A buddy of mine played with Favre at Southern MS. My friend was a 6’ 3” 280 lb defensive lineman. Friday practice during the season was a light day (helmets only). The lineman would catch passes during warm ups. My buddy ran a 15 yd hook. He said the ball was there when he turned around and didn’t have time to get his hands up. Since he was a defensive player, Brett didn’t hold back. The ball hit him between the numbers, knocked the wind out of him, and put him flat on his back. He said it was like getting kicked in the chest by a horse. He NEVER ran another pass pattern.
Great story, I’ve read similar ones over the years all with the same outcome, Favre had a rocket for an arm, dangerous if you were on the receiving end!
I will never forget the first touchdown pass to Rison in his first Superbowl. He came running off the field with an ear to ear grin like he was playing pee wee football. He just loved playing the game.
Of course, maybe the Packers may not of been able to draft favre because they probably would have had a lower pick, but do packers fans remember that they could have taken barry sanders in 89. Imagine barry and favre in the same backfield.
I thought he was in a Mississippi prison for stealing money earmarked for the poor. I guess if you are Brett Favre, you are allowed to steal and not use your own money for your kid's university sports facilities.
My first time going to a Packer game! Bengals at Green Bay... a coworker gave my dad the tickets for free because the Packers were horrible so far that season. Magic Man gets hurt and in comes Favre.... crazy that would be my first live game!
I was at that game also, it was my first game at Lambeau Field !!! My brother and I go out the parking lot after the game and Jerry Kramer and Fuzzy Thurston were next to our car! I was amazing I had Jerry Kramer sign my ticket. What a memory !!! Glad to hear you have the same experience!! Go Pack Go ! oh yean later on in 1996 I was drawn thru the NFL and got tickets for Super Bowl XXXI !!! Took my Dad !
@gorlynmortenson7969 a year or so later, I was a student at Washington middle school on Green Bays east side, and Reggie White came to are school to speak in the auditorium.... he had shortly before just signed with the Packers. An incredible time to be a Packer fan!
I've been a dedicated watcher of the NFL since 1978, when I was 10 years old. Been a Denver Broncos fan since then......Super Bowl 12.......even though I've been a lifelong resident of Northern Cali........it's a long story. Brett Favre is, without a doubt, one of my top 5 QBs that I've watched over that time span. He was so tough and played with so much passion for the game.
@@mpbMKEand where would someone watch THAT at? Some video behind a paid streaming app or is it here on YT? I legit havent looked yet but commenting now incase I cant find it for later Haha.
I never knew that Green Bay traded away a 1st round pick for Favre. It's crazy to think a team would trade a 1st round pick to acquire another team's backup QB who hadn't even proved he could play at a high level in the NFL yet.
Being a kid who grew up in the 70s and 80s with all the bad seasons the packers had seeing Favre resurrect the packers as he did was one of the greatest feats I have ever seen and the honor to have witnessed.
@@theblackplanet20Favre needed to grow up, no doubt. But Glanville telling him he was unwanted and treating him like a circus act definitely didn't help.
I'm from Atlanta , my brother and myself marveled at Bret every time we saw him in Atlanta ! Unfortunately the Falcons did what they always did, and always will. They send great players to other teams to do great things for them, not the Falcons ! We're cursed !
As a Vikings fan, I hate the Green Bay Packers. I hated Brett Favre until he donned the purple and gold and buried Green Bay twice his first year. He almost got us to the promised land, and I appreciate what he gave us. He's a legend.
The only thing Green Bay in this time period really mess up on is drafting Tony Mandarich. while passing on Barry Sanders. Brett Favre is a winner and a true PROFESSINAL.
It would been so sweet if you won for the Vikings in 2009 our best chance ever to win the big one, if wasnt for bounty gate, we would have the ring...thanks for the memories though!
Amusing story. ATL swapped picks with DAL and ended up drafting Tony Smith, RB from Southern Mississippi - where he was Favre’s college teammate for two years. Glanville hated him as well and screwed up his career just like he tried to do to Favre. He only played 3 seasons.
Southern Miss plays top notch college football, and puts a lot of players into the NFL. If the school was in the SEC they would win more than they lose!
I tell you what, Brett was a key part in returning the packers to greatness. Has he made mistakes? Of course. But haven't we all? Watching him play with that huge heart for the game was inspiring, fun and bone chilling. It was a fantastic ride for this packer fan.
I'm a UW fan. Penix is going to be a great quarterback for you guys....SOMEDAY 😂😂😂. Yeah it's not the pick I would want if I already have a 40 million dollar QB on the books for at least 3 years. Should have drafted a D lineman or receiver.
