Vikings QB Brett Favre Says He'll Start Vs. Cowboys

Vikings coach Brad Childress described Brett Favre's status as a game-time decision and has listed his quarterback as questionable on the injury report, but Favre expects to start Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys, he told ESPN's Ed Werder. With an NFL-record streak of 289 regular-season starts on the line, Favre had limited practice this week for the Vikings while trying to rest his ailing right elbow, which has been bothered by tendinitis. Childress said Friday he would give Favre the 50-50 designation on the injury report and a final decision on his status would be made before the game. "It will be right up 'til then. You never know coming back. Of course he took a few more turns today. I can't look into a crystal ball and see how he wakes up tomorrow," Childress said. "He could wake up with the gout tomorrow morning," he jokingly added. Favre said this week he'd consider sitting out to rest if necessary, but worse injuries haven't kept him from playing in the past. He wore a wrap on his throwing elbow, and Childress said he looked "OK" in practice. "Everybody is a little different," Childress said. "I've seen the ball this week come out of his hand backwards. Whether that's squeezing it or whether the ball is wet, a lot of different things can happen. You are just worried about command and control of it. Velocity won't be an issue unless he's changing his motion. When you are changing your motion, other things have a chance to go foul."

I told ya, the only thing he wanted, was to draw the attention away from the Jenn Sterger story
