Laura Okmin: Cam Newton UNCUT
zhlédnutí 353Před 6 lety
One of the most interesting conversations I’ve had with a superstar athlete on camera. Cam Newton and I sat down during a season Cam told me he was working on his maturation as a leader and a man. The genesis was a video his father put together for him in the off-season and showed him asking his son, “How do you think you represent the name on the back of your jersey?” That led to an epiphany a...

Laura Okmin: VIZIO PROfiles Aaron Rodgers part 1
zhlédnutí 1,6KPřed 6 lety
A 30-minute PROfiles episode (in four segments) showing the Packers’ quarterback like you’ve never seen before. I spent time with Aaron at his California house, at the beach where he strums his guitar and discusses navigating fame, and hit the road as he scouted bands for his music label. This show was aired years ago, but it’s still the episode I’m asked most about - thanks to Aaron’s guitar. ...
Laura Okmin: Michael Lehan Inspires Others
zhlédnutí 547Před 6 lety
One of my favorite interviews I’ve ever done for the NFL ON FOX pregame show, because it shows you don’t have to be a big name superstar to make a difference. You just have to have a story - and the vulnerability to share it. Enter six year NFL veteran Michael Lehan. After keeping his past a secret for years, Michael started to use his story - a boy who felt abandoned growing up in foster care ...
Laura Okmin: Donte Whitner & The Red Wagon
zhlédnutí 215Před 6 lety
A feature for the NFL on FOX pregame show, NFL safety Donte Whitner always had a reputation as a vicious hitter - earning the nickname Donte HITner - but I found out the genesis of that ferociousness had nothing to do with GIVING pain, but feeling it. At 4 years old Donte was hit by a car and not expected to walk again - let alone ever play sports. But once he was out of a full body cast, Donte...
Laura Okmin: My Hometown Aaron Rodgers
zhlédnutí 10KPřed 6 lety
A segment for My Hometown that aired on FSN. I traveled to Chico, California with Aaron Rodgers - after being named Super Bowl MVP in 2011 - to see how his hometown made him into the superstar athlete - and the person - he is today. Loved sitting in his high school bleachers and getting to know some of his closest friends.
Laura Okmin: PROfiles Sizzle Reel
zhlédnutí 734Před 6 lety
There’s nothing professionally that pushed me ... or rewarded me ... more than creating PROfiles. I wanted to create a show that showed NFL players/coaches/owners in the way I had gotten to know them - as husbands, fathers, sons and human beings. PROfiles aired nationally for two seasons and I had a ball booking, producing, writing and hosting every episode. Thirty minutes of seeing WHO these m...
Laura Okmin: PROfiles Brian Urlacher
zhlédnutí 949Před 6 lety
One of my favorite players - and people - to get to know in my 25 years of covering sports has been Brian Urlacher. He’s one of the kindest, honest, loyalist people I know - however - I always was challenged when interviewing him because once the cameras were rolling, the Bears Hall of Famer, would turn quiet. Yes. Brian Urlacher is shy. Honestly. So wanting to show who Brian was away from the ...
Laura Okmin: PROfiles USC Football
zhlédnutí 196Před 6 lety
A 2010 PROfiles show profiling the new USC football staff that was put together by then head coach Lane Kiffin. A very revealing look at Lane - who rarely shows his personal side - along with his staff, who are some of the most respected and colorful coaches in college and the NFL including Monte Kiffin, Ed Orgeron, Joe Barry and John Baxter. I loved spending time with each one of them and grea...
Laura Okmin: PROfiles Dwight Freeney
zhlédnutí 779Před 6 lety
A 30-minute PROfiles episode (4 parts) profiling Dwight Freeney. Dwight was one of the most under the radar superstar NFL players I covered. I really wanted to know if that was due to playing in the shadow of a Peyton Manning lead team ... or by design. I began the show with that question as Dwight opened up his world to give a true glimpse into WHO he is ... not WHAT he does. I loved this show...
Laura Okmin: PROfiles Arthur Blank
zhlédnutí 282Před 6 lety
One of my favorite PROfiles episodes was in 2011 when I profiled Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank. I told Arthur it would be my most challenging episode because I wasn’t yet sure how I could make an NFL owner/creator of Home Depot relatable. He wanted to know how I was going to do it, so I asked him where I would find him in jeans. His answer? His ranch - which is a working dude ranch. We beg...
Laura Okmin: PROfiles Jeff Fisher
zhlédnutí 673Před 6 lety
One of my most fun PROfiles episodes was traveling to somewhere in Montana (I was told to keep the location private to make sure fishing spots remained quiet!) to spend some time with then Tennessee Titans head coach Jeff Fisher. It’s a privilege when a head coach signs off on doing a 30-minute show profiling them as a PERSON. Most don’t want to show that side. I loved getting to see Jeff as a ...

Truth is more fascinating than fiction.

Jesus Christ dude
Hi Aaron, wishing you a very very merry Christmas filled with joy peace hope, strength, fresh starts and warmth of family. Stay strong, your a great guy. Keep fighting, keep being another Tim Tebow of life, keep being the man you are NEVER NEVER bow your knee to the NFL, keep standing up, keep speaking the truth, proud of you. Hugs
Both should be in hall of fame
i'm not a rodgers hater and i really hope my team gets him, but this was some over the top, cheesy, vomit worthy material....i know it's from 13 years ago but was this his putting out there moment for women
The GOAT
is it just me or was he flirting w her lmao
You know Rodgers hit that
Cali swag
Rodge does well to come to ME if he wishes to excel in music. IRON ROD 2
From Tuesday with Dan to Aaron Rodgers Tuesday
Great video! A-Rod is the man
Pat McAfee sent me
He's lead guitarist of Bandalos Chinos under a different alias.
Vomit
Cool video!
Damn this is corny. Why man, why? Update: I realize Aaron’s being sarcastic.
You're lame lol
agree 100% with you on this one
copium
2020 superbowl let's go baby
My daughter attends this school, and I feel this guy inspires these kids!!!
She was hardcore flirting
I hope these aspiring young ladies realized how fortunate they were to have you visit them and give some helpful advice. You've always struck me as the best NFL sideline reporter going.
This is the principal of osseo senior high, same person that forced open a bathroom stall to kick out a transgender for using the girls restroom. Horrible person.
I throw superbaw at my brother face
Let’s go to his mommas house..... oh I forgot
Lol I love that he didn't get into a 3rd person thing like she tried with him.
Aaron is one of the Top 5 Qbs in today's game that deserves another ring. He's one the last complete that can throw accurate on the run in full stride.
He needs to focus on football and winning more superbowls. Music can come after retirement.
Righteous1 you telling a successful grown ass man what to do over the internet is kinda funny
He can be even more successful with the talent he has. I'm just giving a suggestion.
Righteous1 Riiiight.. cuz him winning more championships is solely on him. Football is a team sport for 1, 2ndly he’s the best to ever do it & probably works harder than any1 to be the best & lastly, him doing other things in the off season or on his own time shouldn’t be comprehended as a distraction or an indication of him not being “focused”
Of course he can't win it alone but he's the leader so he could've pressured the coaching staff and owners to put more effort on their defense so it wouldn't always let them down. He is always carrying the team but should try to rely more on his team too.
144p???
like wtf..lol
I'm Laura Okmin's cousin. It fascinates me so much that she does sideline reporting on FOX NFL games, especially if she is working a Chicago Bears game.
