Brett Favre was officially voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame tonight here in San Francisco.
Favre won the MVP award in three consecutive seasons from 1995 to 1997 and had a peak of his career that rivals any quarterback to ever play the game. His day in Canton was delayed a few seasons by coming out of retirement and finishing out his career with the Minnesota Vikings, a team he nearly took to the Super Bowl in the 2009 season. His arm strength, willingness to make difficult throws, and ability to play through any injury at a high level helped define a singular career.
