data-mm-id=”_g6g1qrep7″>Nobody knows what goes on in the mind of Aaron Rodgers, but it would be easy to understand if he still wasn't over the Green Bay Packers selecting Jordan Love in the 2020 NFL Draft. The Packers are still a very good team with Rodgers at the helm, and picking up a quarterback in the first round (and one who needs years of development at that) does not serve the goal of winning a Super Bowl while Rodgers is still in a Packers uniform. The Get Up crew discussed this very matter on Wednesday morning, and Adam Schefter declared the selection was a big ol' slap in the face to Green Bay's franchise quarterback. Not a regular slap in the face, mind you, but the rare triple slap. He has a point. Not only did the Packers not draft a player who could help th…

data-mm-id=”_4qfuhpjuq”>After photos emerged of Dwayne Haskins partying in a strip club without a mask on earlier this week, Washington considered releasing him, according to Peter Schrager. Now, just six days later, Haskins is starting at quarterback as Washington continues to fight for its playoff life. Funny how quickly things change isn't it? The Washington Football team reportedly considered releasing Haskins after his partying pictures surfaced. @PSchrags with the latest on that and more: pic.twitter.com/oJOXu3uvmN— FOX Sports: NFL (@NFLonFOX) December 27, 2020Washington starting quarterback Alex Smith is still battling a calf injury, which will keep him out of his second straight game.

While discussing the Golden State Warriors, Perkins casually mentioned that "from reports I'm hearing that Jonathan Kuminga is now seven-two." This is, of course, not true.Kendrick Perkins fell for the viral Twitter joke that 6'7" Jonathan Kuminga has sprouted to 7'2". 💀 pic.twitter.com/frW5W9gLTx— Awful Announcing (@awfulannouncing) June 21, 2023Kuminga, still listed at 6-foot-7, averaged 9.9 points and 3.4 rebounds in 20-minutes per game last season. At just 20-years old, it's possible he might grow some more, but another seven inches since we last saw him in the playoffs five weeks ago? Where did that come from? Twitter, of…

data-mm-id=”_0au7e8c6l”>The Kansas City Chiefs have suffered a number of injuries against the Green Bay Packers Sunday night, but safety Bryan Cook got the worst of it. While attempting to make a tackle on Packers running back A.J. Dillon, Cook's left ankle appeared to get caught in the grass. The cart came out immediately.

data-mm-id=”_hsyn7othz”>The Chicago Bears' attention has been turned to the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft for over a month now and reports are beginning to suggest the franchise has made their decision– to trade Justin Fields and pick a quarterback first overall. That quarterback will probably be Caleb Williams, although there's plenty of time for them to change their minds on that front. Which means Fields will be on the trade block, and teams are already calling. Per Albert Breer, from Monday: Such is the case with the Bears and Justin Fields—with the team having gotten a little insight into what his trade value may be. Chicago staffers got inquiries from other teams on Fields in Mobile. And while the Bears haven’t shopped Fields, those conversations did all…

A season after Perkins faced criticism for saying Nikola Jokic was again the MVP front-runner because he was white – a take so bad that they literally apologized for it on First Take the next day – he went on NBA Today and attempted to make a case for Domantas Sabonis as MVP.Kendrick Perkins says a case can be made for Domantas Sabonis for NBA MVP pic.twitter.com/xtJUnRtvVN— Awful Announcing (@awfulannouncing) February 28, 2024Now, to be fair, Sabonis is having a very good season, but even suggesting he should be part of the discuss flies in the face of the criteria under which Perkins says he votes for MVP, which is the best player with the best record. And you don't need to go far to find t…
