The anniversary of 9/11 is an incredibly painful time and a very tough day for many people around America. That's even truer when it comes to New York City, New Jersey and the entire surrounding area.
Thousands died in the Twin Towers, and the city's resiliency in the face of tragedy is legendary. Rodgers running out onto the field carrying a huge American flag on 9/11 is about as powerful as it gets in terms of symbolism. The place went nuts, and it's not hard to understand why. People crave patriotism on 9/11, and there are plenty of stories to look at from that day.
Let's hope Rodgers is okay and the early reports about his health are overblown. If his season is over (definitely hoping that's not the case) then he spent his short time giving fans something incredible to cheer for.
