League News___

Favre joined the Packers in 1992. He became the starter September 27, 1992, and has never let the job go since. Favre is on the verge of holding a number of NFL records. His team is 3-0 and looks to make it 4-0 this weekend.

Touchdown passes: 420 *Ties Marino, Dan has 420 too. Tarkenton managed 342

Passes attempted: Marino: 8,358 Favre: 8,348

Passing Yards gained: Marino: 61,361 Favre: 58,361

Regular season wins: Elway: 148 Marino: 147 Favre: 150 (*Got this on down.)

Consecutive starts: Favre will have 241 this Sunday. The second longest recorded streak of all time, and the most by any NFL QB. Favre comes in second to Minnesota lineman Jim Marshall. Marshall has a record of 270 consecutive starts. To contrast this just a bit, how amazing this is: Peyton Manning in his 10th season has 145 consecutive starts. Favre is king where QB starts is concerned. Being honest, Manning is great, I doubt Manning can play or will choose to play long enough to break this record. And I say that even if Peyton dodges any and all serious injuries. Right now each time Favre starts so does Manning. If Favre, the living football Legend, chooses not to play after this season, only then can anyone start to gain ground on consecutive starts. Good luck, good luck, to any QB chasing this record.

Favre says: "That's why they have records, so the next guy can break them."

Records fall. But Championships, like true Champions endure. Beyond tomorrow, after the sun sets...on and on. In our hearts, stories and dreams.

You are one of a kind Mr. Favre and when you step onto the field for the last time, I'll cry. Truly. Good luck this year old lion.
