The Facts:
The Vikings appear to be pulling out all the stops in their quest to convince Favre to play a 20th NFL season. That much became clear as the Vikings began the morning practice on Tuesday without DE Jared Allen, OG Steve Hutchinson or PK Ryan Longwell on the field. All three were at practice Monday and haven’t dealt with injuries of late. It's believed the trio was sent to Hattiesburg, Miss., to try to convince Favre to return.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As Star Tribune staffer Judd Zulgad reminded readers, Favre has wavered on his decision on seemingly a daily basis and even told the Vikings he was going to stay retired on Aug. 2 because his left ankle hadn’t responded the way he had hoped to offseason surgery. However, the team convinced him to take more time to make up his mind. HC Brad Childress said Monday there had been no recent contact with Favre.
