For months, Bart Starr prepared for his Thanksgiving halftime appearance with Brett Favre at Lambeau Field as if he was going through two-a-days under Vince Lombardi. It was, says Cherry Starr, a “magical moment.” Now comes next?

Great quote:
His physical therapist told [Zeke] Bratkowski that Starr had been throwing short passes with a football as part of his therapy, and that he'd thrown a perfect spiral.

"I said, 'Well, that's the first time he's ever done that,'" Bratkowski said. "That got a big smile out of him. Every time I see him, he's a little bit better, he's made more progress."

:tup: Maybe he can join the Packers on the field in SB 50 for the raising of the Lombardi Trophy!

I admit to being worried that Starr would fade after Favre's ceremony, once he achieved his goal. I'm glad to hear that it was merely another trophy in his case as he continues to improve.
