So a new goal entered my mind. I said to myself, I will make it to the Hall of Fame so I could acknowledge the fact of how important he was.And then the emotions hit. After a long pause and fighting back tears, Favre said, This is tougher than any third-and-15.Irv coached his son in high school, and Favre said he once heard his dad tell his assistant coaches after one game that his son might not have played well but that he would redeem himself.I want you to know, Dad, I spent the rest of my career trying to redeem myself and make him proud, Favre said. I hope I succeeded.Irv would have presented his son had he not died at age 58.

He was inducted into the Packers Hall of Fame last summer and his retired No. 4 was unveiled on the Lambeau Field fa?ade on Thanksgiving night last year, with one of his idols, Bart Starr, in the house.That event served as the final mend between the Packers, their fans and Favre, who originally retired in 2008 only to change his mind later that summer. GM Ted Thompson then traded Favre to the New York Jets. He retired again after one season only to come bback and play two more seasons for the Minnesota Vikings.ddddddddddddAtlanta to Minnesota, 20 years, Favre said in summing up his career. But make no mistake about, I will be remembered as a Packer.Thompson was in the crowd Saturday and led a contingent of Packers that included quarterback Aaron Rodgers and kicker Mason Crosby, who are the only two current Packers who played with Favre, and coach Mike McCarthy.It just sends tingles up your spine, Thompson told ESPN.com as the ceremony began. Its almost like a home game for the Packers. Just listen to this [chant of Go, Pack, go]. This means so much to all these people, to us, to Brett and his family.For me, its just a remarkable sense of pride. I was lucky enough to be hired by Ron Wolf in 1992, and so I got to see it when it all began. And that started with Brett. And it started with Mike Holmgren. And it started with Ron Wolf. But Bretts ability to do what he did was just remarkable. I cant say enough about what Brett meant to the Green Bay Packers.The NFLs iron-man quarterback started a record 297 consecutive regular-season games. It began when he replaced Don Majkowski in the Packers starting lineup on Sept. 27, 1992, and ended on Dec. 13, 2010, when the Vikings turned in their pregame inactive list with No. 4 on it.Along the way, the free-wheeling Favre threw for an NFL-record 71,838 yards and 508 touchdowns, marks that were later eclipsed by Peyton Manning.

Other players enshrined included Marvin Harrison, Orlando Pace, Dick Stanfel, Kevin Greene, Ken Stabler, Edward DeBartolo Jr. and Tony Dungy.Favre spoke the longest. Twenty-nine minutes in, he said: They told me Ive got eight to 10 minutes, and Ive got every one of these guys clocking me right now. Im going for a world record. I dont give a damn.Favre opened by saying he was going to ask Thompson and McCarthy if he could play the first series of Sunday nights Hall of Fame game against the Colts.All this excitement has me wanting to call [ESPNs] Ed Werder and spread the word again, Favre said.He closed with some advice.Work as hard as you possibly can, lay it all on the line, and whatever happens, happens, Favre said. But you wont look back and regret.I dont regret anything. Thats not to say it was perfect. I dont regret anything, and thats what Im most proud of. ' ' '
