A little of this and a little of that

Prior to the start of the NFL season, Green Bay Packers QB-State Farm agent Aaron Rodgers would tell anyone who'd listen that he was "immunized", leading people to assume he had gotten the COVID-19 vaccine.

Days before the Packers are to play Kansas City and fellow State Farm shill Patrick Mahomes, Rodgers is out of Sunday's game after it got out that he lied about being immunized, and has contracted COVID, perhaps putting teammates at risk.

With Rodgers on the COVID list, the Packers brought in Blake Bortles to fill in, and likely back up 2nd year QB Jordan Love, who likely gets the start vs. Kansas City.

Proof that a fool and his brains are soon parted.
====================================
After getting picked up for DUI after an accident that killed another driver and her dog, Henry Ruggs III was cut by the AFC West leading Las Vegas Raiders, although QB Derek Carr is still supporting Ruggs.

Was the Raiders' decision too hasty? Maybe, but they're not taking any chances. Ruggs, a second year receiver, was key to their early success this season.
=====================================
Former AEW champion Jon Moxley (Jonathan Good) is stepping away from the ring to address some real life issues.

On Wednesday, it was announced that Moxley was withdrawing from the #1 contender's tournament for a title match vs. either current champion Kenny Omega or the current #1 contender, Adam Page, who will meet at Full Gear on November 13. Moxley has entered an inpatient alcohol treatment program, with the full support of the AEW roster and owner Tony Khan.

Our prayers are with Moxley during this time.
========================================
 Former WWE champion Mike "The Miz" Mizanin was eliminated from Dancing With The Stars on Monday, finishing 9th overall. Miz and partner Witney Carson looked like a winning combination during the tournament, but it seems more folks are interested in JoJo Siwa, who now is the prohibitive favorite to win the mirror ball, and Olivia Jade, daughter of scandal-scarred actress Lori Loughlin (ex-Full House, Summerland, When Calls The Heart).

Then again, Miz makes it four top 10 finishes for WWE talents on Dancing over the course of 15 years, though the highest placed finisher from the company, Stacy Keibler (3rd in the spring of '06), was technically no longer with the company by the time the competition ended.
==========================================
What if J. M. Barrie's classic hero, Peter Pan, lost his innocence as he grew up?

In 1991, Steven Spielberg attempted to answer that with "Hook", with Robin Williams as an adult Peter, now married and a businessman. 25 years later, we have the worst case scenario. One guess.

America's Oldest Baby, Donald J. Trump, the Elmer Fudd of former Presidents, is whining about Fox Shmooze airing attack ads from the Lincoln Project while, at the same time, their cast of primetime sycophants continues to support Citizen Pampers and his family of grifters. What Citizen Pampers doesn't understand, of course, is that Fox Shmooze is not his personal propaganda tool. It's a business itself, and needs to generate advertising revenue any way they can, like any other network.

Farron Cousins explains it all:


Trump's take:


"WAAAHHHH! They're mean to me! WAAAAHHHH!"

Until you build your own network, you have nothing to say about content on the channel. Deal with it.
