By all accounts, Brett Favre is very much enjoying retirement from the National Football League. He has his land. Has his hunting rifle. Has his tractor. Has his infomercials. Has his name forever enshrined at Lambeau Field.
He also still has some zip throwing the football. Boy howdy, does he ever.
Check out this clip making the social media rounds Wednesday of Favre, 47, working out with Falcons cornerback Robert Alford. Favre, very much looking fresh off the farm in khakis and a brown t-shirt, whips the football with finger-breaking ease just as the 'ol gunslinger did during his 20-year Hall of Fame career.
Hey, Cleveland, you see this? Kidding. Kind of.
