I forgot one pick: New Orleans 27, ATLANTA 13
Since Brett Favre is all the rage right now (as well he should be with last week's game heroics and his 40th birthday coming on Oct. 10th), I'm dusting off a decade-old, 18-minute banquet speech I made that features a pair of schlubbs (me and another guy) trying to get Brett to autograph a brand new Packer helmet for then high-riding nighttime radio host Art Bell.
It's a funny story well-told, which made it popular before YouTube and Facebook, but nobody has seen it for a decade. It's main point is that it ultimately shows Brett in an out-of-the-limelight situation in which he is instinctively polite and courteous when he has absolutely no need to be. It casts him in a favorable light that I'm sure many fans would appreciate knowing about.
If you'd like to check it out and read a bit more about how it came to be, here's the link: http://www.lloydpye.com/news.html.
