If you blinked, you might have missed him. Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers made a cameo appearance on Sunday night’s Game of Thrones, the penultimate episode of the series. Rodgers played an archer that was burned alive by Drogon, the last remaining dragon ridden by Daenarys Targeryan during the attack on King’s Landing. And if none of that makes sense to you, ask your much cooler friends.

Gunther Cunningham passes away at 72
Former Kansas City Chiefs head coach Gunther Cunningham died Saturday. Cunningham coached in the NFL for more than 30 years. He had two stints as the defensive coordinator for the Kansas City Chiefs from 1995-1998 and again from 2004-2008. He was head coach in Kansas City from 1999-2000 and finished with a record of 16-16.
So sad to hear of the passing of one of the best coaches in the game, Gunther Cunningham. I went against him & his defense in practice everyday for 4yrs with the KC & it definitely made me a better player. He was intense & took it personally if you had any success vs his unit!
