Former Vikings great Brett Favre is said to be back in Green Bay — the franchise he played for earlier in his career — to attend an event honoring another ex-Packers QB, Bart Starr.

This is part of the healing process between Favre and the Packers, apparently, and that's good.

The humorous part to us is the item in the Chris Mortenson story that says Favre has "no plans" to attend the Monday Night Football game between the Packers and Falcons at Lambeau Field.

There might not be any plans for that, but do you really think the ol' Gunslinger can stay away from the camera and spotlight of a Monday Night game? Neither do we.
