Dear Aaron Rodgers,

Thank you. Thank you for eighteen years

Thank you for the joy and clutch moments, and easing Packers fans' fears

Thank you for carrying the load for so long

Thank you for simply smiling even when the media treats you so wrong

And arrogantly sees you as being below some of your inferior peers

Thank you for being that "Bad Man" that we all love

Thank you for making it easy for the Packers to rise above

Any moment when our backs are against the wall

The man gives us his all

And truly shows everyone in the league what he's made of

Come September, he'll be wearing a different shade of green

And a different number as well, it'll be quite the scene

He's in the AFC East

And boy, he will feast

On Dolphins, Patriots, and Bills--and some other teams in between

In closing, I want to end this epistolary rhyme

With one last line of gratitude that's absolutely sublime

Without any delay

I really want to say

Thank you, Aaron Rodgers, for being the Greatest of All Time

Sincerely, a devoted and diehard Green Bay Packers fan
