I know Packers fans are invested in the team - even more so than the rest of the country.
I interned at the NFL Network while I was in college, but I have not had an internship or another job other than football in a very long time.
I'm in lockdown mode as far as what I want to accomplish. I don't let anything else get in my way.
During the season... fun, to me, is getting sacks, making tackles and winning games. It's not spending money, girls, or, you know, this and that.
Quite honestly, I live in California in the off season. Going off to Green Bay is just like two different walks of life - I hunt, fish, practice with firearms. Back in California, it's spend time at the beach, go to the movies.
I decided to grow my hair out during college, and it's kind of stuck ever since. Even when I thought about cutting it or trimming it, common sense kicks in, and I don't think the fans would recognize me; people wouldn't know who I am. It would almost be like Santa Claus losing his powers.
I don't think there's a position I couldn't play on this field.
For the longest time, it's always been Aaron Rodgers and the offense. It's nice to have a little notoriety on defense.
You obviously want to start the season out with a big game and to follow it up by continuing to get better.
