GREEN BAY, Wis. -- There the two legends sat, together. One in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The other, not.
And to Brett Favre, that just didn’t seem right.
The iconic Green Bay Packers quarterback was back in Titletown last Sunday to be feted yet again. This time he was having his name unveiled in Lambeau Field’s Ring of Honor, a distinction reserved only for the team’s Pro Football Hall of Famers -- the latest of which Favre had become in August.
But as Favre, in the team’s alumni suite, waited during the Packers’ game against the Dallas Cowboys for the halftime celebration to commence, he found himself scanning the stadium’s façade, reading all the names.
