Nice Mitch Albom article on Favre

[Badgerinmaine]

I enjoyed this column on Brett Favre in the wake of the Packers win at DEtroit yesterday by Mitch Albom of the Detroit Free Press (famous as the author of Tuesdays with Morrie, among other things), and thought you might, too:

Mitch Album has always exuded class, he's the definition.
Thanks for posting it.

p.s. .....I do agree with the comment made about his striped shirt! lol Brett's never been one to dazzle the crowd with his attire, and I like that about him, but that shirt really did look like something he may have worn in college.

"Brett Favre has been around so long he should be photographed in sepia."

I love it. What a wonderful article.

This was his first victory of what surely is his last season,

now why go and say something like that, wishfull thinking?

Other than that, its a fine tribute story.

Outward appearances to the uninitiated. That's all.

This quote had to hurt to write...

One of the best lines in the story:
"Brett Favre has been around so long, he should be photographed in sepia. And yet after his news conference, he walked through the tunnels and asked an AP reporter, 'Is there anything to eat around here?'

You mean besides our team?"

Great article. I'm not so sure this is his last year though.

This was a very classy and well writen article from a rival. My hat is off for this article.

We may have the better team, but they definitely have the best columnist.

My first thought was that it was wishful thinking but then writers aren't suppose to be fans, are they...

sentiment you'd never see in chicago. chicago is so stricken with favre envy its ridiculous.

one error in albom's article. after beating detroit yesterday albom claim favre's 20-9 record vs the lions was his best against any team. not true. he's 21-8 vs the bears....
