Judd Zulgad has been on the NFL beat since the 2003 season, when he began a (gasp) two-year stint covering the Green Bay Packers for the Star Tribune. Zulgad has covered the Vikings since 2005 and is as shocked as anyone that he is again following the daily exploits of Brett Favre.

Chip Scoggins knew his second season covering the Vikings would be eventful when he saw the news helicopter tracking Brett Favre to Winter Park and a guy dressed in a full parrot costume standing outside.

Fox Sports columnist Jason Whitlock is never shy about his opinions and he gave his take this week on Brett Favre's impact on the Vikings this season.

Whitlock writes that at the halfway mark Favre is the "clear-cut MVP. It ain't even close. Right now Favre is sportsman of the year. That's not hyperbole."

Whitlock also takes apart Packers general manager Ted Thompson for his role in Favre's divorce in Green Bay after 16 seasons. Whitlock's column is sure to spark intense reactions in Green Bay.

Here is the column.