Being from a small town in Northern Wisconsin it was all about rhe Packers. Brett Favre magnified the joy and energy that all Packers fans felt from his first game to his last.
Growing up being a Niners fan I absolutely hated Favre and the packers (along with Dallas). But now having grown up and hearing Favre’s story, and being able to put all he did and how great he was in perspective I can honestly say I have a deep appreciation for him.

Brett Favre is immortalized in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, while I've attended the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Brett Favre has a net worth of eight figures, while I have a net worth of eight figures if you don't give a shit about the decimal point. But I look a hell of a lot more than one day younger than Brett Favre. So I got THAT going for me...
I remember when he played in his first (?) Packer Game. The Bucs Defense was awesome and had a habit of knocking opposing QB's out (the offense sucked though.) They knocked Dan Majkowski out and Farve came into the game.
Why because he got governors to pay for his pet project? I didn't realize that you could just walk into the Federal reserve and pull out money like he did allegedly

Favre was do or die. He doesn't have more rings because he threw int's or Td's. They were at bad times too. FG range, he can go to OT to beat the undefeated Pats in the SB and he throws an interception. Same thing in MN. A chance to take on Manning. (In a game Manning would've wanted to win.) And he gets hurt and throws a bad pick to the Saints to end their chance (mannings heart was not in that game at all. Peyton asked Daddy if he could win, and Daddy Manning told him "no," as in N.O.

@@MarthaNichols-k5m LOL! My comment was a dig on him, yours? Its always nice to see someone with power and money abuse tax payers dollars. PS. Im a Viking fan and my greatest memory of Brett is his 1st season where he tore the Puckers completely apart. My worst memory of him will be remembering how he has no morals and stole from the tax payers of his own state that was intended for the needy. Just sayin!
As a Niner fan with Montana then Young..there was nobody who I hated playing more than Favre and the Packers he wld throw darts falling down! Seriously he made throws no other QB did
Man, it's so sad that he apparently committed criminal welfare fraud and misappropriated(knowingly stole) $1.6M for his mansion and luxury cars, and then helped siphon millions of dollars meant for needy low-income residents(who were denied state aid) of Mississippi to his daughter's college for a new 28,000 square foot volleyball arena with a $6 million price tag. And the state has multiple text messages showing he knew what he was doing was not only wrong, but potentially criminal. At least he's paid half of his stolen mansion and car money back after being forced to admit wrongdoing or be immediately arrested. There is still an ongoing criminal investigation into him as well as his accomplices, and there are demands that he be fully prosecuted just like the others involved. I know he's not convicted yet, but he has already publicly admitted to the charges of wrongdoing. What a f**king scumbag.
Delete the above prejudiced inappropriate remarks from a bitter biased individual unable to overlook or forgive and lists his ‘judgy’ finger here hoping to badmouth Brett Favre and forever stain his marvelous career! What a sad pitiful warped example for everyone to pity…who has not made similar errors in their past(s)? May Gid forgive your bitterness sir…
@@MarthaNichols-k5m I will not delete the 100% factual truth that HE ADMITTED TO. Regardless of his football accomplishments, he is a very wealthy individual who stole MILLIONS of dollars from low-income families that desperately needed the money. Money that that SCUMBAG spent on his multi-million dollar mansion, luxury cars, and his spoiled brat daughter's crystal palace college volleyball facility. And who in the actual fk do you think you are to judge me for posting a 100% accurate comment and tell me to take it down? You may be able to overlook his criminal thieving behavior, but most of us will not. He is a piece of garbage who should only be allowed to speak publicly and apologize about the crimes he committed, not be praised as a hero anymore.
@@MarthaNichols-k5m In fact, the first thing he should have done when the first question was asked was to address the crimes he committed and honestly explained why he did it. Then apologized and explained how he is financially rectifying the damage he did to all those families in need that he harmed, and be sincere about it. That's what a person of integrity and ethics does-admits full responsibility and repairs the damage. He did none of that, only what he had to do on the advice of his lawyer and under threat of criminal prosecution. He should not be above the law-if you or I had done those things we would be in prison right now for at least 8 years, regardless of any attempts to pay back the stolen money.
It's a miracle Favre was even drafted. His senior year he threw for just seven touchdowns and six picks with 1572 yards. He rushed 42 times for a Peyton Manning-like negative 218 yards. How is that even possible?
He also got into a drunk driving wreck that caused him to lose a portion of his small intestine which led to the vicodin addiction. He was a mess coming into the NFL.
@connerair3520 I know.. but usually that's mixed with at least a few scrambles for positive yardage. So every time he touched the ball if he didn't hand off or throw was the equivalent of a five yard penalty.
