Vikings Coach does not take Twitter trash talk seriously

It’s been quite a few days since the New Orleans Saints safety Darren Sharper started the twitter trash talks with his former Minnesota Vikings teammates, however, the trash talk could be only for fun, as the Vikings head coach Brad Childress recently said that he was not concerned with the verbal war.

Childress said that the word exchanges in cyberspace was mostly for fun and he know well that Sharper had a good relationship with Visanthe Shiancoe, Sharper’s major rival in the verbal war. Besides, Sharper also used to be Brett Favre’s teammate in the Green Bay Packers, and he could not be serious when saying that Favre’s surgically repaired ankle had been an X Mark to him. “He should be happy for seeing the quarterback wearing back his No.4 Brett Favre jersey,” Childress said. “He was joking about the ankle because he knew that would attract attention.”

Childress did not seem worried at all that the twitter fight could affect Shiancoe’s playing status, even though the tight end missed Wednesday’s optional team practice. Inevitably, Childress was asked about Favre’s playing status, and the coach said that they were still waiting for the quarterback’s final decision.

Vikings are waiting for Favre to make his decision

News about the Vikings and Brett Favre have been all around us for a few weeks. Recent news said that the Vikings will not set deadline for Favre to decide whether getting out of retirement or not.

Coach Brad Childress answered cleverly all the 24 questions asked by reporters Thursday, and 23 questions are about Favre. He hoped that he will see the 39-year-old throw before the Vikings give him a contract. But he also said that the Vikings will not urge Favre to make up his mind soon. He admitted that he had a conversation with Favre on phone, but refused to release more details.

So about Favre and the Vikings, we can still just wait for a certain outcome while speculating.
