Favre: A 250th Retrospective Look

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel photographer Tom Lynn took the occasion of Brett Favre's 250th regular-season consecutive start at home against the Oakland Raiders (we won, 38-7) to focus his camera exclusively on the Green Bay Packers quarterback, from the time he emerged from the tunnel at the beginning of the game to the time he waved his farewell to the Lambeau Field fans at the end. Great B&W photos with audio of Favre taken from his press conference after the game. Check it out here: http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=694927

NOTE: (1/4) This slideshow is supposed to start on its own - with audio. As it stands, you have to manually flip through it and there's no audio. I talked to a rep at the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel and the NFl threatened to pull the paper's credentials (to get into games) if they didn't pull Brett's audio. Apparently the NFL owns the rights to those press conferences and any snippets used. Bummer.
