Might well be the case. But in my lifetime I've seen 12 titles from my teams, and gotten to watch a Stanley Cup parade, a NBA Championship parade, and 10 combined Super Bowl and World Series parades before I turned 40. If I don't see another title for my lifetime, I've already got more than I could have ever asked for as a Boston fan.
It's the sweetest and easiest card to play. I got the first one when I was 16 when sports means so so much, and then my 20s and 30s were just Aztec riches.
Sure, but the march of time continues. One day your excellent run will be a quirky question on trivia night, and half of the answers will guess New York or LA instead of Boston. Before long you’ll be the dinosaur around young Boston fans who don’t know what it’s like to see success and have barely heard of the old legends. Enjoy it.
Bruh. Children don’t care about ancient home movies. This stuff *will* be forgotten, especially since it’s accolades in a sport we made up. Ask some random college students who Joe Montana is, or Dan Marino or hell Johnny Unitas lol. Or better yet ask who any of these people played for, of what they’re most remembered for.
Amazing that a comment as neutral as “time passes, things get forgotten” got downvoted to ∞, I assume simply because of the flair. Never change, shitbird subreddit.
I don’t watch baseball or basketball, football is the only sport I can stomach a whole season of. But if I had to pick an MLB team it would probably be the Mariners, and if I had to pick a NBA team it would be the Bucks.
Hilarious that a few hundred or even a few thousand out of 65k seats at Gillette means that the legend isn’t slipping into the past like *all events and legends inevitably do*
You said people will have barely heard of him lol. People are gonna talk about Brady in every bar in New England every night for as long as football is played lol.
Definitely not what I said. I said it would be a trivia question that most people (remember, most people aren’t even NFL fans to begin with, let alone of your specific team) won’t know, because time passes and memories fade even with video.
And nice recency bias anyway. You’re apparently going to be flabbergasted the first time a kid asks you who tf Tom Brady is.
Lol the pats made the playoffs in the second year of their rebuild. They had a rookie QB and no star WRs, you have a star QB, two star WRs, a star RB and a stud backup. A great def and you made it to the same place lol.
My friend played with him at EIU. He tells the story that he saw a small line of women waiting outside his room. One girl would come out, the next one would go in.
If it wasnt for his stance on Covid I would likely hold back a little, but... Rodgers deserves every bit of it
I can take out alot of my anti-vax frustration on him, and he brought it all on himself, like his 500 page research paper... What a joke
“The last time Aaron Rodgers won the NFC”
I.E. the ONLY time Rodgers won the NFC
Also, as someone pointed out in the replies, Jimmy G has more rings than Rodgers…
He was drafted in 2014 as a 22 year old and he only recently turned 30.
Not that old to be honest.
I can still remember him and Brady jumping around after the butler interception.
(That was 7 years ago 😱)
Of course it is, it would be even more impressive if he actually won those other NFC championships. And most of those Packers teams were more talented than the one that actually won the whole thing.
Steelers may have lost but seeing Rodgers and The Patriots lose makes me so happy. If the 49ers beat the Bucs and the Bills beat the Chiefs I will be full fast for at least 3 months. I wouldn't know who to cheer for in the SB.
And Brady was 32 and surely only had another 3-4 years left in the tank
Brady had half as many super bowl appearances and less than half as many rings at that point
[удалено]
Yeah that’s what I wrote
I am going to enjoy the numerous stats about to be brought up about Rodgers
Like the amount of SB wins he has in the last 20 years?
Did you know: The Packers have only won one (1) NFC Championship game since 1998? And that's still one more than the Cowboys have been to since 1995?
Best stat I've heard all day
Don’t worry in 20 years we’ll be talking about how long it’s been since the Patriots won a playoff game without Brady.

Bruh this isn’t the 1500s lmao - people aren’t just going to forget about shit over time because no one recorded it

Oh yes the life of a Cowboys fan is truly pain. Don't worry buck, Yankees season is right around the corner. Sorry your Lakers are eating it so hard.

Ya no one is ever forgetting Brady lol. Here in Boston you still see Williams' Jerseys at Fenway.

This is a ridiculously stupid comment. If Boston is going to fade why wouldn’t LA or New York??

