Brett Favre Hall of Fame
Brett Favre entered the 2016 Hall of Fame this week. In his Hall of Fame speech...he mostly talked about his father who had passed:
"On our flight back (after the game), it was a long flight, as you can imagine," Farve said. "There was a lot of emotions. We just won the game and it was probably the best game I've ever played, but that didn't really matter at that point. And we laughed, we cried, we tried to sleep...My father was short on praise and long on tough love. If he were ever to praise me, it was always 'you can do better.' He was always pushing me to be better. That was OK. Never did I hear him say, 'Son, you've arrived. You're the best. That was awesome. Great game.' It was always, 'Yeah, but.'
It might be the most selfless speech (very unlike him), poignant, and funny too.
Honored his wife, family and especially his dad.
