Gooses Take : Brett Favre





Its no secret what type of Football player can be one of "Goose's Guys". No Deion Sanders or michael Irvin. No Randy Moss or TO's. It takes Guts, Heart and Class to make the list as one of Goose's Guys.


I look around my little office and I see some of the things I have collected over the last several years. A Bobby Engram signed mini ball, Bobble heads of Brian Urlacher and Napoleon Kaufman (Given to me this Xmas by my oldest Gossling, found in a thrift store). A James Hasty football card. Numerous game balls from Newport. Also there is a Brett Favre Autographed Football that I received as a gift back in 96.


I love Brett Favre. I love the way he plays the game. I've probably watched as many Brett Favre games then I have Redskin games over the last 15 years. I remember watching him throw for 4TDs the day after his father died. I remember the look on his face after each TD. I remember watching his 2 Super bowls. I remember numerous crap weather games in Lambeau field. And yes I remember him beating the Seahawks. I can still see the scramble, the underhand toss to Bubba Franks for the 1st down.


Statistically he is the greatest QB to have played the game. He is Footballs version of Cal Ripken, and his streak of 275 starts will probably stand longer than any of his other records. If I had to start a team and could pick any QB right now...Id take Brett Favre. He'd be one of Goose's Guys

I think any true sports fan anywhere would want #4 to be the one taking snaps for their team...

one team that is currently in heavy mourning is Team Madden...

So you have this turf nowadays, which is half grass...half artificial...and then you have Brett Favre...and he's the real deal..."
