BLUE 1,026 Posted June 14, 2011 Posted by Mike Florio on June 14, 2011, 12:47 AM EDT The lockout is providing NFL players plenty of time to pursue other interests. For Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, those other interests include starting a record label. Rodgers has launched Suspended Sunrise Recordings, and the company is working with a band known as The Make, which has its roots in Rodgers’ hometown of Chico, California. “This is the first step in the process,†Rodgers told KRCRTV.com. “My business partner and I have been working for a couple of years trying to put this whole thing together. We’re excited about starting the process, to see what happens with this band. Obviously football is my first priority, music is my passion after that.†Or maybe Rodgers is just looking for a tax write-off. If he isn’t, there’s a good chance that he nevertheless has found one.

GA_Eagle 595 Posted June 14, 2011 Seems like a record label is a bad investment nowadays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WindyCitySports 407 Posted June 14, 2011 Perhaps he should be working out more instead of doing this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted June 14, 2011 Seems like a record label is a bad investment nowadays. Kinda what I was thinking... Unless you are one of the mega labels, you aren't going to get very far. You might strike gold and find the next "it" band or singer, but the chances of that are slim to none. Perhaps he should be working out more instead of doing this. I guarantee you that Aaron is in peak physical condition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Packers Dynasty 2010 116 Posted June 15, 2011 Perhaps he should be working out more instead of doing this. Cause you can't do anything on the side? I bet the Bears are working out 24/7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Durant4MVP Posted June 15, 2011 Perhaps he should be working out more instead of doing this. I agree. He should robotically throw footballs and bench press simultaneously 24 hours a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WindyCitySports 407 Posted June 15, 2011 Jesus Christ I didn't mean to offend anyone. It's just that a lot of players are in the news for working out and organizing team practices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
badgers 380 Posted June 15, 2011 Jesus Christ I didn't mean to offend anyone. It's just that a lot of players are in the news for working out and organizing team practices. No offense taken. Just cuz everybody is out working out with their teammates doesn't mean we have to. It's still mid-June, training camps for the Packers usually don't start til like July 25. Rodgers and other team leaders said they're still betting on having a season and a new deal struck by the end of this month, so that camps begin on schedule. He said that if in a week or two there is no agreement, then he'll start organizing stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
