Aaron Rodgers
The Packers' quarterback and Cal alum wasn't happy with his team's performance. No, not in that 37-20 season-ending loss to the Giants - in the 59-41 Pro Bowl loss. On his radio show Tuesday on ESPN Milwaukee, Rodgers called out his NFC teammates for...

LeSean McCoy had a heck of a season in 2011, rushing for 1,309 yards and 17 touchdowns. It netted him the FedEx Ground Player of the Year on Wednesday at the Super Bowl. And it also landed him a trip to Hawaii for the Pro Bowl. While there, McCoy was on the NFC team that Aaron Rodgers believes should be "embarrassed" by a lack of effort.
