You Better Sit Down...Favre Could Earn Up to $28 Million This Season

I couldn't care less.

What little respect that I once had for Favre, I lost over the last few years. I have no use for him.

 

[Tom [Giants fan]]

they could have probably talked him into coming back at age 50.

Shut up or we might see his **** every year for the next 10 years! :laugh2:

Final season

Only in America

Lol I see where you're coming from, but you seriously think Favre is going to play next year?

He signed a two year deal back in 09, and is hitting the jackpot this year. I just think this is his final hurrah

 

[Longboysfan]

I would rather we put his backside on the ground....
More than multiple times.

"USA number one. If you don't love it leave it" lol

Never say never when talking about Lord Farve

He's a clown. A rich clown. So you never know.

I would like to see his career end within the first four games of the season.

I personally believe he has earned that type of ending with the way he has been acting.

Not to mention I can't stand Brad Childress. Not sure how he still has a HC job. (or ever got one in the first place) That is absolutely stupid.

You echo what I was thinking, I wouldn't surprised his season gets terminated with injury.

Poetic justice if it can happen in our oct 17 re-match !

Whenever someone tells you it's not about the money ...

it pains me to agree but you are right

when someone says it is not about the money, it is about the money.

I know I would stick the rod in my ankle myself if someone offered me up to 28 million to throw the ball a few times.

yeah

depends if he tires of shootin armadillas

For Brett Favre, it may not be about the money. But he's sure going to make a ton of it.

Favre's reworked contract with the Minnesota Vikings has yet to become official in the NFL or NFLPA contract system, but league sources expect it to occur soon.

Sources report that Favre will earn up to $3 million in a new signing bonus. He will earn another $4 million in new incentives based largely on the Vikings' postseason performance this season.

With that in mind -- and given the structure of his existing contract -- Favre could cap his final NFL campaign by pocketing up to $28 million. Not bad.

Holy cow! That is unreal.

Farve owes a commission to Tarvaris Jackson.

If Jackson were any better, the Farve wouldn't have the Vikings over a barrel.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

Would much rather a veteran like Favre make this kinda money than a college kid who has not proven a thing.

Strangely, I agree with you, killah.

The Vikings are smelling a Super Bowl and they don't mind giving him incentives.

Farve, minus his offseason dramas, as been a fine QB. Yes, it is about the money and the adulation for Farve. And yes, he has earned his monies through skill, dedication and hard work. Oh, and a Super Bowl trophy.

So hate him for his drama but don't hate him for what he has done and earned.

now what do you say about brett Hostile? Its all about media drama attention and the money to me. Sure, he wants to win a superbowl. But I am in firm belief that what you dish out, you get back in spades, eventually.

Payback is coming to the vikings.

I don't wish for any permanent disability on Favre but it wouldn't bother me if Anthony Spencer injured him in a way put him out for the season (and his career) in our next game against the Vikes. On the first offensive play of the game.

 

[The Emperor]

With that kind of money involved...it would be hard not to come back. Even if he does not make the incentives, even if he gets hurt on the first play and never plays another down....That is still a great deal of money to walk away with.

I hope the Vikings go 5-11 this year and Favre plays 7 games. That would be hilarious and probably put the Vikings in Salary Cap Hell and destroy their run.
