Vikings trainer visits Favre again
July 8th, 2009 – 9:33 PM by Chip ScogginsOur own Sid Hartman is reporting that Vikings head athletic trainer Eric Sugarman traveled to Hattiesburg, Miss., on Wednesday to check on Brett Favre’s surgically repaired right arm for a second time. Sugarman met with Favre about two weeks after he had surgery to go over some stretching exercises that will help his recovery.
Sid talked to a Vikings source who said Favre is seven weeks removed from surgery and that it was a complete success, which serves as more evidence that his signing seems imminent.

Well, uh…do you think this will be done in time for him to be in Madden? Or is it already too late?

Oh yea baby! First!!!
Not thirst. What does that mean anyway? Answer me 1dle, does it mean you are thirsty? Or maybe you’re stuck between first and third. If thats the case then you would technicly be second. And why did you change from the “woohoo”? Or whatever it was. These are valid questions. And they need to be answered.

So what…still don’t mean anything…..
Soooooooooooooo Creeepy!
So demanding Carter! I changed it from ‘Woo hoo’ to ‘Thirst’ because everyone is always bragging about being the first to comment by saying “First” but I didn’t want to be traditional and go with the same line so I decided to go with the first word that rhymed with ‘First’. But if it will help you sleep better I can go back to ‘Woo hoo’. You just let me know!
So this once-was-great QB has missed all OTA’s, mini-camps, etc., but he’s just going to walk in sometime in August and make this a Super Bowl team. Uh-huh, yea, right. Right now he’s thinking of every way possible to stay in Mississippi as long as he possibly can. Either sign and get your blue jeans up here, or go fishin’. (Hey, not a bad idea!)
This is terrible planning! Wasn’t Brent just here leaving $30K down on a home in Eden Prairie, or Edina or was it Brooklyn Center? Didn’t someone see him just yesterday at a Caribou ordering a double shot decaf house blend coffee? What about the NFL limo that was seen with Brent? How about the citing at Valleyfair? Why in the world did Sugarman travel to Banjo Mississippi to meet with Brent when the old guy was already in the Twin Cities? This is no way to run a franchise!! Stick to the basics, rock/river drill, big hands, make sure he’s got a little wiggle left, come on Brads!
Easy, Freds… Have you had your second cup of coffee yet?
I’m sure this is necessary progress in what is an ongoing process that has to play itself out to accomplish a larger task that is yet to be established, but will come to be in due time.
Does that help at all?
You up for another season of fantasy football Fred?
Fred thinks that helps Buds…
This will all be very interesting. Freds can’t wait for the season to start. This time of year for sports is awful. Freds actually saw his first ultimate fighting match on TV the other night. Wow, these guys are freaks. Fred doesn’t know what the rules are in these “contests”, but there can’t be many. Maybe no use of guns, no knives and no long neck beer bottles, that’s about it. Fred will stick with boxing.
Hi Bone! Count Freds in. Year two will be much better for your old pal. This year Joe Namath will not be Fred’s first pick.
This is absolutely the worst time of year in regards to sports. Unless you’re a baseball rube, there isn’t anything out there.
Anybody else thing Harvin is gonna be a training camp holdout?
I don’t think he will if he gets close to what Maclin gets from the Eagles at pick 19..Vikes have been talking the Harvin up almost as much as AP when he was a rookie prospect going through OTA’s…I think Harvin would want to get rid of the “he lives in Percy world” title to pretty soon…
Vikes are making changes to the play book for 2 players coming in…Brett and Harvin…He needs to be in camp..
“Vikes making changes to the playbook”?! Do you have “a source close to the situation” on that, Bleed? I mean, this is NEWS, man!
Bones - who can really tell what goes on in the minds of these pretty boy draft picks these days? Ever since Onterrio Smith, I have pretty much given up on how they think. I mean, if we listen to Ray Edwards, he should be paid more than Jared Allen!
The real question for sports fan today is “Who will be the next genius to offer their opinion on whether or not Brett Favre should come to the Vikings?”
No offense Judd, but that whole thing is starting to wear out a little. But I know its slow these days, so if you need to do another one, its OK by me.
Freds, if you like former great QB’s who played for the Jets, well, we just might have one here for you. I also would not recommend picking Michael Vick for this year’s fantasy teams.
The Steve McNair story gets sadder and sicker as time goes on. Numerous people making poorly thought out decisions there.
I was thinkin’ last night, why should Sage whine about BF….they all compete, if Sage blows everyone away, he starts, if not, he shuts his mouth and does his job…….where does the “this isn’t fair” crap come into play?
GO VIKES!!!!!
Freds…ultimate fighting is sweet. Makes boxing looks like two high school girls slapping each other.
Tombs already has UFC 100 ordered up for this Saturday night. Brock Lesnar is defending his heavyweight crown, the big beast. He wrestled at U of M, so he’s a Minnesota boy!
Only $45, order it up, and enjoy the whoopins!!!
No offense coach, but Ray’s not worth anywhere close to my salary.
If you remember a little while back, old Ray-Ray also said that without a doubt, his buddy T-Jack should be the starter. Sounds like a little bit of “Dillusions of Grandeur” from his fantasy world.
Lesnar fears the mullet.
