Favre's Nephew Leads St. Stanislaus to Mississippi 4A Title

Yes, Dylan Favre, Brett's nephew, had a monster game today in his last game as a high school quarterback, as he led St. Stanislaus to the Mississippi State 4A Football championship.  The Rockachaws defeated the LaFayette County Commodores by a score of 35-16.

Favre played a role in all five St. Stanislaus touchdowns this afternoon, three through the air and two more on the ground.  His five touchdown performance gave him an unbelievable 81 touchdowns on the season. . .yes, eighty-one. . .which, according to the Mississippi Sun Herald, is a new national record.  (I'm still attempting to find some way to verify this.)

As a resident of the Mississippi Gulf Coast, I've had the opportunity to see St. Stanislaus in action a couple of times, and Favre the Younger is an outstanding high school quarterback.  I'm not sure how well he's going to translate to college. . .he's 5'10", 170, which isn't real big by anyone's football standards. . .but he'll certainly get an opportunity somewhere.

Congratulations to Dylan and the Rockachaws on winning the state championship.  Now, here's hoping that Uncle Brett can deliver a slightly larger football trophy a bit farther north.

Congrats Dylan

Is it to late to have a growth spurt?

I see him listed as 5' 11", 195 on some sites,

and I grew 3 inches after I turned 18. He would be ok at 6’1 or so.

The height never bothered me

I’ve alluded to Doug Flutie on here a few times. Yeah, he was a small guy, but dang, could he put up some numbers. I think he would have done great and been one of the greatest in the NFL if teams had given him a true try. He did well as the starter in Buffalo and they haven’t had squat in the QB department since. So whether 5’ 10", 11" or taller, don’t care, what are the skills, thats what makes the QB

Congrats...

But man…

That’s some strong Favre-aid you’re drinking. :- b

As thankful as I am for what you did to smudgers,

I don’t get the Favre-aid comment. I believe it’s what’s known as a human interest story with Viking relevance.

The connection is pretty tenuous IMO.

But I just don’t believe it warrants close attention. Just my opinion is all.

Shoot,(PC)

I’m still using “Elements 5” smudgers is probably using CS 3 or 4. And I could not have come up with a better Avatar for him. That is all on you. 100%

robert,

what did you do to smudgers? i missed something…..

I piss people off on a fairly regular basis. I cherish my right to speak my mind, whether I sound like an uneducated savage or not. I've never been accused of keeping what I think a secret, nor will I ever. Don't like it? I don't care.

by IABerserker1 on Dec 6, 2009 10:22 AM CST up reply actions  

He won a bet on the Vikings, Bears game.

smudgers has a “nice purple avatar” until the Vike’s play the Bears again.

I am using the cs3 suite,

However, the stuff you’re doing with elements is phenomenal! The gonzo/white house pic… very nicely done!

So, wonder what draft day in 3 years, or possibly 4 years will be like.

Congratulations, kid

I’m guessing he gets recruited by a lot of schools.

I live on the ms. gulfcoast

I’m very happy for dylan and he was offered a scholarship to Bretts Alma Mater so.ms. after the game

Good for him....

He may be a bit vertically challenged now for NFL, but as stated, has some time to grow more yet….and also as we have seen, sometimes you just have to be able to overcome adversity…

As with Dylan’s family member Brett….in Brett’s case it is not height that he must overcome, it is age at this point (I can certainly relate to THAT!)! Here we have two guys with the same name/family excelling….

I like both their attitudes while they perform: Never quit! That perspective will carry you far….and provide inspiration to many who otherwise may never have dared….

Hat’s off to them both!

I would rather be IN the Arena than watching from the stands...That is my life!

Eat your vegetables, Dylan

And stay away from fatty foods, sugary snacks, and junk food. Eat nutritious food, and grow a few more inches of height.

Even if he doesn’t make football his career, it’s just the right thing to do.
