Each year is a new year guys.  And as you all said it's a "WIN NOW" league.Aaron Rodgers this year is not Aaron Rodgers of the Dallas game or before.This is the Aaron Rodgers that I see, that Ted. Thompson sees and that Mike McCarthy has seen.  This is also the Rodgers that Brett has NOT seen yet.It's not good ole "I'll wait behind you forever and I'm your fan" Aaron anymore.The young lion is staking his claim..and I welcome the old "champion" come try and come back and take it.Make it an OPEN competition...Let's see where the chips fall...</blockquote>
