Remembering Favre

MARCH 04, 2008

Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre announced his retirement today after a 17-year career in which he won passed for more than 60,000 yards and 400 touchdowns, won a Super Bowl and claimed three league MVP awards.

Favre, 38, set several career records, including most touchdown passes (442), while leading the Packers to the NFC Championship Game this past season.
