Success is knowing that you ’ ve done everything in your power from a preparation standpoint @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a performance standpoint to achieve a win or success , ” Rodgers explained during his chat with McAfee , according to Zach Kruse .
You can read his full comments in the tweet below .
Is this Aaron Rodgers talking about success or is it from “ Friday Night Lights ” and “ Remember the Titans ” ?
I honestly can ’ t tell because his comments give me the same kind of vibe and energy that I get from both movies .
While I hate the Green Bay Packers , I can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ pretty much every single word that Rodgers said when it comes to success .
You know what separates great people from people who are simply good ?
The former prepares at all times , is laser focused and can only think about the task at hand .
It ’ s not a mentality that many humans have , but those who do can often dominate .
Michael Jordan is a classic example of somebody who lived with that kind of mentality .
If you ’ ve left every drop of sweat and blood @ @ @ @ @ @ @ lose , you ’ ve done the best you could .
It doesn ’ t mean you ’ re always going to come home with a win .
It does mean that there ’ s not one thing you could have done differently .

I honestly can’t tell because his comments give me the same kind of vibe and energy that I get from both movies.
While I hate the Green Bay Packers, I can’t help but to agree with pretty much every single word that Rodgers said when it comes to success.
You know what separates great people from people who are simply good? The former prepares at all times, is laser focused and can only think about the task at hand.
It’s not a mentality that many humans have, but those who do can often dominate. Michael Jordan is a classic example of somebody who lived with that kind of mentality.
If this doesn’t motivate you to be great, I don’t know what will. “Winning has a price, leadership has a price… ‘The one thing about Michael Jordan was he never asked me to do something that he didn’t ****ing do.” pic.twitter.com/sEt4eE9nTz — Zeke Healy (@ZekeHealy) May 11, 2020
If you’ve left every drop of sweat and blood on the field, then win or lose, you’ve done the best you could. It doesn’t mean you’re always going to come home with a win. It does mean that there’s not one thing you could have done differently.
Props to Rodgers for keeping it real. You know he’s making a ton of sense when he has a Detroit Lions fan agreeing with him.


thedailycaller--2020-11-11--REPORT: Antonio Brown Accused Of Rape

REPORT: Antonio Brown Accused Of Rape

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown has reportedly been accused of raping a woman .
According to ProFootballTalk , Britney Taylor filed an affidavit alleging that the NFL player raped her back in 2018 .
The affidavit is part of an ongoing civil case brought by Taylor against Brown .
PFT also reported that the NFL could still punish Brown further if new evidence is discovered , which seems to be a possibility here .
He was previously suspended for the first eight weeks of the season for violations of the league ’ s personal conduct code .
( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ King In The North When It Comes To College Football ) Tom Pelissero reported Thursday that Brown denies “ all allegations ” in the case .
According to ProFootballTalk , Taylor stated the following in the affidavit about the alleged rape : He then forced me onto his bed and pushed my face into the mattress .
He pinned me down and physically overpowered me so that I could not get away or fight back .
I told him no and begged him to stop , but Brown lifted by dress and raped @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
I never consented to any intimate contact or sexual intercourse with Brown — he raped me .
Obviously , it ’ s incredibly important to note that this isn ’ t a criminal case against Brown , and he has every right in the world to be presumed innocent .
Having said that , this situation is a perfect example of why I thought bringing in Brown was a really bad idea for the Bucs .
Whether he wins the lawsuit or loses it , it ’ s a massive distraction .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the organization , and it creates bad headlines for the team .
Whether you think Brown is talented or not ( he certainly was in his prime ) , I find it hard to believe his talents outweigh the distractions that come with him .
We ’ ll see what happens with the civil case against Brown , but it ’ s clear that his problems are far from over when it comes to issues off of the field .

Sweden refused to close daycares and grade schools, and in May had a concert gathering of over 30,000 people, according to Science Mag. The vast majority of the country’s guidelines have been described as voluntary, McGill’s Office for Science and Society reported.
In the last 7 days, Sweden has had 23,735 new confirmed cases out of 162,240 total confirmed cases, according to the World Health Organization.
Authorities of 13 of Sweden’s 21 regions have issued recommendations that include urging citizens to avoid physical contact with people they don’t live with, according to Bloomberg. But the directions appeared to not have affected the spread of the virus, as the number of cases reached a record in the past week.
The new guidelines and adherence to them will determine whether Swedes can “celebrate Christmas as normal,” the prime minister said, Bloomberg reported.
The restrictions in Sweden follow those of other European countries combating a surge in coronavirus cases. Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced that the United Kingdom would be entering a full month of lockdown beginning Nov. 5 until Dec. 2 after coronavirus cases topped one million. Austria also announced a month-long partial shutdown with a curfew amid a “massive acceleration” in infections.
