The Glass Joe of QBs. Favre played almost 300 straight games with broken bones, illness, addiction and his father died.

Favre was a throwback to the old days.
Back when real men played the game and most still needed off season jobs to support the family.

I miss the old tough guys.

At the line of scrimmage:
Gino Marchetti: Fatso, what defense we playing?

Art Donovan: the same one we been playing the last five years you stupid wop!

Favre played almost 300 straight games with broken bones, illness, addiction and his father died.

The MNF the day his father died was one of his greatest performances ever (and one of MNF's most thrilling "walk off" wins)
