I always traded Favre right away for a 1st round pick....

Favre goes beyond his stats, I guess some of us will never understand that, its not so much that I will miss the talent of Brett Favre, I will miss the passion, the candor, seeing someone play the football for one reason, for the love of game. He gave his soul to the game of football. Part of the game died for me when he retired.Originally posted by packrulz
I don't have many heroes, He was one of them for me. I tried to emulate him every time I personally stepped on the field. I gave it my all, I would physically, mentally, emotionally leave it all on the field for the glory of the game of football. I understood the meaning of the game of football watching Brett Favre play.
That is why I miss Brett Favre, not for the records, or the wins, not the fame, but because of the passion. Our Favre brothers and sisters, our Favre.Comment

I really doubt we will ever see another player like Brett. We should be thankful we were Packer fans and got to witness such a player on the team we love for all those years. For me, it's going to be hard to watch the first few games this next season.Originally posted by Deputy Nutz

I was a "favre basher" on the Js site (meaning I pointed out his bonehead plays as well as his brilliant plays) but I can tell you exactly when I will miss brett most.Originally posted by Bretsky
1st and ten we rush for 7. 2nd and 3 ARod steps back, holds the ball too long (as young QB's do) and gets sacked. I'll be bitching then about favre being gone even though at the end of the season and even now I think the time had come for brett.
I don't think it was in Brett's genetic profile to win a superbowl with slightly diminished skillz, he would always try and force something and throw a costly pick. I'll miss him no doubt, but his time had come.The only time success comes before work is in the dictionary -- Vince LombardiComment

Favre
Yeah, they are the same one's who think QB's win and lose games all by themselves. The TEAM concept has no meaning to them.Originally posted by GrnBay007There are Favre Bashers out there?Originally posted by bobblehead
Welcome to PR bobblehead
It's much easier to blame the QB cause it takes no thought. Why try to determine if the WR ran a bad or wrong route? Why try to determine if there was a 300lb monster running right at you cause your offensive lineman got beat? Why consider that the guys on defense are getting paid also and sometimes they just make a play?
With the season Favre had last year, all these idiots had to eat their words about him and people don't like to be made fools out of, so the bashing and insults continue.
Favre was one of a kind, a true legend. Very few athletes today can be considered role models. Favre is and was. He was human, made mistakes and came back from them. He played with passion, with style and with grace. The over-whelming majority of Packer fans understand, but then again, there are ass-holes in every group................Comment

Re: I miss him
Very well put. I want to add to those Favre naysayers see how you like it when you have a QB that isn't out there week after week. You all like to bring up bad decisions and interceptions,but durability is just as important if not more so.Originally posted by Deputy NutzComment

I think this sentiment is better than your original. The NFL really lost a big piece of it's personality. Now who's going to tell the ref's to take 2 weeks off and then quit. I really hope NFL films releases a massive compilation of thier coverage of Favre. Not his highlights, but of all his comments and interactions. He had that quality that made you gravitate toward him just to see/hear what he would do/say next on and off the field.Originally posted by Deputy Nutz
Let's keep the debate about the player out of this. The things that no one can deny, as Nutz stated, Favre poured his soul into the game. We never got anything less than 110% even the numerous times Favre was physically less than 100%. You could tell, no matter how bad anyone wanted the Pack to win, Favre wanted it more.
As far as what a single person meant to a sport, you would get no argument from me classifying Favre as the greatest.Comment
