Thanks for the comment, Michael. I believe a man is innocent until proven and I also believe all human beings make mistakes and there is room in one lifetime to make many, and atone for many. To answer your question – yes, I still have the same love for the guy as I always have. Have been a fan for almost 2 decades and that’s not going to change now.

To state Favre brings a level of drama not seen before in pro sports makes me think you haven’t been following pro sports for very long. I’ve been around long enough to know that what Favre allegedly did was quite tame in comparison to what’s been reported of many of the pros out there.

Thanks for your comments on the book – I hope you’ve found it helpful!

I recently bought your WordPress for dummies book figuring I finally needed to see what all the wordpress fuss is about. Liking it so much I decided to take a look at your blog to read more of your infinite wordpress wisdom. That is until I reached this post.

My life basically involves three things:

1. My family
2/3. Green Bay Packers/Building websites

My love of the Pack has become a little more like an addiction. I was drawn to the nfl and the Pack because of favre for all the reasons you listed. I too went through the whole heartbreaking Brett Favre drama in a similar fashion, without the “acceptance” phase. I felt betrayed and scammed. It wasn’t him retiring/waffling/playing for the hated Vikings. It was the selfish/egocentric manner he did it in.

He had us all fooled for so many years. We thought he was out there throwing those touchdowns for us. But now we see it has always really been about him.

Now I can agree to disagree about old #4 but I was just curious if you still feel the same “love” for him now that he is a cheating texting perve that has taken Dramaqueen to a level not seen before in pro sports.

Still love your book just not your taste in athletes.

I’m sorry to say that I’m still saddened by the loss to NO! Silly I know, but I’m still such a huge fan of Brett’s! Great article!

Brett is an all time great, however, he has had bad timing in the playoffs recently.

I have been a Vikings fan for as long as I can remember. And I’m not even from Minnesota. I hated Brett Favre when he was a Packer, and I was mad as a hornet when the Vikings signed him. But as the season went on and Brett worked his magic once again, I learned to respect him. Anyone as old as he is and can still play like he did this past season deserves respect.

I could care less about football. But I think Favre is such a sexy hunk. It’s hard to keep up with him season to season – did he retire? – and I certainly can’t ask my husband

I remember when he played college ball. I knew he was going to go to the nfl

Dare I say it as I hail from New Zealand (the home of the All Blacks) I agree with your husband on his views of American football vs Rugby.

However also being around the 40yrs old vintage, I got a lot of respect for Mr Favre who’s representing 40yr old sportsman the world over!!
