I think Favre is kind of an everyman... who overcame addictions... basically never got hurt... who wants to retire so he can ride tractors and fish. He was also league MVP 3 times... that's supposed to be given to the best player in the league for that year... And he did it all while laughing and joking with his opponents in an ah-shucks kinda way... in addition to battling his own addictions, plus he also provided a few of those never forget kinda moments like when he went ape-shit in that game the day after his dad died.

Not to mention this noteworthy phrase: 'I'm in town to play the Dolphins, dumbass."
