Michael Rand started RandBall with hopes that he could keep lies from conquering the minds of the weak. So far, he's only succeeded in using the word "redacted" a lot. He welcomes suggestions, news tips, links of pure genius, and pictures of pets in Halloween costumes here, though he already knows he will regret that last part.

We shall, from this point forward, call Aaron Rodgers "The Temp"
Posted by: Michael Rand under Professional football Updated: November 11, 2009 - 3:07 PM
From this point forward, we shall refer to Packers QB Aaron Rodgers as "The Temp."
Fact:
1) Aaron Rodgers bears a striking resmeblance to B.J. Novak, aka Ryan from "The Office." Seriously, just put a helmet on Novak. It's unnerving.
2) Ryan's starting role on that show was as "The Temp."
3) If Aaron Rodgers continues to be sacked at his current pace, he will become so gunshy and/or injured that his status as a starter in the NFL will be temporary. Hence, The Temp.
Any questions?
