Eric Bolling with Brett Favre on his opioid addiction recovery

For our Holiday special, watch Eric Bolling sit down with Brett Favre as you’ve never seen before. They go in-depth about Favre’s opioid addiction and his recovery, relationship with his father, his football statistics, and more.

[@justinmathewson3692]

From his car accident, to opioids, to alcohol, it's actually a miracle Brett is alive... Seriously, his odds are up there with Kieth Richards, Ozzy, and Josh Gordon.

[@boogitybear2283]

What’s even more crazy is that he looks great in his 50s. He actually looks better in his 50s than his 20s!

You can be surrounded by your middle to high class family and friends, having Christmas dinner, one minute you’re at a crack house getting pills, then minutes later you’re with the family having dinner and the crazy part, at least one other person in that group is the same and y’all don’t even know it.

[@boogitybear2283]

1996 was a bittersweet year for him. He marries his long time girlfriend, goes to rehab, and wins a Super Bowl in New Orleans nearby his Hometown. That’s about as awesome as it gets. So happy he at least won a Super Bowl in the Superdome.

Just hear to spread the word. Brett Favre did steal millions of dollars in welfare money. He is going to jail

[@adamkemmerling2881]

Awesome video!

They need to show this in Schools.

[@danasmith5621]

I love how he said that rolling up to a street corner is any better or worse

[@RemoWilliams1227]

I did too, and I know it's exactly true. I've bought drugs from dope houses and pharmacies... Result was the same.

[@sanchovegas6664]

16 Vicodin at once!!! That’s just insane. Glad he beat that crap.

[@RemoWilliams1227]

Yeah thats bonkers, shows his income as well, shits are 10 or more apiece on the street.

[@jayr3635]

You'd be surprised. I know every day individuals taking 10x that amount every day for years. Millions of dollars worth! I'll tell u what is crazy and harmful about his story is the amount of acetaminophen he ingested! I'm referring to people taking straight oxycodone which they usually take way more mgs of opiates in a day, being how each individual pill is stronger, most common 30mgs, next being 15mgs. Where the highest vicodin ive ever heard of is 10mgs of actual opiates but also has acetaminophen in it. But to circle back, 160 mgs a day (what he was taking). That's child's play in the world of pill addiction. That's 10mgs more then 5- 30 mg oxycodones a day. And I know multiple people who have been 25+ oxy 30's a day.

I was in the same boat I don’t know why I had a set time between 5-7 pm 4 perc 30’s at a time I’m glad I finally got it back on track

[@waynelynch3862]

I'm one of the millions that have become addicted to opioids after a severe neck injury. (17 years taking Hydrocodone) Good interview, except there is no explanation on how to treat the pain after stopping the pain pills. As a lifelong Packer fan, #4 was my all time favorite player. I even rooted for the Jets & Vikings when Favre was with them. But then he supported lunatic trump and even played golf with him... plus he did this while clean/sober! I then lost my respect for him. That is when his 'Mississippi roots' came to light. I'm now rooting for Mahomes...a class act on the field and off.

[@jalsr.speak2379]

SAD!

[@Expo-]

Crazy you would let that get in the way of your fan hood. Maybe you are the problem... politics are politics and you shouldn’t hate someone based on that or their.. race. Familiar with that idea?

[@waynelynch3862]

@@Expo- You mean like the trump cult that hate anyone that takes a knee to protest racial inequality and police brutality? All because trump bashed anyone involved in the protest & HE turned it into something it was not....and the sheep followed in lockstep. Unlike trump/favre, I DO have a moral compass. How in God's name can people support a potus that tried to overthrow America???????
