The Favre saga continues, mean while newly acquired QB Sage Rosenfels doesn't have much to say about the Favre fiasco. Apparently Favre's agent Bus Cook has nothing to add either as he continues to side-step the entire situation.
On to more important matters, Adrian Peterson has publicly stated that he's wanting to gain several pounds before the start of the new season. After reading this article from Sports Illustrated's Jim Trotter, I'm a bit weary of the situation. Having a full understanding of what may have been the cause of Clinton Portis' downfall, Peterson needs to pay more attention to how he handles his body. More weight equals loss in step and can lead to more injuries rather than preventing them. Here's hoping someone talks some sense into him and soon.
Last season he weighed 218 pounds and is already one of the most punishing runners since Jim Brown. Adding a few pounds is one thing, but to go from 218 to 230? That just seems like a reciepe for disaster.
