The Facts:
HC Brad Childress said today on KFAN Radio’s “Power Trip Morning show” that he never set a deadline of this week for Favre to decide whether he will play for the Vikings in 2009. “Absolutely not,” there was no deadline, Childress said. “Not even close. Don’t know where that would have dropped out of the sky from.”

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As previously noted, ESPN first reported on Monday that a deadline had been set for Favre (which others disputed). On Tuesday evening, ESPN reported the Vikings have temporarily suspended their pursuit of Favre after he failed to report to this week’s organized team activities as mandated by Childress. “I don’t know how you guys in that industry go about your sourcing, ‘a source says that a source says,’ I don’t know, it’s questionable, very questionable,” Childress said. ... Further evidence that ESPN is Favre's personal PR firm? Whatever the case, nothing really changes. Favre will return when he decides the time is right. And when he does, the Vikings will accept him. Period.
