À propos de cet audio

A towering figure on the field for two decades and destined for the Hall of Fame, Brett Favre was one of the game's last cowboys, a fastball-throwing, tobacco-chewing gunslinger who refused to give up without a fight. This peerless quarterback guided the Green Bay Packers to two Super Bowls and one championship win, shattering countless NFL records along the way.

Gunslinger tells Brett Favre's full, definitive story for the first time, drawing on more than 500 interviews, including many from the people closest to Favre. Jeff Pearlman charts Favre's journey, from his rough rural childhood and lackluster high school football career to landing the last roster spot at Southern Mississippi to a late-night car accident that nearly took his life. Favre clawed back, getting drafted into the NFL, first to Atlanta, then to Green Bay, where he restored the Packers to greatness and inspired a fan base as passionate as any in the game. Yet he struggled with demons: addiction, infidelity, the loss of his father the day before he honored him by playing the greatest game of his career, and ultimately a fraught, painfully prolonged exit from the game he loved.

This was a very interesting look into a public figure that I thought I knew, as it turns out there was a lot more to his story than I realized. This book was a pretty unflinching account of a beloved football player who like the rest of us was human and made his share of mistakes. I did enjoy the book but at times found the narration a bit annoying as the narrator used almost childlike voices when speaking in the third person. Otherwise, a very interesting book for anyone who is a Packers fan, a Brett Favre fan or a football fan.

Very interesting
