[QUOTE="Hauschild, post: 252075, member: 1638"] All of this is really pure speculation and conjecture because we don't know Brett or Aaron other than how they portray themselves thru their play. From my viewpoint, I suppose Brett had "bigger fish to fry" when he was the Packers starting QB. Between practice and film study and pressers and all the other garbage, I don't see how Brett "mentoring" Rodgers on a continual basis does a whole lot of good for Brett or the Packers. And, considering Favre is not exactly the conventional type of NFL QB, it probably wouldn't have done a lot of good for Aaron. But, much of it has to do with human nature and an individual's personality. Some guys feel the need to nurture and some guys learn only thru personal experience. I suppose Brett falls into the latter category because that's how he learned, and would probably expect everybody to be like that. As one gets older, he realizes that no matter how much you attempt to "preach" to some people, they don't learn until they experience for themselves. For example, some people you can tell them not to drink and drive and they listen and never do it. Others, have to learn the hard way. I would also suspect that Brett understands the NFL from the business perspective and realizes that 1st round draft picks ALWAYS get a chance to show a return on investment at some point. Now, if you're tired of your job and don't care about being replaced, you'd probably go out of your way to aid your competition. However, we know now that Brett enjoys his job so it is understandable that he realized what GM's practice all the time, and didn't want to leave any sooner than he had to. I've also never read anything that stated that Brett blatantly ignored Rodgers or refused to answer questions when asked. He simply never went out of his way and I'm not sure anybody can justifiably blame him for that - especially considering how Rodgers has turned out. I think Aaron went about his business the right way. But, even though perception is supposed to be reality, often it is not because none of us knows each player and how they really co-existed.
