Chip Scoggins and Chris Miller poke a little fun at both the birthday boy and his former team:
FAMOUS OCT. 10 BIRTHDAYS
Guiseppe Verdi (1813) Refused to retire. Died at age 87. Composed romantic operas, none set in Green Bay.
Thelonious Monk (1917) The great jazz pianist retired when he was 54. Packers fans preferred accordion players.
Tanya Tucker (1958) The country singer’s “Two Sparrows in a Hurricane” is interpreted by some as Favre’s ode to Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy.
