Letter of the day: One Vikes fan ready to embrace Favre

August 1, 2008 at 10:55PM

Dear Brett Favre,

I am a native-born Minnesotan and Vikings fan. My folks and family are from Green Bay. I've always rooted against the Packers. In my opinion, you've more than proved yourself as a player who performs beyond the confines of a one-team legacy.

It's tough to admit, but it would be great to have you playing for the Vikings. You are entitled to the respect that a class act deserves.

Hopefully, welcome to Minnesota.

PETER WEGNER, MINNEAPOLIS
