Coach Brad Childress confirmed in an e-mail to The Associated Press Tuesday morning that the veteran quarterback was traveling from Mississippi to meet with the team.
Asked if the plan was to sign Favre on Tuesday, Childress replied: "In a perfect world."
Favre, a longtime star in Green Bay, came out of retirement last season to play for the Jets. He retired again, only to then entertain the idea of joining the Vikings. Last month, Childress said the quarterback would stay retired[/quote]

Not a whole lot to go on right now but it's still pretty early, was only announced 3 hours ago. I hope he does come back, I love him.
UPDATE: Favre has signed with the Minnesota Vikings, and footage has been released of him practicing with the Vikings.
UPDATE 2: Favre is holding a press conference @ 6 PM Eastern Time

I have fucking clue why he even thought about retiring in the first place when he fucking comes back!, I mean i know his shoulder was hurting and that was the reason, BUT WTF WHY DID YOU EVEN RETIRE IN THE FIRST PLACE!

as a security plan
he didn't know if he was going to get signed, or even if he was well enough to play..so this way if he said he was gonna retire, no one would be disappoint if he had signed with them and then he found out he couldn't play.
:holy:FUCK YES SUCK IT WISCONSIN WOO!!!:holy:
Awesome.
Now the Vikings have a killer line-up, hopefully they can make it to the Superbowl this year, and then Brett can retire happy... only to come back to the NFL again and go to the Lions and totally suck ass.
:wtf: the old man should make up his damn mind already and retire, he's past his prime and has played shitty the past few seasons :bang:. (It's now all about the :20bux::10bux::20bux::signings:) Now we're gonna have to play the "Is He Finally Gonna Retire?" game again after the season's over for the billionth time. :v:
I for one am a die hard packer fan with huge respect for the man.
we will never forget you brent :sigh:
Fuck you brett you suck cock.
Wisconsin 4 life, it's cold in da M

edit: who needs automerge anyway.

Haha, they haven't won a Superbowl in the last 40 years...
Minnesota just isn't a Football state. Baseball is where it's at.
