Everyone should be as excited as the ESPN Brazil commentary team was about Aaron Rodgers’ Hail Mary touchdown

Aaron Rodgers completed one of the greatest last-second plays in recent memories on Thursday Night Football as he completed a 61-yard Hail Mary to Richard Rodgers as time expired to defeat the Detroit Lions and cap-off a comeback from a 20-point deficit. The Green Bay Packers were understandably excited after the play, but not nearly as excited as one commentary team.

ESPN Brazil was broadcasting the Thursday night contest and obviously had the call for the Rodgers Hail Mary. However, their call of that fantastic finish is one of the best things that you will ever hear:

That is shear elation and bewilderment from those commentators. They can’t believe what just happened at Ford Field, but they could not possibly be any happier that it did, in fact, happen. We should all be so lucky as to fell that kind of joy in our lives.

If there ever was a reason to freak out over Thursday Night Football, though, Rodgers’ Hail Mary certainly is it. From his escaping the pass-rush, to him throwing a pass so high that it almost hit the roof of Ford Field, to the tight end coming down with the catch for the win, everything was just incredible.
