[QUOTE="nathaniel, post: 149301, member: 766"] The MNF in 03 against the Raiders was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. It's a long story, and I don't know if I should completely open up about it, but I had an uncle, who I was very close with, that lived in New Mexico, and my wife and I (she was just my girlfriend at the time) were moving from Phoenix back home to Iowa where all of our family is. We stopped at my uncle's house on the way and stayed the night. We woke up the next morning to leave, but my uncle didn't come out of his room. He had a massive heart attack during the night and passed away. He was 40. Anyways, the move home was very somber, and not exciting like it should have been. The first few days were horrible, and I didn't know what to do with myself. I tried to console my family, but didn't take time for myself to come to terms with what had happened. Then I heard the news that Favre's dad had passed away. It sucked, cause I had just lost someone very close and I knew what he was going through. When I heard that he was still going to play, I kept thinking, how is he going to do it? So, I sat infront of my TV by myself and watched the greatest game I had ever seen. There were a couple of times that I just barely held it in, and at the end of the game I bawled like a little kid. How he played the way he did, after what he went through, was just amazing. I couldn't have done it. Sorry for the rambling. But I'll never forget that game. That game is one of those things that will stay with me and that I'll talk about for the rest of my life. [/QUOTE]
