OK I just want to stir an argument.
Favre never warmed up to Rodgers. Never *allegedly* helped nor was he apparently even nice to his succsessor.
Personally, I think Brett was one of two things: too smug to help a young guy in the future. OR actually threatened by Rodgers' talent. A friend and I talked about it last night and we came up with this: When Favre called Rodgers' "their quarterback" after the game it kind of took me by surprise. I am wondering if Brett, who is clearly somewhat ego driven, is actually threatened by Rodgers becoming the next Packer great at QB. Some have said he has moments reminding them of Bart Starr with the way he carries himself. He has a stronger arm at long range (not short, Brett will always have the biggest 25 yd cannon), makes better decisions, and statistically last season was more sound that Favre last year and his first few years in his career.
Just for fun, I think we should offer some thoughts about it. I actually think that he may almost subconsciously worry that someday if Rodgers plays with the talent he appears to have that he will supplant Favre as the "Packer QB", hopefully leading GB to the promise land - more than once.
