Favre Requires Minor Ankle Surgery to Play Again
Everyone in Minnesota was panicking earlier today when ESPN reported that Brett Favre needed ankle surgery to play again. Everyone can relax now as Favre put a statement up on his site downplaying the severity of the injury, calling it “a relatively minor procedure could be done to improve the dexterity of the ankle, and to relieve the pain.”
Hidden in Favre’s statements might actually be some good news for Minnesota Vikings fans. Favre says that the injury isn’t going to affect his decision to retire or return for another season, ” I didn’t want anyone to assume that the possibility of surgery was the sole factor that would determine whether I return or not.” He goes on to talk about “wonderful experience that I had last year with the Vikings.”

Instead of focusing on how Favre mucked up, focus on how New Orleans put him in a position to muck up.
Part of the New Orleans defensive game plan was to make the game rough on Favre. Favre took a number of hits, injured his foot and by the last play it affected his game.
