I got the distinct impression he did not seek Favre's advice. LOL

Favre also made comments that he would NOT go to Rodgers to teach him, that Rodgers had to learn everything on his own...which seems to be in stark contrast to helping out guys like Hassellbeck, Pederson, Bono, and Nall.

Good, we don't want him learning how to throw interceptions.