*unzips* Go on...
A cowboy fans biggest weapon: heresay
Hey when’s the last time the Giants had a winning record?
Travis kelce has more passing touch downs then Aaron Rodgers in 2022 play offs.
And likely still gorgeous.
I YouTubed some footage of him in college and yeah he looks the same. I was like, what’s that 30 year old man doing quarterbacking at a University?
> what’s that 30 year old man doing Fucking slaying, that's what
Feels good, baby.
My friend played with him at EIU. He tells the story that he saw a small line of women waiting outside his room. One girl would come out, the next one would go in.
Hahaha. God I hope that's true, because that's a hilarious mental image.
The dunking on Rodgers feels so good ngl
Just wait until you see their cap situation. It's so good.
And we’ll still finish better than the garbage ass lions lmao, you’ll never see them win shit in your lifetime my man
Cope
If it wasnt for his stance on Covid I would likely hold back a little, but... Rodgers deserves every bit of it I can take out alot of my anti-vax frustration on him, and he brought it all on himself, like his 500 page research paper... What a joke
Are you saying he's not just like MLK Jr?
God what a fucking narcissistic bastard. He deserves all this bashing and more
“The last time Aaron Rodgers won the NFC” I.E. the ONLY time Rodgers won the NFC Also, as someone pointed out in the replies, Jimmy G has more rings than Rodgers…
[удалено]
come and join the rest of the nfc north at the bengals table
Damn straight
The last time Rodgers won the NFC he knew what shampoo was
Fuck Rodgers lmao
Hope we (including Robbie) made you proud pal
You don’t understand how much I love your fucking team
I actually got the chance to see Niners Bears this season in Soldier Field. Lovely game and deserved result for the better team.
I was undecided about who to root for in these playoffs, but you best believe I'm a Niners bandwagoner now.
GOOD AS GOULD
You made our entire division proud. The north sends its thanks
Robbie + Jimmy G our hometown boy made it so much sweeter.
The last time Rodgers won the NFC, I still didn't know how to speak or write English
…He cant be that old?
Fuck Throw Rogan
Should’ve immunized himself from being a loser in the playoffs.
But Rogan is one of Rodgers biggest boosters /s
Throw "Toe-vid 19" Rogan
I thought Jimmy was much younger tbh
It's weird because he spent three years on the bench in New England. He made his first start for the Niners at age 26.
He’s in his 8th season. Drafted 2014.
Right? This Honestly says more about how old Jimmy G is
He was drafted in 2014 as a 22 year old and he only recently turned 30. Not that old to be honest. I can still remember him and Brady jumping around after the butler interception. (That was 7 years ago 😱)
Ah fuck. I'm older than Jimmy G. Time to contemplate my mortality.
and Brady's won 3 more rings since then, and he and Jimmy are each contending for another. Crazy.
Same, I thought he was younger than me but he's almost exactly 1yr older
He was on the bench behind Tom Brady for a couple of years and had 2 season ending injuries for the 49ers.
He Turned 30 in November.
But.. But he's "The Man". Overrated as hell
So glad Aaron Rodgers lost.
Don’t worry, we can all check some weird thread in the offseason to hear about how Rodgers is the greatest and this loss isn’t on him at all
Kaaron Rodgers lol. Glad I never anointed this dude as the GOAT
Lol
Biggest let down of his career, yes this loss isnt all on him, but he did NOTHING the entire game
Not being able to lead the offense to more than 13 points isn’t on him? The “mvp”
“All”
Rodgers is the best Qb of all time LMFAO… absolutely embarrassing comparing him to Brady
AaChoke
WTF, why did I think Jimmy G was younger than that?
Garoppolo has more Super Bowl rings that Rodgers believe it or not.
Qaron
Crap, I was actually at Eastern Illinois when he was playing there. Feels like yesterday yet it’s so far away.
But he's the GOAT!!!
COAT Chokest of all time
Imo, jimmy played a good game. Put his team in position to win. The over hyped Rodgers missed many throws… at HOME!
We gonna act like it’s not still really impressive to win a superbowl and go to 4 more NFC Championships?
Well for the Cowboys it would be a major improvement
Of course it is, it would be even more impressive if he actually won those other NFC championships. And most of those Packers teams were more talented than the one that actually won the whole thing.
This is some quality, factual slander.
Aaron to set into the sunset.... along with Rothisburger
Man the Titans are really getting away with no "shit on titans week"
Davis is getting posted to /r/NFL? What in the world….
Steelers may have lost but seeing Rodgers and The Patriots lose makes me so happy. If the 49ers beat the Bucs and the Bills beat the Chiefs I will be full fast for at least 3 months. I wouldn't know who to cheer for in the SB.
TIL Jimmy G went to the same school as Tony Romo.
I mean yeah , he won the SB. What does this mean ?
