Even though I reside in Utah, I am a huge Green Bay Packer fan. My entire family is from Wisconsin, so I was born and raised a cheesehead. My aunt and uncle, who live in Waupaca, emailed me after the Packers lost in the playoffs. They told me they are now in Wisconsin Winter Wonderland: the people of Wisconsin wondering all winter whether or not Brett Favre will retire.
Well, Wisconsin, there will be no more wondering. Brett Favre announced his retirement yesterday. I kind of predicted that it would happen this time around. He had a great season and there's nothing better than to go out on a high note. He's been in the league for 17 years and has given the Packers a Superbowl Championship during that time. In this last season alone, he has broken many records, including all-time touchdown passes!
Brett Favre will be known as one of the greatest NFL quarterbacks in history. A great athlete and a great person, I wear my cheesehead in honor of his excellence!
