An excerpt from the book:
Most football fans know who Brett Favre is: a three-time NFL MVP who is the face of the Green Bay Packers franchise. In fact, when people talk about the Packers, they are sure to bring Favre into the discussion. And who can blame them? He donned the team’s Green and Gold colors for 16 seasons. He’s one of those quarterbacks whom people associate with just one team (just like Johnny Unitas of the Baltimore Colts, Joe Namath of the New York Jets, and Dan Marino of the Miami Dolphins).
If you had watched Favre all these years, you were amazed at how precise his throws to his receivers were. Some of them even defied logic: How could Favre have eluded several angry linebackers to throw a perfect spiral to the end zone? How could Favre have endured in the challenging National Football League? As you will find out, there’s only one answer to that: Hard work.
However, it is much more than that. You may think Favre had it all: an illustrious career, an MVP trophy, admiring fans, and a happy family. To truly appreciate Favre’s journey, one has to dig deeper – much deeper. He traces his roots to little-known Kiln, Mississippi, a small town an hour away from New Orleans where Favre honed his legendary football skills. As a child, he had it all – strength, dedication, and the matching work ethic. Favre never wasted his talents. He knew he had what it took to succeed. Nonetheless, he never took anything for granted. You would also be surprised at the several stumbling blocks Favre had to overcome to achieve greatness. Even though he is a famous personality, he is a Mississippi country boy at heart. He is just like any regular person who encounters trials on the journey of life.
However, what sets Favre apart from the rest is his resilience. As you read this book, try to appreciate every single moment he went through. Once you do that, you will have a newfound appreciation for the legend of Brett Lorenzo Favre.
