Sports Illustrated printed around a million copies - available only in Wisconsin and select airports. I believe this is the first time they've done this with any athlete, Here's a few shots - you know I love find great pictures of Brett to post but I'm gonna be selfish and keep the rest to myself.
"A man in full - at 38 the Packer's Iron Man closed out an extraordinary career with one of his finest seasons. His passing was more precise, his leadership more evident than ever. But the real measure of Favre's stature is in the devotion he inspires in those he touches and in his dedication to improving their lives."
"For 17 seasons, you have been there, doing it the right way. Starting every game, playing until the whistle blows and loving every minute. We admire your dedication, your 0ld-school values and your passion. Congratulations on your retirement, Brett. You continue to make us proud."

Gotta love the "Snapper" ad...a classic!
