I had never heard of J.B. Holmes before today and I only heard of him today because apparently someone confused Aaron Rodgers with Holmes.
Holmes is a golfer and both he and Rodgers are playing in the Pebble Beach Pro Am, which began on Thursday.
As far as I can tell, the similarities pretty much end after professional athlete and playing in Pebble Beach Pro Am this week.
This is J.B. Holmes.
Put a cowboy hat on that dude and he’s your shit-kickin’, chaw-spittin’, nitwit cousin from Texas.
Yeeeeeehaw!
But this still happened.

Rodgers and his partner, Madison’s own Jerry Kelly, finished the first round of the tournament at -8, which was good for a tie for ninth place.
Look nothing alike
Yeah, other than a goatee and frequently citing God, JB Holmes and Aaron Rodgers aren’t anything alike.
