Green Bay versus the Washington Redskins

Is this my first Saturday post ever? WOW!

Well, I'm just writing to remind you all to tune in to tomorrow's noon game against the Washington Redskins! Once again, Fox will be bringing us the game live.

Though Green Bay Packers tickets would be nice, my budget doesn't really allow airfare and hotel stays during the season. Oh well! My friends and I are going out to a Wisconsin sports bar to watch the game and be joined in our cheers by other Green Bay Packers fans.

Gooooooo team!

P.S. When will the name "Redskins" ever be changed? Seriously.

Aaron Rodgers as Ryan from The Office

The Office is my all-time favorite TV show. It is also the only show I can watch repeatedly without getting sick of the episodes. In a TV show, my friends, this is a sign of true comic talent!

Every time I watch the show lately, though, I can't help but notice the uncanny resemblance between our Green Bay Packers quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, and B.J. Novak, the actor who plays Ryan the temp.

What think you?

Twins? Brothers? Cousins?

If B.J. Novak ever gets too ill to film an episode, I think we could have Aaron Rodgers fill in. I wonder if the same offer would hold if Rodgers are injured. I'd love to see the Temp attempt to qb the Green Bay Packers!

Ryan Grant the Eastcoaster

Ryan Grant was born in Nyack, New York and grew up in New Jersey. Today we all know New Jersey as "The State Which an MTV Show has Forever Tarnished" courtesy of this crew:

But back when Jersey Shore was nonexistent (can you remember those glorious days?), Ryan Grant was actually the face of Jersey! USA Today honored him as the 2000 Jersey Player of the Year: a huge honor for this talented three sport athlete who competed in football, basketball, and track. Here he is as a serious-looking youngster.


Ryan Grant still lives in New Jersey during the off-season. He lives in Edgewater, a borough of roughly 9,500. Wonder what he thinks of Snooki?

Green Bay versus the Detroit Lions

On Sunday, the Green Bay Packers take on the Detroit Lions. This should be an easy win for us and I won't complain!

The game will be broadcast on Fox at noon so make sure to tune in and cheer on the Green Bay Packers to victory!

Al Harris' Vanity

No, I'm not talking about Al Harris as an egomaniac or narcissist. Though he probably isn't suffering from low self-esteem, Al Harris' Vanity refers to his very own barbershop and salon!

Vanity was opened in 2006 with the help of Al Harris, his brother, and fellow NFL-er Zack Crockett. The salon is located in Pompano Beach, Florida, just 12 miles from Al Harris' residence of Coral Springs.

I wonder if Al Harris ever makes a guest barber appearance at the salon? Would you let "3irty 1" give you a haircut or goatee trim?

Game Day TODAY!

Getting through a Monday at work can be difficult in the off-season. Nothing to look forward to, apart from some stray nights where The Bachelor/Bachelorette might be on. Yawn.

But Mondays in the fall take on a whole new energy!

Tonight is our first Monday night Green Bay game of the season. The Packers take on the Chicago Bears at Chicago at 7:30 p.m. ESPN will be covering the game.

Ahhhhh, Mondays in fall. I heart you.
