Brett Favre will be remembered as one of the best quarterbacks to play in the NFL, and as he enters the Pro Football Hall of Fame next month, there will be countless stories recalled of his toughness and greatness and fearlessness.

But for many fans, the memory of Favre that will last the longest is simply how much fun he seemed to have playing football.

This is the Favre we'll remember most.

On a conference call Tuesday, Favre made the same point and was then asked about his favorite prank he liked to play on his Green Bay Packers teammates.

Favre took the business of football as seriously as anyone -- you probably couldn't become a Hall of Famer if you didn't -- but he realized the pressures of the NFL could eat a man up if he didn't have fun, and he realized that he was, you know, making millions playing football for a living.
