Rodgers got it over Brady because he is more well liked by the fans. It's basically a fans choice award.

Besides.... Brady is a wuss.

Yes. This is from Packers.com. Didn't see it here, but another site was saying that Bart Starr received the award for Aaron since he couldn't be at the ceremony due to Super Bowl prep. Pretty classy of Starr, I thought.

I liked seeing Ahman Green's name down there for 2003 FedEx Ground Player of the year...
