For someone so apparently concerned for his privacy, he certainly has a knack for generating an awful lot of attention, content, and hate clicks for the NFL and sports media generally. Not all of that is his doing, of course, but it seems silly to think he doesn’t enjoy it on some level. But today, it is definitely one heck of a double-edged sword. That said, he is a real person with a very real (and potentially serious) illness. I’m trying to keep that at the forefront of my mind as I think about this. Obviously then, my hopes are ranked in this order of sequence and importance: 1) Speedy recovery for Rodgers with no complications 2) Continued health of everyone around him 3) Love plays and kills it on Sunday 4) Rodgers returns and leads team to Super Bowl title 5) Team flips Rodgers for fair haul (not sure even a 1st round value will be had, but we’ll see who is desperate this off-season, hopefully) It is time to quit the ride. The games being played by both sides now are becoming stupid, and the prizes being won are quickly catching up.
