Aaron Rodgers surprises Miss America at Bucks game

Posted March 07, 2012 on AP on Fox
PLAYERS: Aaron Rodgers
TEAMS: Green Bay Packers
Rodgers
Miss America finally got her chance to meet one of the NFL's most talented quarterbacks. When former Miss Wisconsin Laura Kaeppeler was introduced during the nationally-televised Miss America pageant in January, she gave a shout out to the Green Bay Packers and quarterback Aaron Rodgers. After she won the crown and attended the Super Bowl in Indianapolis, fans and reporters kept asking whether she had a chance to meet Rodgers. Kaeppeler said she hadn't, and didn't expect to. The 24-year-old Miss America sang the national anthem at Monday's Bucks game in Milwaukee. And who happened to be there? Rodgers surprised Kaeppler during halftime in a guest suite at the Bradley Center. The Kenosha News says (http://bit.ly/wwJZ3k) the 28-year-old Rodgers tweeted that he was excited to meet Kaeppeler.

Matt Flynn: magic or myth?

Via 60 Max Power O  |  March 08, 2012
Lighting in a bottle, that’s what NFL teams do during free agency. What a player does in one system doesn’t instantly make them great in another. The hottest quarterback prospect this year outside of Peyton Manning is Matt Flynn from the Green Bay Packers, and teams are betting that he’s more magic than myth. Matt Flynn is this year’s version of Kevin Kolb, a quarterback...

Green Bay Packers draft: mocking the first couple picks

The Green Bay Packers led the NFL in passing yards allowed last season. Therefore, they’re going to focus on DBs and and pass-rushers first and foremost in the 2012 NFL draft right? Not so fast my friend. What about a tight end if Jermichael Finley leaves? What about the running back situation? Then we must consider the fact that Ted Thompson is as much a “value GM” as there...
