from the Star-Telegram,
Mike Modano watched Brett Favre break down and weep at his retirement press conference last week and suddenly had this out-of-body experience.
He could see himself sitting there, tears running down his face, too.
“When it’s my time, I’ll probably bawl like a baby,” Modano said Monday on the eve of his induction into the Texas Sports Hall of Fame in Waco.
The irony is that the last time we saw Modano cry, he was standing in front of his locker in Buffalo in the early hours of June 20, 1999, sobbing almost uncontrollably as he tried to get his mind around the fact that he and the Stars had just won the Holy Grail of hockey, the Stanley Cup.
