CANTON, Ohio -- Brett Favre summed up his journey to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in one part of his 36-plus minute induction speech:
“Who would have ever thought that a young man from Kiln, Mississippi, whose father ran the wishbone [offense] would hold every passing record in NFL history at one time?” Favre said. “Pretty doggone amazing if you ask me.”
Most of those passing records will eventually fall if they haven’t already; Peyton Manning broke Favre’s touchdown and passing yardage marks, and Favre surely hopes someone breaks his interception record.