My buddy and I were at the Packers Bengals game when Majik got hurt. We were like “Who’s THIS FAVRE guy???” We ALMOST left,but decided to stay. HOLY CRAP!!! The place went NUTS!!! I even found my ticket stub from that game in an old wallet a few months ago.
I remember when he first played they couldn't even pronounce his name write. They even said it wrong when he got drafted . He will always be Brent Favor...

People do not know what to do with apples, pears, cherries and peaches. Except bitch about how bad they smell when they hit ground. Cherries and peaches make really good wine. If you know how.
@@packers12to80 notice the audience appears to be the same across multiple interviews and all camera shots are super narrow focus ( never see the audience and the interview on the same shot)
I cannot wrap my mind around how you can be soooo rich and want to fund your daughter's volleyball building and instead of being an awesome dad, who has more money than he'll ever spend and choose to use/steal the money set aside for the poorest of the poor in the entire nation...annnnd in your hometown on top of that.
One wrong doesn’t negate another. Stop making excuses for wrong. This is the problem with America. We call one thing evil while making excuses for the exact same actions for someone we love. Just despicable.
This dude a criminal. Dont forget he robbed a state govt benefits program to build a volleyball stadium for his daughter's school. And like im all for parents doing whats best for a kid... but robbing other parents of their ability to meet the needs of their kids just for opulence of your kid... thats some midevil heinous shenanigans.
It's true the Glanville didn't want him. He had a QB who threw for 3000 yards and 26 TD's that same year in Chris Miller. To him it was a wasted pick. Brett left out his being a flat out drunk and missing meetings and being late constantly during that camp. If he hadn't been a 2nd round pick, he would have been cut. There was no chance they were keeping him after that season. And they jumped at the first round pick. Worked out well for him and the Packers.
Um yeah he was great for us till he got to the Vikings, he was horrible for the poor folks in his home state, still a Packers fan but I'm not thrilled with the person off the field favre is, reality says Charles Barkley was right don't have athletes as role models
As a person from Mississippi, he's a POS for what he did. But I also know that a vast majority of welfare recipients from that place are lifers who definitely abuse the system to get that money for essentially their whole life. The governing of the state is even worse. So much is paid in taxes and it goes nowhere near education, infrastructure, or anything that progresses the conditions of the state. Straight into the pockets of scumbags is where it all goes. Will never go back there.
Low IQ remark. He didn't scam anyone. It was public employees that wanted to rub elbows with famous athletes that didn't tell the athletes where the money came from. Marcus Dupree of the ESPN 30 for 30 episode "The best that never was" received $750K along with Ted Dibiase of WWF fame.

That's typical of the Falcons. They've made stupid moves and drafted the wrong people for most of their franchise history.

Much ❤ to you and your family #4 and so much greatness to football and the 💚💛 GBP nation!!!!! Thank you so very much! Still wearing Wranglers or cutting grass!!?? 😂😂😂😂😂. So much ❤❤❤❤ to you and yours????!!!
@@MarthaNichols-k5m LOL! My comment was a dig on him, yours? Its always nice to see someone with power and money abuse tax payers dollars. PS. Im a Viking fan and my greatest memory of Brett is his 1st season where he tore the Puckers completely apart. My worst memory of him will be remembering how he has no morals and stole from the tax payers of his own state that was intended for the needy. Just sayin!
@@2muchscottIt's OK,he's Brett Favre.
@@KennethSchamehorn lol, Seems like he might want to be someone else these days. lol.
I grew up a bears fan I hated favre. Now i understand just how great he was and i like him a lot.
Like Glanville said, NFL = Not For Long, and Glanville was not for long in the NFL
wonder if he has any volleyball stories
He spiked your mommy.
FLICK BRETT FAVRE ...AND JOE BUCK TOO, FOR GIVING THIS CRIMINAL A PLATFORM!
Welfare Queen
F u too..u a Welfare Queen as well???!!!
Brett, what are your thoughts on tax payer money paying for volleyball stadiums?
He's not the only one doing it, he just has a famous name and background
@@brettseaberg5033he still stole money and he knew he was
Not every interview has to be about dirty laundry. I'd rather hear this than some rehashed scandal.
The scandal is over. Enough already. He repaid the money. No one is perfect. He’s still a legend of the game.
@@qnelson1000 haha he absolutely did not repay the money, holy delusions batman!
Sorry but, why did Jerry Glanville talk with a southern drawl? He grew up in Ohio and Michigan.
That’s my quarterback
Sad. And OJ is your running back, right?
