They've had a rough couple of years... Praying she receives the care she needs and that this is the end of it.

My sister died of Breast Cancer and no one here posted an article (Not that I expected it).

Did you post a prayer thread??? You would have received overwhelming support if you had. I'm sorry for your loss.

Prayers for Brett and Deana.

Damn! I can't imagine what kind of comments on a thread like this would have to be removed by the moderator.

Best of luck to the Favre's.

Ditto - I've not checked this thread since this morning, but how twisted does one have to be to post, what might it be called, a pro-breast cancer/anti-Packers insult?? Just guessing about what got removed.

I am in MO and am a sad Chiefs fan, just to make it clear that I have no NFL agenda here.

I hope and pray for the Favre family to have better days ahead.

If you read my post closely, you'd see I'm not the one who said that. Maybe you'd like to share your compassion with Brainhose.

That is exactly who I was addressing, but the post (Brainhose's?) had been deleted thus I was inferring the content from your post - I am sorry you took it as being addressed to you. It was not, and I wish you no ill will. I thought by copying what I assumed was at least part or all of the deleted post (referenced in italics in your post) this would be clear, and I apologize that it was not.

Read this:

"How much punishment can one family withstand? If you're Favre, the number of blows to body and mind appears infinite, as does his tenaciousness and hard-acquired wisdom.

There was the time at Southern Miss that the free-spirited senior crashed his car into a tree. He suffered a concussion and broken vertebrae, and doctors removed 2½ feet of his intestine.

In 1996, the same year Favre entered rehab for drug addiction, a close friend was killed when a car driven by Favre's drunken brother, Scott, was hit by a train.

Last December his high school football coach died suddenly of a heart attack. That man was Irvin Favre, his father. The next day Brett passed for 399 yards and four touchdowns in a rout of Oakland.

Three weeks ago a brother-in-law, Casey Tynes, was killed in Mississippi when he flipped an all-terrain vehicle on the quarterback's property.

Then came this week's revelation." - http://www.usatoday.com/sports/columnist/saraceno/2004-10-28-saraceno_x.htm
