Brett Favre is a living legend in the history of American Football. At age 40,he never ceases to amaze his loyal fans,and sometimes to anger those who hate his guts,and mostly surprises himself about his ongoing stamina.
"Nineteen NFL seasons have taken their toll, and when he gets out of bed in the morning he feels every one of the hits he's taken. His ankle barks at him as soon as his foot hits the floor, his knees creak as he stands up and his back groans as he stretches to get loosened up for another day as a 40-year-old quarterback."according to a recent article posted on his official website
"There's nothing on me 100 percent," Favre said. "There wasn't anything on me 100 percent last year or the year before. The surgeries, I think, have made me a little better, but I've played 309 straight games, I can't complain."
He can't quit, either.