@@KennethSchamehorn No, OJ never played for the packers
As a Niner fan with Montana then Young..there was nobody who I hated playing more than Favre and the Packers he wld throw darts falling down! Seriously he made throws no other QB did
He wasn't lieing when he said he wouldn't let the next guy get in. rodgers had to be hella patient
The thumbnail title! 😄 Imagine u drafted to the league, and that’s how ur welcomed! 😂
This guy loves volleyball
FLICK BRETT FAVRE ...AND JOE BUCK TOO, FOR GIVING THIS CRIMINAL A PLATFORM!
better than what BLM does
When you feel unwanted, it's time to work hardercand use tricks to score and win any way possible.
What awesome editing.....NOT.
Great trade Atlanta.
Madden: Brett Favre... is Brett Favre
Man, it's so sad that he apparently committed criminal welfare fraud and misappropriated(knowingly stole) $1.6M for his mansion and luxury cars, and then helped siphon millions of dollars meant for needy low-income residents(who were denied state aid) of Mississippi to his daughter's college for a new 28,000 square foot volleyball arena with a $6 million price tag.
And the state has multiple text messages showing he knew what he was doing was not only wrong, but potentially criminal. At least he's paid half of his stolen mansion and car money back after being forced to admit wrongdoing or be immediately arrested.
There is still an ongoing criminal investigation into him as well as his accomplices, and there are demands that he be fully prosecuted just like the others involved.
I know he's not convicted yet, but he has already publicly admitted to the charges of wrongdoing. What a f**king scumbag.
Delete the above prejudiced inappropriate remarks from a bitter biased individual unable to overlook or forgive and lists his ‘judgy’ finger here hoping to badmouth Brett Favre and forever stain his marvelous career! What a sad pitiful warped example for everyone to pity…who has not made similar errors in their past(s)? May Gid forgive your bitterness sir…
@@MarthaNichols-k5m I will not delete the 100% factual truth that HE ADMITTED TO. Regardless of his football accomplishments, he is a very wealthy individual who stole MILLIONS of dollars from low-income families that desperately needed the money.
Money that that SCUMBAG spent on his multi-million dollar mansion, luxury cars, and his spoiled brat daughter's crystal palace college volleyball facility.
And who in the actual fk do you think you are to judge me for posting a 100% accurate comment and tell me to take it down? You may be able to overlook his criminal thieving behavior, but most of us will not. He is a piece of garbage who should only be allowed to speak publicly and apologize about the crimes he committed, not be praised as a hero anymore.
@@MarthaNichols-k5m In fact, the first thing he should have done when the first question was asked was to address the crimes he committed and honestly explained why he did it. Then apologized and explained how he is financially rectifying the damage he did to all those families in need that he harmed, and be sincere about it.
That's what a person of integrity and ethics does-admits full responsibility and repairs the damage. He did none of that, only what he had to do on the advice of his lawyer and under threat of criminal prosecution.
He should not be above the law-if you or I had done those things we would be in prison right now for at least 8 years, regardless of any attempts to pay back the stolen money.
Yeah come on. It's Brett freaking Favre. It's OK to be a slimeball stealing weasel. Are you Un-American? 4ji6i
Hard nosed of a quarterback that ever played the game
Why is this guy being promoted?
Joe Buck looks like Barney Fife from the Andy Griffith show
It's a miracle Favre was even drafted. His senior year he threw for just seven touchdowns and six picks with 1572 yards. He rushed 42 times for a Peyton Manning-like negative 218 yards. How is that even possible?
He also got into a drunk driving wreck that caused him to lose a portion of his small intestine which led to the vicodin addiction. He was a mess coming into the NFL.
If that was a serious question, it has to be because they were attributing negative yardage from sacks to his rushing statistics at that time
@connerair3520 I know.. but usually that's mixed with at least a few scrambles for positive yardage. So every time he touched the ball if he didn't hand off or throw was the equivalent of a five yard penalty.
My buddy and I were at the Packers Bengals game when Majik got hurt. We were like “Who’s THIS FAVRE guy???” We ALMOST left,but decided to stay. HOLY CRAP!!! The place went NUTS!!! I even found my ticket stub from that game in an old wallet a few months ago.
I remember when he first played they couldn't even pronounce his name write.
They even said it wrong when he got drafted .
He will always be Brent Favor...
poor people in Mississippi eating cereal w/water instead of milk could give less thanAF
I guess I was rich born. We had government powdered milk to mix with the water.
@@warrenpuckett4203 guess I was not lazy born. We worked extra jobs for an average of 60-80 hours a week to be able to afford things like milk.
