On the wings of purchasing worthless stock in their football team, Packers fans have bought certificates providing them with the naming rights of stars in the Milky Way, and just in time for Christmas.

For the fifth time in their history, the Packers are offering a sale of what they call stock, though purchasers receive no more than a piece of paper saying they own a portion of the city-owned franchise. No voting rights, cash value or any other benefits come with the stock, come along with the $250 (plus handling fees) purchase of the stock, making it essentially a donation without a tax deduction. Naturally, fans are lining up.

There’s a new A-Rod in town and his name is Aaron Rodgers. Alex Rodriguez has been legally forced to stop calling himself by his famous moniker, after a judge awarded the trademark to the Super Bowl champion QB.

In the third quarter of yesterday's Thanksgiving game against the Lions, Aaron Rodgers had difficulty understanding the play call coming into his headset from coach Mike McCarthy.

With the announcement that Dale Sveum will become the new Cubs manager, many fans were left wondering exactly what it is the former Brewers hitting coach has that caught the eye of Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer. At today's press conference, the only conditions of Sveum's hiring were revealed.

After more than 90 years in the NFL, the Green Bay Packers were proud to celebrate a new tradition last month when 29-year-old fan Bob Glokowski became their first fan to earn a degree following 15 semesters at a local community college.

Dale Sveum managed the Brewers for the final 12 games of 2008 and helped them secure their first playoff berth since 1982, but that wasn’t good enough for Milwaukee, who refused to bring Sveum back as skipper for 2009. Now word is that the Cubs have made an offer to Sveum for their managerial vacancy.
