1. He was already on CNN this morning along with an interview with his
mother. To be fair, Brett and his family have done, and given a lot for the area through the years. His family home is destroyed. Luckily, his family is safe. A news conference is a bit much though. :hi:

2. He has family in LA....
he wants to send supplies, and is being told "No", last I heard.

Celebs voicing concern is o.k., IMO.

7. The headline under him was "talks about the struggles of his family"
It didn't seem like he was saying anything important

8. Mississippi actually
I guess his mother and his grandmother were up in the attic to avoid the surge. At least the Favres have the resources to rebuild.

3. Sometimes celebrity carries more weight than anything else
If he can do something, ANYTHING to get these people some additional help, LET HIM SPEAK.

5. He has done a hell of a lot for the area over the years, and his family
lost their home. Everyone is in this together down there...at least, I like to think.

6. Well whatdoyaknow?????
Brett has grown up.....

he has a conscience....

he has compassion....

far, far cry from the guy who cut a "wide swath" across NE Wisconsin with a certain infamous Tight End.
