Favre got So. Miss in Field Goal range with just seconds left only to see their kicker cling one off the up rights no good. Georgia won 18 -17. But everyone listening or watching that game knew he was special.

PS. Leave it to the Atlanta "Fucking" Falcons to be the team that had both Brett Favre & Deion Sanders on the same team and find a way to fuck that up!

Favre may not have ever been the same guy had he stayed in Atlanta or any relatively large city. Even Brett admits he tried to drink up all of Buckhead. Then showing up late for practice and hung over as a rookie, what coach wouldn't want a guy gone?
