E:60 - Aaron Rodgers

[mission]

Has this ever been on before? This one? Anyone with me?

Wow, unbelievable stuff. Emotional.

[HarveyWallbangers]

What channel? Is it on again?

[Joemailman]

What are you referring to?

[mission]

What channel? Is it on again?

ESPN 2 or something. 209 on DirectTV... started late because of UW basketball OT. (I actually cried a bit...)

[mission]

cant type too much sorry its on now go look :)

"Hopefully we can close that book, put it on the shelf, and start writing a new chapter."

Should be online at some point. You guys have to see it, sorry I didn't post earlier. Early stuff, early childhood was good.

He had to shovel shit on a llama farm. No wonder he's awesome.

[Pugger]

Damn! I switched to the Packer/Loin replay on the NFL Network after the Badger basketball game :-( so I hope they show that again later tonight...

[Freak Out]

Llama shit? WTF? Did he fight the Spanish as well?

That online version is probably the original story that aired earlier this year. However, I read somewhere that they were adding additional footage into the version for rebroadcast this week. So mission might have gotten a slightly longer show.

[Bossman641]

I remember seeing it a while back, good stuff. I'll have to check it out again if there is really additional footage.

[Fosco33]

Saw it last night. Yeah - they added recent interviews/footage as they commented on 15-1 record.

He's been quite motivated by being passed over. Wonder how he'll stay on top - needs new motivation.

His band - the Make? - sounded pretty good.

I think Rodgers is always finding motivation..."Year Rodgers was good this year, but Brees..."....I really think he loves that stuff, and then wants to go out and say screw you. guy imitates his belt thing, he instantly has a great drive after that. He is just a very driven individual, and I think he wants to flip everyone off and win more games,a nd more rings, and more everything than everyone. and we get the benefit of it.

Kind of funny. There are very few Rodgers threads in the history of Rats. He's talked about a lot, but not many threads created about him.

Here's one of the better stats in Rodgers favor.


Rodgers is the only player in NFL history to rank among the Top 4 in completion percentage (second), average gain per attempt (fourth), touchdown percentage (third) and interception percentage (first). No other player can be found even among the Top 10 in all four categories.

Goddamn, Mission. I'm gonna put that on my signature line.

Injury is the only thing that is likely to derail AR from the HOF. He has a great young team around him. He has excellent coaching. He's been supremely durable. He works hard, keeps himself in great shape, continues to evolve with his game. The trajectory he's on is a high one.

[mission]

Can't believe I said I cried. It wasn't a weeping at all... maybe a little moist in the eye. :lol:

[pbmax]

If Vince Young still has 'IT', then you bet there will be a ARod the Living Legend thread. Just hope Aaron doesn't go to the Bears.
