Hello True Believers........
Brett Favre retires. After a 17 season haul, Brett surprisingly called it quits today. The NFL is a less exciting world without him. Brett was one of those unique players that transcended the sport. You can ask your co-worker who isn't into sports who Brett Favre is......odds are they'll know who he is.
Number 4 was the player, many of us armchair quarterbacks thought WE would be. A total gunslinger, who played with as much bravado as talent. During his 17 years, he had many a memorable moment. His Super Bowl 31 victory over New England. When he went nuts on the Oakland Raiders on Monday Night Football...the day after his father died. His strength helping his wife battle cancer. His cameo in Something About Mary. His million commercials. He seemed like a good guy, who you could have beers with. He played for the most Blue Collar Team in sports. He is the epitome of an American Sports Icon.
Brett is going to be missed....and I wish him luck.
