For the Record

For the Record, by Brett Favre and Chris Havel, is a biography about Brett Favre. The story tells about how Favre became an NFL MVP two years in a row, his ability to win a Super Bowl, and how he overcame a debilitating addiction to painkillers.

Brett Favre was born in a small town of Kiln, Mississippi. Small town life suits Favre. Kiln, Mississippi was about twelve miles from the Gulf of Mexico and so close to the Rotten Bayou that he could spit into it off his deck. Favre grew up with four dogs; Fluffy, Whiskey, Bullet, and Lucky. Lucky, who turned out no so lucky with the other dogs, was one of the four eaten up by an alligator just off the mucky river of the Rotten Bayou. Both of Favre’s parents were education teachers at Hancock North Central High School. As Favre attended Hancock High, he and his two brothers played quarterback for his father.

Favre chose to play for the University of Southern Mississippi. Favre’s first game was against Tulane. He was seventeen years old playing as a true freshman. Favre wasn’t feeling too good after the long night of playing drinking games with his roommates. They were already down 17-3, but the coaches still believed in him. Favre threw a touchdown pass in the end and rallied to win 31-24. The next week his coach, Coach McHale sat him down and said, “We’re going to start you.” Favre would be facing Texas A&M in Jackson, Mississippi. Texas was ranked in the Associated Press Top Ten. They lost the game 28-14, which was no big surprise to him or the team. Favre started the rest of the season, still at the age of seventeen. He completed 79 of 194 passes for 1,264 yards and fifteen tou
