Congratulations to him....I was one of the guys here who thought he was done 2 years ago....I thought he was done last year when he was in New York....I couldn't have been more wrong...He has shown more heart and determination than any player in professional sports in a long time....
I remember athletes like Willie Mays who played out the string and looked horrible doing so...he was the best baseball player I ever saw...I still have images watching him trying to catch a baseball at age 40...
Favre proved to me that an athlete has the right to go out on his own terms...he got healthy this year and his determination and grit were something else...even if the Vikings lose this week, Farve has earned the right to play or not play next year...This guy is what is good about the NFL...he is playing with the same enthusiasm he did today as he did when he was a rookie coming out of Southern Miss...it's hard to root against a player such as him...(<)<
