Season after season we saw Brett Favre pull his team back from despair and pull out one victory after another in the in the 4th quarter. Well Favre is said to be on another come back trail, this one from his recent retirement in March. The most common word written and spoken in context to Favre has been “itch,” as in an itch to come back and play football for the Green Bay Packers for the 2008 season. For some, this is the best news of the summer, forget the Brewers who are 6 games above .500, this is Brett Favre, the leader of the Pack. Others are not so pleased. Certain fans have said their goodbyes and moved on to live without Favre quarterbacking the Packers. In his retirement press conference, Favre claimed he could still play the game at a high level, but he was burned out from the game. His body was bruised, but no injury severe enough to make him miss a start in 17 years. |

Strong Hands, Strong Minds, Loving Hearts. This is the motto of the Donald Driver Foundation, a charity set up by Pckers star wide receiver, Donald Driver and his wife, Betina in 2001. “Strong Hands that build and strengthen instead of destroy and weaken, with Strong Minds that invent new ideas to achieve these goals, and Loving Hearts that overflow with love and compassion.” This is the mission statement quoted from the website of the Foundation, www.donalddriverfoundation.com. Driver had a difficult youth, fighting desperate poverty and homelessness and resorting to measures he normally would not consider in order to help his family survive. He has not forgotten where he came from and started the Donald Driver Foundation to help the situations of homeless mothers in the Houston and Green Bay communities. Through outreach programs in women’s’ shelters, the Foundation searches for families to assist. Through the philosophy of “a hand up, not a hand out,” they seek to assist those who are attempting to regain control of their lives and work with the shelters and counselors to select the families who receive assistance. PackerRats.com was fortunate enough this off season to speak with Donald Driver’s mother, Ms. Faye Gray, Vice President of the Donald Driver Foundation. |
