Tonight was the big game of the week in our house as far as NFL football goes. Acutally, we've been looking forward to this game since Favre (correctly pronounced F-ah-v) said yes to the purple. Tonight The Vikings (Favre's team) played the Packers (Favres old team). Favre commented in interviews throughout the weekend leading up to this game that this game wouldn't be about revenge, he just wants to prove he is still a worthy QB. (Sounds like revenge to me) Oh, sweet revenge.
Now I've always been a Brett Favre fan, wether he looked like this...
or this..
Don't know what makes me like him so much or why I choose to like any professional athlete for that matter. Maybe it's the emotional story that is attached to him?
Heck, I'd probably still like him even if he looked like this..
maybe.
The game held loads of excitement, plenty of penalties and a plethora of phenomenal plays. I am personally enjoying the pink donned by every athlete and coach alike (NFL is supporting breast cancer.) Favre looked to have the abilities of his young self again, throwing many passes that made him who he is today. Jon Grudden (packers old assistant coach, therefore Favre's old coach) even added his two cents by proving the color throughout the game. I just felt bad for the Packers new QB, Aaron Rogers. Big shoes to fill and it could be argued he didn't fill them well enough tonight. I must comment on Favre's oversized jersey. Hello? Stacy and Clinton are coming for you...
So in the end Favre claimed his revenge and proved his worthiness. What's next buddy? What's next? (don't ask him. He doesn't know.)
p.s. go Colts
