confidence in Favre’s return last week. Although he insisted that he had not been told about the quarterback’s decision, he believed that Favre would pick up the starting job anytime when he returns. When he was asked about possible impact of the NFC loss to the New Orleans Saints, Bevell’s answer was somehow encouraging, as he said Favre never make decision based on one play. Instead, as Favre took the 2009 season as his career best, the return is simply more likely to happen than retirement.

Brett Favre insists surgery won’t determine playing status
The Minnesota Vikings pending starting quarterback Brett Favre finally confirmed that he did undergo a surgery to repair his left ankle, but still, he said that that was no indication of his returning to the NFL. Believing it or not, people found new passion to discuss about the 40-year-old grandpa.
Brett Favre has a habit to keep people guessing about his new decision. While no one knew that he had any decision to undergo the surgery, he had it; so I guess he may already had some deal done with the Vikings and just appear in his Favre jersey like any other Vikings player, as if he never said that he wanted stop playing.
While most Vikings fans got excited about Favre’s new move, most New Orleans Saints fans remain calm and still wait for further information on Favre’s playing status. Though expecting the quarterback not to return for revenge, they also recognize that a healthy Favre is a big threat to Saints’ defense when the two teams rematch for 2010 NFL season opener.

Tips for buying Brett Favre jerseys-Packers version
Brett Favre had his fame built up during the years with the Green Bay Packers, who acquired him from the Atlanta Falcons following the 1991 season. The Packers version of Brett Favre jersey witnessed the former Falcons third-string quarterback develop into the most stellar starting quarterback in Green Bay, even in the whole league.
Since replacing Don Majkowski to become the Packers’ starting quarterback during the 1992 season, Favre had been the team’s leading role for the remaining time with the team. He still wore the number four but was totally a different player from the one benched by former Flacons coach Jerry Glanville. As the number changed from white with red trims to green and white, Favre also changed from a draft pick bust to a most valuable quarterback. In the first season with Packers only, Favre managed to have a 85.3 quarterback rating and complete 302 of 471 attempted passes for 3,227 yards and 18 touchdowns.
The Packers version of Favre jersey has home colors of green and yellow and road colors of white with green and yellow. Favre was wearing this jersey from 1992 to 2007, and took off it in 2008 after announcing retirement but later changed his mind to join the New York Jets.
