Brett Favre never lacked for confidence when he played. But now that he’s a Hall of Famer, he’s not quite sure he belongs.

“I get that I’m about to be a member of this exclusive club, but it hasn’t sunk in,” Favre said during his press conference Friday.

For all the well-wishes, and walking the aisle at the Gold Jacket Dinner last night, the former Packers quarterback said it was a note he got recently from a fellow member of the Hall which took him aback.

Favre said former Cowboys quarterback Roger Staubach emailed, sending his regrets for not being able to attend this weekend. And because he grew up a Cowboys fans, the idea that one of his heroes was now in his inbox shook him.

“I had to pick my jaw off the floor,” Favre said of the message.

But for a guy who always played with tremendous confidence, reflecting on his current status was hard for him.

“I don’t know if I’ll ever feel like an equal to these guys,” Favre said.

Of course, the three straight Most Valuable Player awards and all his passing records say differently.
