As PFT's Mike Florio reminded readers tonight, nws of the possible surgery came three weeks ago. Contrary to initial reports regarding the link between the surgery and the ability of Favre to play in 2010 or beyond, Favre strongly suggested on April 30 that he did not need surgery in order to do the non-football things that he does. So, as Florio further suggested, the fact that he underwent the surgery constitutes an even stronger hint that he'll be playing this year.
