The Green Bay Packers were all but dead a month ago but their January 1st thumping of division leading Minnesota injected new life into Packerland. If Green Bay can beat the Detroit Lions in the final regular season game, an uncharacteristic 9-8 record will earn the Packers a playoff berth. If the Packers lose to Detroit, I don't expect that we'll see Aaron Rodgers play another NFL game. Here are his postgame comments. The most telling are his final thoughts. This boy is all about head trips and spiritual influences in his real life.

What’s this? An actual funny sketch from Saturday Night Live! 😲
The November 6, 2021 edition of Saturday Night Live had a wonderfully relatable sketch that did not take a political stance or insult middle Americans. They punched Spectrum Cable in the face with a wickedly funny sendup of the difficulty of trying to cancel cable. Enjoy. 📞🙄 BONUS SKETCH Here's the cold open for SNL that features a vaccine-resistant Aaron Rodgers and a brand new character playing Donald Trump. In previous years, Trump was played by actor Alec Baldwin, who is now spiraling in dismay after shooting and killing a co-worker on the set of his film RUST. A prop gun handed to Baldwin contained at least one live round, killing cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
Green Bay Packers quarterback still acting as though he’s won 6 rings instead of one 🤔
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers appeared on late night Sportscenter with his longtime friend Kenny Mayne. It was mostly a chance for Rodgers to celebrate Mayne's quirky legacy on his final ESPN broadcast. The NFL MVP gushed over Mayne's clever swerves from traditional sports broadcasting to add a dimension of snark and cynicism to ESPN's signature show. Rodgers fielded tough questions about his sartorial choices at the Kentucky Derby and his upcoming wedding. Oh, and that little matter about whether Aaron Rodgers will show up for work in Green Bay finally popped up at 7:23 into the interview. Aaron is keeping it coy but it sounds as though he wants to play elsewhere. The problems for Rodgers are (1) he has a
Thank you, Jordan Love and Loveless Danica – Aaron Rodgers is fully engaged with football
Green Bay Packers fans were stunned when the team used its first round 2020 NFL draft pick on Utah State quarterback Jordan Love. Wait...what? The team with Aaron Rodgers, the greatest quarterback in Green Bay's glorious history, opts not to draft an excellent receiver to complement its superstar leader? Yeppers. Packers management decided to prepare for the eventual exit of 37-year-old Rodgers, mindful of age, money, and forward momentum. So Jordan Love is now on the sideline witnessing Rodgers in perhaps his greatest season ever. On Sunday Night Football last night, Rodgers was touted by announcers Al Michaels and Chris Collinsworth as the leading MVP candidate again. So what's up with Aaron? Seeing the Packers use their primary draft pick for a young quarterback

America’s team wins again, rolled by the Double A Train
The Dallas Cowboys were once known as America's team but their 1990s success has settled into consistently average performances. TV ratings get a bump whenever the Cowboys or Packers are featured, and both teams have great support on road games. So what happened this season when the two powerhouse franchises met? You already know that the Cowboys just lost again to the Green Bay Packers, the REAL America's team. Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers' record is 7-2 versus the Dallas Cowboys, including multiple wins in Dallas. Add in another Aaron (Jones) and the Cowboys are helpless against the Double A Train. Early season fears that Rodgers was not seeing eye-to-eye with first year Packers coach Matt LaFleur have been put to rest. Rodgers clearly
ESPYs Greatest of all Time performance
Chance the Rapper gave a beautiful performance in honoring Muhammad Ali at the ESPY awards. That was terrific. But the greatest of all time component of this post involves the Green Bay Packers tandem of Rodgers-to-Rodgers. Aaron and Richard, both Rodgers, won the ESPY for Play of the Year for their incredible Hail Mary pass and catch after the play clock expired The Packers stunned the Detroit Lions. Sweet.
The Pain Train – 68 teams enter the arena and 67 leave hurting
As magnificent as the 2014-15 Kentucky Wildcats looked on paper, "The Unbeatables" were beaten by the Wisconsin Badgers. Kentucky fans are in deep despair as are Kentucky retailers and UK's bottom line. But Wisconsin has fans, too. Despite Kentuckians' claims that host city Indianapolis will suffer from the evacuation of the Big Blue Mist, fans of Wisconsin and Duke have disposable income to spread around. Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers tweeted a few zingers toward teammate and former Wildcat Randall Cobb just before tipoff and early into the game. After the victory, Rodgers tweeted a simple #OnWisconsin. Gametime. #OnWisconsin Long day for @rcobb18 hopefully.— Aaron Rodgers (@AaronRodgers12) April 5, 2015 .@rcobb18 nervous bro? Good start for the red team.— Aaron Rodgers
