Happy 40th Birthday, Brett Favre!

Asked for his birthday plans, Favre said, "Travel to St. Louis." Seriously, nothing?

"For the last 19 years, all the holidays including my birthday, I’m either playing or getting ready to play," he said. "No different this week, unless Brad (Childress) is going to throw me a big party. I think it deserves something. I really do. I just want to throw that out there. Forty."

Happy Birthday, Brett. You've shown the pundits and fans that, like a fine wine, your age has not prevented you from playing the game you love - effectively. Why the naysayers just don't listen to me and my brother (and other pro-Favreites) is beyond me. Morons. Good luck the rest of the season. GO FAVRE! GO VIKINGS IN 2009!
