Brett Favre will be back in town this weekend to have his name unveiled with the other Green Bay Packers Hall of Famers inside Lambeau Field. And what better time for a great story about Favre’s relationship with Aaron Rodgers?
Favre and Rodgers appear to have a pretty good relationship these days, but clearly that wasn’t always the case. Favre was notoriously chilly to Rodgers after the Packers drafted him in 2005.
In fact, we’ve now heard that Favre — and apparently the rest of the locker room — made Rodgers the butt of their jokes that season. And not really in a good-natured way, it appears…

Unfortunately, we can’t really say we’re surprised by such behavior from Favre.
