The Last Hurrah
You just Can’t beat him.
Even in his 16th season, Brett Favre continues to make history, and memories too. He’s likened to a gun slinger, which is appropriate as he is the spokesperson for wrangler, but no amount of restraint can hold Brett Favre down, let alone denim.
I remember in the early 90s having my soul and love of sports tested by Don Majkowski, who, in my young mind, wasn’t worth whatever allowance he was paid for. Favre steps in, and wins the game.
And the next game.
257 games later, Brett Favre is my favorite sport’s figure. Sure he’s had his ups and downers, but nothing is easy in life. Regardless, he did make life better for sports fans, unless you were a fan of the Bears, to which I say “I’m sorry”. All in all, his 82 yard first-play-of-overtime-touchdown-pass was a thing of beauty. And even bears fans, my brother included, were upset they missed it while in the bathroom.
