Legendary quarterback Brett Favre was born born on October 10, 1969 under the name of Brett Lorenzo Favre. He was born in Gulfport, Mississippi. He is the second of the four boys, which he grew up around the wilds of bayou country, hunting and fishing with his three brothers. In his school days, just like his siblings, he showed a great passion for baseball and football. He seemed to be a better baseball player, because he earned a starting position on his high school team called Hancock North…

Probably more so in the National Football League. We see it with Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning and of course the New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. Manning receives so much scrutiny because he has only won one Super Bowl. I'd be a fool not to admit he does have some playoff "gitters," but he will still go down as one of if not the best quarterback of all-time. He might retire leading in all quarterback categories. We all know the Patriots have been caught cheating on…

All football teams consist of offense, defense and special teams, and all three positions have specific duties they have to do within a game. The top three positions on defense, also the most important, are cornerback, linebacker, and defensive line. On the defensive side, cornerback tends to be the most popular and important player, both in college and NFL levels. The cornerback has many responsibilities, one of which is guarding the player who is sent out to catch the ball that is thrown to…

Walter Payton’s playing style included a stutter-stepping run, stiff-arming tacklers and a disdain for touchdown celebrations in the end zone. 6 - Joe Montana, Quarterback, San Francisco 49ers Selected 82nd in the NFL draft by the 49ers, Joe Montana proved his worth to the team with his ability to deliver a football with precision and touch. He led the 49ers to four Super Bowl victories and was named the Super Bowl…

When you hear the word Michael Vick a lot of controversy comes up because everyone knows him as the man who was arrested for illegal dog fighting. But there is a whole lot more to him then what some people think. Like did you know he played in the NFL? Ok yes you probably did but what else do can you tell me about him? See it is harder than you thought. Before his legal troubles he was a very successful and promising athlete. Even after his time in prison he still found success in the NFL. This…

This story must begin with an understanding of how the Super Bowl has evolved. Though it has always been a big game -- the first edition placed enormous stress on a man named Vince Lombardi (and probably contributed to his early death in 1970 at age 57) -- the cultural significance of the Super Bowl needed time to emerge in American life. Accordingly, the weight of the Super Bowl wasn't larger than life at the beginning. The game had to become a cultural event. The empty seats for the first…

drafted by the club in 2010. His career numbers include 280 receptions, 2,722 receiving yards, and 24 touchdowns. Last season, the tight end caught 62 passes and five touchdowns. Gresham joins an Arizona Cardinals roster that includes Carson Palmer (Quarterback), Larry Fitzgerald (Wide Receiver), Tyrann Mathieu (Safety), and Patrick Peterson (Cornerback). The NFL season will begin on September 10th, and there are still quite a bit of notable free agents still on the market. Reggie…

The age-old argument of Tom Brady vs. Peyton Manning has been going on since Brady was drafted in 2000. Who is the better quarterback? Who’s the best quarterback to ever play in the NFL. It must be one of these two. My money is on Peyton Manning. I don’t want to take shine away from Brady, though, because both are spectacular in their own ways. Let me tell you why it must be Manning. I might be a bit of a bandwagon when it comes to Manning, but there is good reason for it. This man is a God…

as a professional Football player and the media hated him for it. In 2006 he got a scholarship to the college of his dreams, the Florida Gators. His freshmen year was spent as a backup quarterback, but still helped get the Gators to the BCS Championships. The next season he got the starting passion as quarterback and with this, he brought his team back to the BCS Championships and won. Along with this achievement he received a Heisman and a Davey O’Brien award.…
