But it was apparently inspired by a Russian czar. "I was watching ping-pong on MSNBC in the Olympics, and they showed this ad for this TV show which was going to be about Abe Lincoln and Czar Nicholas, who was the last czar of Russia," Rodgers said. "So anyway, Czar Nicholas had this look. So I was laying in bed, I go, 'That's a sweet look.' So I got up, about 10:30 at night, I shaved my chin and said, 'Hey, if the czar can do it, I can do it."
Rodgers went on to explain that the Czar look had an official name. "Matt the trainer and I looked it up on Beards.org, and discovered that it had a name: The 'friendly mutton chops.'"
