[QUOTE="sschind, post: 829221, member: 10247"] He made that comment after his career was over though. I'm sure after 20 years having played in that many consecutive games is an accomplishment anyone would be proud of and rightly so. As he was building the steak however it may have been less important. As it grew it may have taken on more significance like putting out the side in the 8th and 9th innings seems more important than doing it in the 2nd and 3rd, or bowling your 11th and 12th consecutive strike seems more important than your 3rd and 4th even though the later ones wouldn't mean a thing if the earlier ones wouldn't have happened. I'm sure every player wants to start every game and I have no problem with that. If a player is injured and him starting would put the team at a disadvantage its up to the coaches to sit him. I don't expect a player who is a leader and and competitor to voluntarily step down unless it is super obvious but if the player is a leader and a competitor I wouldn't expect there to be many super obvious circumstances in his opinion. I'm sure as the streak grew it was on his mind but I doubt Favre ever thought he was hurting his team by starting just to keep it going. The thing is Favre never had any token starts to keep the streak going. Playing a series or even a few snaps then bowing out. I've heard of that happening just to keep streaks alive but if Favre started it was with the intention of playing the entire game. [/QUOTE]
