The Packers shutout the Buffalo Bills on Sunday 22-0 and improved their record to 2-1-1 on the season. So everything seems to be going well in Green Bay, right? Not so fast. After the game, quarterback Aaron Rodgers wasn’t too happy with the offense and even went as far to say it was “terrible” during Sunday afternoon’s victory at Lambeau Field. But aside from being unhappy with the offense, regardless of it putting up 400 yards, the quarterback seemingly threw shade at head coach Mike McCarthy? Rodgers noted after the win that even though he believed many players played well, the game didn’t seem to have any “flow.”

Yankees’ Aaron Boone Fires Shots At Red Sox After Bench-Clearing Brawl
The rivalry between the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees ramped up a notch Wednesday night, when the benches cleared twice, including a brawl featuring Red Sox reliever Joe Kelly and Yankees designated hitter Tyler Austin. Austin was at the center of an incident in the second inning when he slid into second base with his cleats up and hit Red Sox shortstop Brock Holt, inciting a minor fracas. After Austin took a Kelly fastball to the ribs in the seventh inning, he slammed his bat to the ground and charged the mound, as the two players exchanged a number of punches in the skirmish. After the game, Yankees manager Aaron Boone had

Tom Brady Voices Support For Gordon Hayward, Aaron Rodgers After Injuries
Tom Brady knows what it’s like to suffer a devastating injury. The New England Patriots star quarterback tore his ACL and MCL on the 15th offensive snap of the 2008 season, but he came back better than ever. Brady believes Gordon Hayward and Aaron Rodgers will do the same. The Green Bay Packers quarterback suffered a broken collarbone Sunday when he was driven into the turf by Minnesota Vikings linebacker Anthony Barr. Rodgers underwent surgery and was placed on injured reserve Friday. Hayward, meanwhile, suffered a gruesome ankle injury during the Boston Celtics’ season-opening loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. The star forward disloca... NESN.com
Red Sox Notes: Andrew Benintendi’s Red-Hot August Has Him On Aaron Judge’s Tail
The American League Rookie of the Year Award seemed to be locked up at the Major League Baseball All-Star break, as New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge had set the sport ablaze during a blistering first half. But Judge has been frozen for the entire second half, while another rookie has been so hot not even the Night King himself could cool him off. Boston Red Sox outfielder Andrew Benintendi went through a prolonged slump toward the end of the first half, but the young star has broken out of his skid in a big way in August. The 23-year-old is hitting .375 with six home runs and 16 RBIs while recording a
Red Sox Have Perfect Tweet After Jackie Bradley Jr. Robs Aaron Judge Of Homer
New York Yankees slugger Aaron Judge thought he had hit his 31st home run of the season during the eighth inning of Sunday’s game against the Boston Red Sox. Jackie Bradley Jr. had other plans. After Judge laced a deep fly ball ticketed for the deepest part of Fenway Park, Bradley leaped over the wall and made a stellar catch to preserve the Red Sox’s shutout in their 3-0 win over the Yankees. And given the intense rivalry between the two ballclubs, it comes as no surprise that the Sox took a jab at their American League East foe with an awesome tweet after the game. Judge arguably is the front runner
Aaron Hernandez Died An Innocent Man Under An Old Massachusetts Law
Aaron Hernandez was convicted of murder in the case of Odin Lloyd’s 2013 shooting death, but after his suicide in prison Wednesday, he died an innocent man. Under an old Massachusetts legal principle called “abatement ab initio,” Hernandez’s conviction will be voided, as the case hadn’t yet gone through the appeals process, chief legal counsel to the Massachusetts Bar Association Martin W. Healy told The Boston Globe on Wednesday. Healy also said it rarely happens, but it comes from English common law and exists in many older states. “Unfortunately, in the Odin Lloyd matter, for the family, there won’t be any real closure,” Healy told Th...
