As one of the plaintiffs listed on the players’ lawsuit against the NFL, Leber is pretty well versed in the collective bargaining situation. But even he admits that there are times he’s had to go online to legal websites to look up the meanings of some of the words he’s heard bandied about. (AP Photo/Duane Burleson)

You know what this week of miserable labor talk could use? Some Brett Favre talk!

Vikings linebacker Ben Leber joined PFT Live for an engaging interview and addressed the possibility of Brett Favre returning to football in 2011. Yes, we may as well admit that a long lockout could help Favre’s chances of returning to the league. Again.

Leber also talked about why the 2010 Vikings struggled.

“I wish we had the time to go over every issue,” Leber said.

Ultimately Leber said it was “hard to battle” the distractions and off-field issues the team faced. He says many of them were never reported.
