Saluting QB Brett Favrvrvre
Part of Dan Marino’s speech honoring Brett Favre’s record breaking season - courtesy of The Onion.
“Join me in saluting Brett Favre for breaking the all-time interception record of 277 set by George Blanda—truly a milestone for the ages,” Marino intoned during the opening montage, which featured Favre throwing some of his most memorable picks. “Some say records were made to be broken—personally, I’ve never believed that—but in any case the career interception mark was believed to be unreachable. It takes a player with an unusual combination of not knowing when to retire, not knowing when to stop trying to rack up the completions, and not knowing when to stop trying to throw touchdowns. And it seems that lucky player is everyone’s big hero quarterback, Brett Favre.”
