Why didn't vikings go after favre? did green bay want to make sure?

Question

he willl not play against them twice?

Answer 1

Wow, Vikings fans are incredibly stupid.

THEY'RE DIVISION RIVALS.  It doesn't matter how many times they play them, Favre will still win games for them, and the Packers will have to out-do them.  The Packers would NEVER give him to the Vikings.

Idiot Vikings fans...

Answer 2

NO. Becasue same division, bitter rivals and Play against him twice a year. Also, they can't trade the best player they have ever had to a rival. That would of been like trading Steve Yzerman to the Maple Leafs. It would never happen.

Answer 3

Because they would have a riot in Green Bay if they traded Favre to their Division Rivalry.. The Vikings probably did try but was denied. Plus Green Bay didn't even trade to the Bucs.. instead they traded Favre to an AFC team. Which is a team they won't play in the regular season.

Answer 4

Greenbay wasn't going to trade him to a division rival.  

Answer 5

Yes, the Jets are barred form trading him there basically, GB would get 3 first rounders if he gets traded to the NFC north opponents.

Answer 6

Hows this for a scenario? Minnesota makes a deal with the Jets to take Joe Blow(some loser) for 2 high draft picks. Then Brett cant cut it this preseason and the Jets release him. Then after all that he signs with the Vikings. Which is the team he wanted to go to anyways. The Jets dont have to give anything to the Packers because they didnt trade him! They released him and traded some yahoo!!! Think about it!!

Hey killzone! I think Viking fans already realize that! You really shouldnt assume that someone asking that question is a Viking fan. Cuz you know what happesn when you assume.....?

Answer 7

I think the Vikings didn't have a big enough helmet !  LOL

Answer 8

Yeah, Favre going to the Vikings would be a bad thing for Green Bay. Favre know this system and playbook for Green Bay.

Answer 9

Green Bay would never trade him to a division rival.  The Vikings, and Bears, had no chance.  They would rather have paid him themselves and not played him.

Answer 10

If they could they would. I also find it amusing that people are saying they didn't want to trade their "best player". If that was the case, why didn't they keep Favre as a starter? It really doesn't make a lot of sense.
