Brett Favre is what's right about the National Football League. I have nothing but tremendous respect for him. I think they've got five names up there (on the list of retired numbers at Lambeau Field), and he'll be the sixth one to go up there, no doubt.
football guys player seems stands together tremendous void
I think he's going to be one of those guys where the day comes and he's not there, there's going to be a void there because it seems like he's always been there every week.

His record speaks for itself. We came into the league together in 1992 and I have nothing but tremendous respect for him and what he did in Green Bay and now in Seattle. We served three years together on the NFL competition committee, so I got to know him more as a person. I think the world of him and Kathy and his daughters. It's funny that he's got four girls and I've got three girls, so we've got a lot in common.
