Favre is a person who I admired as a player with his longevity and toughness but literally hate as a person.
He and his cronies, Chmura and Winters, were known as the 3-amigos and the stuff they did at Favre’s Steakhouse in Milwaukee on their off day during the season was beyond belief. They hit on most every woman in the place. Favre cheated regularly on his wife who had cancer. She wrote her book admitting to knowing about it but probably loved the money he brought home making her stay. Either way, she did not deserve that. His cheating was blatant. The 3-amigos finally broke up when Chewy got busted hitting on 16 year olds in his hot tub although he was ultimately acquitted of it with his high priced lawyers.
I also HATED that Favre gave Strahan, who he is friends with, the sack record. In that last game of the season, Strahan needed 1 sack to break the season sack record. The Pack were up by 2 scores with a little over 2 minutes left and effectively running the ball. The play call was for a run left. Favre decided instead to roll out right, unbeknownst to the entire team, as if he were going to throw, right into Strahan’s arms (Favre actually just went down) for the “sack”. Favre got up and patted Strahan on the ass. His OLINE was livid with him, especially Tauscher who had helped keep Strahan in check all game. After the game, when asked about the play by reporters, Tauscher took the high road and told the reporters to talk to Favre. What he did was very low class.
Even though I was a Bears fan, I always disrespected Favre for how he held the GB mgmt. at large threatening to retire for 5 years running. The Pack drafted Rodgers and then Favre said he was done the winter prior to them drafting Brohm and Flynn in the same draft. This was after GB went down to visit him to see where he sat. He then decided he was still going to play after they drafted 2 QBs. He eventually got what he wanted going to the Jets with his ultimate move going to Minn where he could play against GB.
Lastly, the moron texted a picture of his junk to the Jets female reporter, this all after the crap he had done to his wife with cancer over and over. Another low life move by Favre.
Favre was nothing but scum as a person.
