As training camp gets closer, there is still no word on the status of quarterback Brett Favre for next season.
The Minnesota Vikings said that Favre is still contemplating whether or not to have ankle surgery.
It almost seems as though Favre is waiting as long as he can before deciding to have it, thus allowing him to miss a lot of training camp.
It’s no secret that Favre hates the grind of training camp and practice at this point in his career.
He has said time and again that he could play forever if all he had to do was suit up for the games.

The Minnesota Vikings look like they are no closer to having a new stadium built for them in the near future.
It looks like any type of talks with the state government will be put on hold until at least sometime next year.
The Vikings’ lease on the Metrodome runs out in 2012, but state officials do not seem concerned.
There doesn’t appear to be any other viable option for the Vikings than to stay put at this point.
There are very few cities without a football team that could even be considered an option, and none of those have any type of funding in place for a stadium deal.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brett Favre’s impending decision on whether to play next season has taken an unexpected turn.
Favre had been secretly telling a few for some time that his injured ankle was not healing at all.
The quarterback paid Dr. Andrews a visit, who informed him that surgery would be required to fix his ankle.
The veteran is now contemplating whether to have surgery and return next year or simply opt to retire.
The surgery would not be very invasive, meaning very little would need to be done for Favre to be ready to play next season.
