We're goin to Miami..Bienvenido a Miami.

SHHH...be quiet. Do you hear that?

brettbrett..brettbrett..brettbrett

NO, it's not Stephanie Tanner's heart when she has to pitch to the boy she likes in the championship game.

It's Favre. He's back.

I haven't seen Minneapolis/St. Paul come together like this since...well, never.

Maybe the 35W bridge collapse. Maybe the Twins in '87 or '91 although my mems are a bit blurry as I was more concerned with falling down the stairs in my walker or what to do if I couldn't open the bathroom door in Miss Shank's Kindergarten room.

This may or may not be a great thing for the Vikes, but I can confirm one thing: the hype is peaking and no one will be doing any work for the rest of the day. At least not without ESPN on the minimize.

My former Viking source says he's indifferent about Favre but is happy about the deal if it means bringing the crowds back to the Vikes and getting people behind the purple. oh and a new stadium.

In 1998 I had a Moss jersey and a 'Three Deep' poster from Burger King hanging in my room and taped the Vikings version of 'Welcome to Miami: the Vikings superbowl version" off the radio and tried to learn all the words.

Well, luckily all that memorization was not in vain. Because with the addition of Favre, it appears the Vikings may be a FAVE to make it to the superbowl. and.......................Superbowl 2010 happens to be in Miami.

COINSIDENCE? Maybe.

OR maybe God is blessing the broken road that led me astray from the Vikes for the past 10ish years and doesn't want me memorizing the lyrics to Big Willie Style to be for nothing.

Which means I'll be making a few slight name changes to this... or perhaps work out some cutsey favre-ish vikings lyrics to this. TBD.
