The Green Bay quarterback played against the Rams with some of the longest hair he’s exhibited during the later stages of his NFL career. Usually, the biggest appearance intrigue with Rodgers comes from facial hair — mustache or fuller beard or ever clean shaven. But against Los Angeles, Rodgers was sporting a middle part.

“I Want a Famous Face” is disgusting in so many ways, it’s hard to know where to begin. The show is exactly what it sounds like–a look at people who not only don’t like their appearance, they want to assume the identity of their favorite celebrity. A plus-size woman gets tucked, lifted and lipoed in hopes of looking like Kate Winslet. A professional Britney Spears impersonator goes in for Britney-size breasts....

The idea has picked up steam in part because Wilson is entering the last year of his contract, and negotiations on an extension with Seattle have not yet commenced.