@@mr.doctorcaptain1124 Well dad worked 40 hours and planted a acre and a half of veggies. We had 6 peach trees, a cherry tree apple tree and a pear tree. Plus a basement full of canning jars and two wood barrels.. There are three houses where the trees and garden are now.
No trees. Cityified now.
People do not know what to do with apples, pears, cherries and peaches. Except bitch about how bad they smell when they hit ground.
Cherries and peaches make really good wine. If you know how.
He’s not responsible for the misfortune of millions of Americans.
@@mr.doctorcaptain1124 you've never worked in your life
The laugh track it’s cringe
I don’t think there is one. There is a studio audience.
the laugh track is SO BAD
There is literally a audience....wtf 😂
@@packers12to80 notice the audience appears to be the same across multiple interviews and all camera shots are super narrow focus ( never see the audience and the interview on the same shot)
And he said "oh shit, i sent a picture of my soft penis" and then he stole money from poor people.
I cannot wrap my mind around how you can be soooo rich and want to fund your daughter's volleyball building and instead of being an awesome dad, who has more money than he'll ever spend and choose to use/steal the money set aside for the poorest of the poor in the entire nation...annnnd in your hometown on top of that.
Not everyone is forgetting. The man is a weasel.
One wrong doesn’t negate another. Stop making excuses for wrong. This is the problem with America. We call one thing evil while making excuses for the exact same actions for someone we love. Just despicable.
"We call one thing evil while making excuses for the exact same actions for someone we love."
That's called hypocrisy.
Gave 49ers nightmares when he played against them
I remember the Joe Buck show and Artie Lang essentially got him cancelled after one show.
This guy should be in jail. 🙄
For?
This dude a criminal. Dont forget he robbed a state govt benefits program to build a volleyball stadium for his daughter's school.
And like im all for parents doing whats best for a kid... but robbing other parents of their ability to meet the needs of their kids just for opulence of your kid... thats some midevil heinous shenanigans.
Nope 😂😂
State Funds were used for a State University. Nothingburger by the media!
Trivia time!
Brett Favre’s first completion, as an Atlanta Falcon, was to which future Hall of Famer?
I wonder if that Atlanta coach lived to see Brett make the Hall of Fame 😮🫣
He's still kickin: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Glanville
My 2nd ALL TIME player.....right behind Bart!!!(SBartkowski!!!!!
Brett played when defensive lineman could take your head off.He was toughest quarterback I have ever seen !
It's true the Glanville didn't want him. He had a QB who threw for 3000 yards and 26 TD's that same year in Chris Miller. To him it was a wasted pick. Brett left out his being a flat out drunk and missing meetings and being late constantly during that camp. If he hadn't been a 2nd round pick, he would have been cut. There was no chance they were keeping him after that season. And they jumped at the first round pick. Worked out well for him and the Packers.
Ask him what it's like to steal millions from the poorest state in the country. And his home state at that. And then threaten people for exposing him.
Glanville, to this day is probably regretting to have to read this post about letting Farve go..
I’m from Florida an Dan Marino was my all time favorite. But, you CANNOT be a football fan and NOT like Brett Favre.
I am a football fan, I think Favre is a disgrace to the game, dislike him vvv much.
Really enjoyed watching Moats knock him out of a game, break his streak.
He seems have a pretty good memory. Perhaps he can recall the process of securing the funding for the volleyball stadium....
Perhaps.
One of the greatest players. At the time we didn’t care *_WHO_* he was, but now we know - creep! 😢
Um yeah he was great for us till he got to the Vikings, he was horrible for the poor folks in his home state, still a Packers fan but I'm not thrilled with the person off the field favre is, reality says Charles Barkley was right don't have athletes as role models
He was always a double agent from Green Bay, and he threw that pick to the Saints on purpose. You should thank him for that.
People can admire others and even have role models, but they should all come with a disclaimer, “No warranty. Results may vary.”
His "Good Ole Boy" persona kind of falls flat after he got caught scamming money from Mississippi welfare recipients.
As a person from Mississippi, he's a POS for what he did. But I also know that a vast majority of welfare recipients from that place are lifers who definitely abuse the system to get that money for essentially their whole life. The governing of the state is even worse. So much is paid in taxes and it goes nowhere near education, infrastructure, or anything that progresses the conditions of the state. Straight into the pockets of scumbags is where it all goes. Will never go back there.
Low IQ remark. He didn't scam anyone. It was public employees that wanted to rub elbows with famous athletes that didn't tell the athletes where the money came from. Marcus Dupree of the ESPN 30 for 30 episode "The best that never was" received $750K along with Ted Dibiase of WWF fame.
Was he found guilty?
Bret was a great QB, dearly loved by whole country.
Good health well wishes.
