Book Reviews of Favre: For the Record
Book Review: NFL/Favre Fan
Summary: 4 Stars
Although a little disturbed by his recent actions, I have always been a Favre fan. Really enjoy how he plays the game with enthusiasm and kid-like excitement. I don't believe that can be faked...unlike some of his current media statements, including the tears. Anyway, it was good to go back and read more about him as a person and a player in more of his earlier days (some might say the 'good ol days'). Clearly this book came out shortly after all the drama about his painkiller addiction. While this was an important time in his life and the message of addiction & recovery is a strong one to get out to kids and his fans, I wish the book wouldn't have focused so much of its time on that. I would have preferred more discussion about football. More indepth discussions about things like how he felt before and after games, how the bonds with his teammates were formed that produced the SuperBowl winning team that year, etc... There were some meaty chapters that focused on the football aspect--and those were my favorite parts. Would have liked a little more of that. But all in all, it was an interesting read. Particularly poignant to read of his devotion to the Green Bay fans and that organization now with all that has transpired. But hey...thats the other side of the 'game'--its a business too, right?
