Publisher's Note
Frank, funny, and For the Record, Brett Favre speaks the truth. What does it take to perform at the NFL MVP level two years in a row, win a Super Bowl, and overcome a debilitating addiction to painkillers in the intense media spotlight? In a heartfelt yet hilarious behind-the-scenes chronicle of the roller-coaster 1996-97 season, Favre tells all the only way he knows - without prejudice and without excuse.

Superstar Green Bay Packer quarterback Brett Favre has the arm of Dan Marino, the agility of Steve Young, the field presence of Joe Montana and the brashness of Jim McMahon. Born the son of an indomitable high school football coach in hardscrabble Kiln, Mississippi, Favre has gone on to become the NFLs most valuable player two years running (a feat equaled only by the legendary Joe Montana) and, after twenty-nine years, has brought the Lombardi Trophy back to Green Bay, Wisconsin. Favre has also paid dearly for his devotion to the brutal game of professional football. Priding himself on his ability to withstand incredible levels of physical pain and to continue playing when most players would head to the sidelines, Favre admitted last year to a dependency on Vicodin pain killers. But he faced his problem like he faces opposing defensive linemen, head-on, and voluntarily admitted himself into the Menninger Clinic in Topeka, Kansas for drug counseling. In Favre, Brett shares portions of his daily journal written during treatment and will reveal just what it took to break a debilitating habit. In the end, readers will be inspired by this small town son's sacrifice and struggle to make it to the NFL, his unwavering commitment to honor his profession, and his perseverance to realize his dream on his own terms.

Industry Reviews
"I was a drug addict," admits Favre on the opening page of his autobiography, whose first two chapters are devoted to his addiction to painkillers and his rehabilitation. The son of secondary-school teachers in the town of Kiln, Miss., he grew up next to a bayou populated by alligators and snakes. After excelling in football at the University of Southern Mississippi, he was drafted by the Atlanta Falcons and spent a year on the bench. Then in 1992 he was traded to Green Bay, where he made his mark as one of the best quarterbacks in history, was named the NFL's most valuable player in 1995 and 1996 and led the team to victory in Super Bowl XXXI. Green Bay Press-Gazette sports columnist Havel has helped Favre to present himself here as a fun-loving, small-town guy who tells us in the same paragraph that he was "kinda old" to believe in Santa in sixth grade, it's "kind of funny" he didn't want to give up that belief and it "kind of" spoiled Christmas for him when he did. Favre comes across as a loyal individual, but aside from the gridiron victories, readers won't find much excitement here other than the alligators and snakes next door. (Oct.)
