Gunslinger: The Remarkable, Improbable, Iconic Life of Brett Favre by Jeff Pearlman

3.0

---

I read this because I heard "this is a book Brett Favre doesn't want you to read." I knew a lot about his philandering in college because I had friends from Green Bay who talked about seeing him in the bars and all the rumors that flew around. I LOVED Brett when he was a Packer, and I have so many good memories of watching the games and Super Bowl seasons when I was in college. He really became dead to me when he unretired, and especially when he went to the Vikings. This book really made me angry during the chapters he was there, and now that he's been caught stealing welfare funds to build stadiums at his alma mater, well. We'll miss you, Brent.
