Yes, right now.

Yes, he's overpaid. Yes, he's an asshole diva who will likely disrupt team chemistry. Yes, I hate him with all my heart. Yes, the media knob-slobbing will know no bounds. Yes, if it doesn't work, Childress is gone, the QB is gone, and the Vikes are in reboot mode.

But he is better than Tarvaris "Will Never Be More Than An Okay Backup" Jackson and Sage "My TD:INT Ratio Is 1:2 On A Good Day" Rosenfels. Favre's funballing will result in picks, of course... but he's still better than the two of them.

Sorry, Vikings fans. Sorry, Favre haters. You don't want to hear it. But they wanted an upgrade at QB, were willing to pay, and they got one.

It sickens me that I had to do that just then.

And I'm rooting for Rosenfels or Jackson to somehow grow talent and knock Favre out of the starting job. But I'm doubtful.
