Rodgers recalls Favre pranks, Starr mentorship

GREEN BAY, Wis. - Aaron Rodgers is looking forward to seeing Brett Favre again, but the Green Bay Packers quarterback better keep his helmet in a secure location with his predecessor back in the building.

In advance of Favre's return to Lambeau Field to have his retired No. 4 unveiled on the north end zone façade during Thursday's game against the Chicago Bears, Rodgers recalled Tuesday how Favre, who might have been an even better prankster than he was a quarterback, got Rodgers good during his time as Favre's understudy, from 2005 through 2007.
