CUTLER/ RODGERS



WHEN IT COMES TO GREEN BAY FOOTBALL, SINCE THE END OF THE FAVRE ERA, IT'S HARD TO FIRE UP FOR THE GREEN & GOLD. LAST YEAR I WAS HOPING THAT BOTH THE PACKERS WITH RODGERS AND THE NEW YORK JETS WITH FAVRE WOULD DO GREAT. WHEN BOTH TEAMS FELL APART DOWN THE STRETCH IT WAS VERY DISAPPOINTING.

NOW WITH FAVRE RETIRED FROM FOOTBALL I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE REALLY HARD TO GET INTO IT THIS FALL, UNTIL LAST WEEK WHEN THE CHICAGO BEARS WENT "ALL IN" AND HIRED THE DENVER QUARTBACK CUTLER.

HOLY SHIT !! WHAT AN EXCITING YEAR THIS IS GOING TO BE WITH TWO YOUNG GUNSLINGERS RODGERS /CUTLER. THE RIVALRY BETWEEN THE PACKERS AND THE BEARS IS AS OLD AS FOOTBALL ITSELF.

THE EXCITMENT BEGINS ON SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 13 IN THE OPENING GAME, BEARS VS THE PACKERS AT LAMBEAU FIELD.

GONE ARE THE SHADOWS OF FAVRE AND ELWAY, AND OUT COME THE STARS OF TODAY, CUTLER/RODGERS.

GO PACK !!!



Rodgers and Cutler can relate to one another on an almost innate level, and each passer likely will be cheering for his NFC North counterpart on the inside.

One night last July at Harrah’s Lake Tahoe casino in Stateline, Nev., Rodgers and Cutler, each of whom was competing in the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship, sat together at a blackjack table for well over an hour. At one point, each man split a pair of identical cards, resulting in several large stacks of chips that nearly collapsed onto one another.

Before taking their respective hits from the dealer, Rodgers and Cutler looked at each other and grinned. Like their current employers, they were all in – and totally at peace with it, consequences be damned.
