MINNEAPOLIS – Brett Favre(notes) kept changing his story and by the end he had everyone (or at least himself) as confused as that Sears salesman in the commercial.
This was either about revenge against his old front office, or not. This was about showing Green Bay he could still play, or not. This was about antagonizing Packers exec Ted Thompson for not treating Favre as well as Favre expected, or not.

Actually, everyone but Favre knew it was the former rather than the latter. He may have managed to convince himself though that Monday night, his new Minnesota Vikings against his old Green Bay Packers could be just another football game. Then he got to the team hotel Sunday and even he quit pretending.
