All We Wanted For Christmas Was One More Rodgers Game

We were all informed yesterday that Rodgers is upset he will not be playing this week against the Vikings. Here’s my three reasons why he’s so disappointed.

1) I believe those 3 interceptions he threw against Carolina are driving him crazy! Two of them were likely TDs. If his arm strength was 100% (which it is not), he never underthrows those passes. In a game with poor secondary play, the Packers still win if Rodgers connects.

2) Obviously he would love to make it tougher on the Queens getting a #1 or #2 seed and bye. If they make a run in the playoffs, he knows in his mind he beat them this year, especially since they’re red-hot! He’s a competitor, that’s what competitors do. Losing the chance to beat them at Lambeau and exact revenge on the team that sidelined him for eight weeks is eating away at Twelve.

3) My final reason is simple: It’s the last home game for all the fans that haven’t watched him play for over two months. There is nothing he loves more than playing in Green Bay in front of his hometown fans. Who wouldn’t?! I’m sure there is nothing he would love more than to give all the DHPFs a victory over the division rival Queens. That sounds like a perfect Christmas present, doesn’t it? Remember, Aaron is a giver by nature and now he can’t give.
 

Sorry, one final note….  For those that think or believe Aaron will eventually test the market or opt out of his contract, I say NO WAY! The dude has it made in GB!

The Packers are going to eventually pay him a boatload of money to keep him around for another 4-5 years. He’s going to end his career on the gridiron of Lambeau Field.  Aaron Rodgers leaving Green Bay would be the equivalent of LeBron James leaving Cleveland to end his career with the Memphis Grizzlies. Why would he? I’ll even take it a step further, Aaron is no dummy. The organization is worth somewhere around a $1.5 billion. It wouldn’t surprise me in the least to see him running the whole entire corporation one day.  Matter of fact, that might be part of his next contract.

Hey….they tried to keep Favre around when he changed his mind from retiring to wanting to play again. Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong but I believe the offer(to remain retired)was approximately 20 million for 10 years.  All they wanted him to do was shine around the organization.  Evidently, at that time he was such a commodity, GBP Inc. didn’t want to lose him entirely. Do you remember that?
