Favre In & AP Sits Down: The Madness in MIN Continues
Brett Favre is the first man that I can remember to be revived from “OUT” status to starting a game.

One-Man Clap: Get Your Streak Ball
By now you know, the Vikings deactivated Brett Favre for Monday night’s game against the Giants because of his ailing shoulder.
