    I'll never forget the night after Favre's dad passed away. That was the most magical night of football i've ever witnessed. The Raiders fans were some of the most brutal fans in sports and even they were rooting for Green Bay that night, it was such an explainable feeling watching that game.

      The courts decided Favre will have to pay the $ 730,000 in interest he accrued for the 1.1 million he stole from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program to fund his daughters volleyball facility. He played dumb to receiving money by the governor he did not do anything for, paid back only after being found guilty, and then slowed walked payments at his own convenience racking up interest penalties. His lawsuits against those that called him out on it were dropped in the courts. The state auditor's attorney said “It boggles the mind that Mr. Favre could imagine he is entitled to the equivalent of an interest-free loan of $1.1 million in taxpayer money, especially money intended for the benefit of the poor”. Personally I liked him at one time, but he is a particularly bad person in real life.

      “Most fun to watch!” That ought to be a category in itself. Going to a ballgame just so you can watch one person play. In my opinion, Brett heads that category. Throwing one, two or more interceptions and then following that up with two, three touchdowns. Getting killed on the field and getting right back up and in the huddle (reminded me of Walter Payton). Slinging that ball anyway he saw fit, disobeying his coach but winning games and setting records.

That 1st year that he was with the Vikings/ damn he had a good year/ stinks that the Vikings lost that championship game vs Saints. I wanted FAVRE to get to another SUPER BOWL. Yes, the next year, was a total downer for FAVRE/ Vikings. All the punishment he took, took it's toll. Was Favre's last season. Yes he was all heart, and always exciting to watch

Holds the record for the most consecutive starts, and that was no accident. He played beaten up, broken up and torn up, like no other quarterback ever. His rocket arm and mental toughness are unparalleled. I want this guy on my team.

    I have met Brett, in the 90s, a summabich gunslinger for the Packers, he had yet to win a SB then, but I was a huge fan, I got lucky to go to a training camp to see him play and he was about to enter the practice field, with a cowboy hat on, I said, "Yo Favre!" He looked right at me, and I asked if he could sign this football card (had him wearing a falcon jersey) But it's one of the most amazing moment of my life (also met Sterling Sharpe who I was a huge fan too, great combo of these two) I wish I could watch a videotape of that moment... thank you Brett!

    I think Brett Favre is relatable because he had the skills to play the game while carrying his heart outside to the world. He married a good woman that went through a lot with him.

    NO player has EVER done MORE for a franchise than Favre did for Green Bay... When he came to GB, The Packers were the "Cleveland Browns" of the NFL. They hadn't won in years and there was even talk of folding the franchise because they had fallen to the bottom of the league financially and had little hope of creating the revenue that Dallas or New York could. When you went to Green Bay back then, your career was over. It was just to get one last paycheck before exiting the league. But Favre changed all of that. He put fans in the seats wherever he went. Ron Wolf got Reggie White to come to Green Bay because White saw that things were beginning to turn around and that was because of Favre. I was in a sports bar the day Favre came off the bench to replace The Majik man. There were TWO of us in that bar watching the Packers that Sep. day. 2 years later there were 200. That was Favre. Say what you will about Brady, Manning, and Montana, but NO ONE has been the face of a franchise like Favre and NO ONE did more with less. The only HOF players he had was White and Moss. He played for 7 different head coaches. T.B. P.M. & J.M. played for a combined 5 head coaches. He didn't have the luxury of a dome, perfect west coast weather, a HOF core of WR's, a HOF coach for his entire career, or an O-line that could give him 8 seconds to throw, or 4-5 rec. sets to throw a 2 yd. hitch passes to. He had to compete against the 9er dynasty, the Cowboy Dynasty, and the pretty good Viking team with Moss & Co. in his own division. He didn't have rules that forbade touching the QB below the waste or forbid helmet to helmet contact. He didn't get the privilege of his WR's not being touched after 5 yds. He took more shots head on than TB PM & JM combined, yet he never missed a start. Vicodin....? That was ONE year...! He once lead the league in passing with a broken thumb on his passing hand...! He carried his teams for more than TB, PM, or JM ever had to. It was Favre who got Lambeau field remodeled, put GB back on the map, gave a re-birth to "Packer nation" and under his leadership, became the winningest QB in NFL history. And what QB could play from 1916-2016, in any era, any system, any coach, and under any rules...? That makes him the GOAT....! Say what you will about Favre, but his kind will NEVER be seen again.

    • @snoffy27
      @snoffy27 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Well said 1perfectstranger; maybe a "tad" over the top, but you spoke many truths re: the game early in Brett's career and now. I'm old enough where I cheered for the Packers when Vince was Coach, and Bart Starr was the man under center! When Phil Bengston took over, do you think the Packer Nation was comforted by that move, even though Vince recommended his own replacement?! Favre had to play for 4 different head coaches (e.g., Holmgren, Rhodes, Sherman, and McCarthy) and worked hard for each of them!!
      Everyone was scared to play against Favre, just because he had the capability of changing things up and making things happen. If he is guilty of any one thing, Favre maybe ath times tried to do too much by himself. Then again, that's how he got things done. He had so many memorable games, but the game in Oakland after his father died, still gives me goose bumps of what he accomplished! I took my kids to Lambeau and the new Packer HoF after Rodgers won SuperBowl in 2010. Lambeau, and the way it looks, reflects, "the HOUSE that BRETT built!"

    • @1perfectstrangerr
      @1perfectstrangerr 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      A guy named DON SHULA was interested in the Packer job in 69 and the board of directors said they were going to be loyal to Bengston...!!! DOE....!!!! also Joe Pa. was interested in and they went with Dan {Notso} Devine... Boy could they have had a Dynasty with either of them...Favre also played for Glanville, Childress, and Mangini. I counted ALL the coaches of his 20 year career. Not just GB....

    There will never be another QB, let alone another player, of his caliber. He made fans, myself included, appreciate the game of football through his charisma and appreciation of it. Thank you Favre for all the great memories from 99-your retirement (I started watching football in 99 at age 9). May not have been the greatest statistic qb, but you made the game fun and you were def the most exciting player to ever watch. Congratulations #4, this is well deserved!!
