Jerry Glanville didn't really like Brett Favre

Karl correctly pointed out that Favre's first career pass was actually an interception return for a touchdown. He made the throw as a Falcons' rookie.

Favre's first pass as a Packer was a completion to himself after the ball had been deflected.

Karl also reminds us that former Falcons coach Jerry Glanville, who was against drafting Favre in the second round in 1991, once said it would take a plane crash to get Favre into a game.

Really.

I believe the term "blowhard" applies here.

Yes...but what did Elvis think?

Very funny Black n Gold..good stuff.
If my memory serves me correctly, Favre was famous in Atlanta for being able to throw the football into the upper deck stands. He would win bets before the game (or at least one bet with Glanville before the game) by throwing it into the upper deck. Not sure how many quarterbacks can do that.


Sorry about posting anonymous. That was me...
