Packers say Vikings tampered with Favre
As the days roll by, the Brett Favre saga seems to get stranger and stranger. Now the soap opera has shifted to a new level.
In the latest twist, the Packers have filed tampering charges with the league office against the Minnesota Vikings for alleged communication with Favre, still technically a member of Green Bay, FOXSports.com has learned. The league, according to a source, is currently in information-gathering mode, speaking to members of both teams.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello told The Associated Press that the league had no public comment on the report. Packers general manager Ted Thompson declined to comment on tampering rumors in an interview with the AP on Saturday.
The Vikings were informed late last week that the allegation is that Favre has had inappropriate dialogue with Minnesota offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell, a close Favre friend and former assistant coach with the Packers. Favre has sought his release from Green Bay and several rumors have swirled that Minnesota is his targeted landing place, largely due to his relationship with Bevell.

I wouldn't doubt it. After looking at that team Brett probably asked, "If I can get Green Bay to let me go do you think you guys would pick me up?"
I mean everyone knows that if Brett were out there he would start over Jackson, unless of course you have a complete idiot running that team.

I think Brett can start just about half the teams....they just don't want to publically say anything due to "tampering" charges just like the one Minnesota got.

The only thing worse than a Vikings fan is a Bears fan.
