Not too bad of a choice IMO. He's had a good year.

Jimmie Johnson deserves some recognition for his year. Nascar wants to integrate the sport by adding a playoff format, and he completely dominated his post season even more than Josh Beckett did his.

What about Barry Bonds?? haha

You could practically give it to Tiger Woods every year - to win 5+ events, plus one or more majors EVERY year is astounding. Favre is a nice choice. I honestly thought his days of leading GB to the post-season were long gone. He has made it work with far less weapons than Brady, Manning, and Romo.

I think Brett Favre was a great choice. Everyone was questioning him for coming back last year and he really shut them up this year with an excellent performance. I still love watching him play.

Just love the swagger that he plays with, and unlike Brady, he comes across as just a regular guy with the mentality of a linebacker.

brett favre in my eyes is one of the greatest competitors in nfl history.he lives and dies by the gun..the game is never over with brett in the game..

Favre's not a bad choice. Though I personally probably would have given it to Roger Federer this year

the same Federer that lost to old man Sampras? Bonds would have been the choice if he had one ounce of personality. he gets what he deserves. Farve is a good choice

federer and woods could win it every year. football trumps all though (i cant stand watching tennis or golf on tv).

favre is a good choice.
