Review:
Brett Favre arrived in Green Bay in 1992 with a name many Green Bay Packers fans couldn't pronounce; he retired after the 2007 season with a name most Packers fans will never forget. Few players in NFL history have played the game with the dedication, passion, and little-boy enthusiasm that the strong-armed, free-spirited gunslinger from Kiln, Mississippi, demonstrated on the field, winning not only the love of the fans, but the respect and admiration of his peers. In his 16 years under center in Green Bay, he won an unprecedented three consecutive Most Valuable Player awards, led the Packers to victory in Super Bowl XXXI, and guided the team to 13 winning seasons. Incredibly tough and durable, he started in a record 275 consecutive games, including the postseason. He also broke every significant National Football League career passing mark, including touchdown passes (442), yards (61,655), and victories by a quarterback (160). Along the way, Favre went from hero to icon and from icon to legend. Favre: The Man. The Legend. traces his humble beginnings in rural southern Mississippi, where he played high school football for his father, and follows his career at Southern Mississippi, his tumultuous rookie year with the Atlanta Falcons, and the trade that brought him to Green Bay. It also reveals the human side of a man who has had his share of ups and downs, revealing the courage he has shown on and off the field in confronting personal challenges.
