Looks like it's official this time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't anyone that is going to convince me that he wasn't the best ever, but maybe I am biased. i probably am biased too....but i always thought that for one of the greatest qbs of our time while he certainly won his football team alot of games, he also lost his team an awful lot of football games....i mean yes he threw more TDs than anyone else ever did...but he also threw more INTs than anyone else ever did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox_Sonix Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I'm gonna miss Favre. I was never a fan of the Packers or the NFC but i always got enjoyment from watching him play (the Strahan play notwithstanding). He was a true warrior in terms of a football player. He always gave it his all and left everything on the field. he showed up and played throug all sorts of adversity (i'll always remember the Oakland game following his fathers death). An exemplary teammate for any young player. He was not the best ever, but i believe he was top 5 (anyone putting Bradshaw that high is a joke, but thats just my opinion). I hope Brett stays a part of the game somehow, his presence in the NFL will be missed. Good luck and thanks for the memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitoMB345 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I am going to miss him. I woke up to a phone call from my dad telling me he was gone, and I nearly cried. to the best ever. to the heart and soul of Green Bay, Wisconsin. Enjoy it Brett, you deserve it.
