The Facts:
Count owner Zygi Wilf among those confident Favre will return as the team's starting quarterback this season. "Right now, he's the starting quarterback of our team," Wilf said Friday as he watched the Vikings go through their first practice of training camp. "So we're in a good position."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Wilf said he has talked to Favre several times this offseason, most recently a couple of weeks ago when HC Brad Childress was visiting Favre in Hattiesburg, Miss. The only time Wilf has been to Hattiesburg, however, was when his private plane picked up Favre last August and brought him to Minnesota. ... As previously noted, Childress and Wilf have given Favre all the time he needs to make a decision in the hope that he will return. "We did the same thing last year, and it turned out to be great for everyone," Wilf said. "He's our starting quarterback, and we look forward to having him this year. ..." In case you've somehow missed it, the widespread belief that Favre will arrive about mid-August remains in place.
