Because the Internet's the Internet, a website exists called Smokin' Jay Cutler, which features Photoshopped images of — you guessed it — Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler smoking cigarettes.

According to the site, it's "dedicated to the most apathetic looking athlete in the history of sports."

Yesterday, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers confirmed his fandom of the site, telling ESPN Wisconsin's Jason Wilde during an "Ask Aaron" radio segment that he modeled one of his pre-snap hand signals — which resembles Rodgers lifting a cig to his lips — after the meme star.

As transcribed by The Big Lead, the conversation went something like this:

Wilde: Jeremy asks, "What is that pre-snap signal where you look like you're smoking? Is that a smoke route, or is that an indicator of two high safeties?" Tony asks, "How do you keep from laughing with some of the hand gestures you do in the no-huddle?"

Rodgers: That was just a tribute to Jay Cutler, because there's that "Smoking Jay" website. So I was just doing a tribute to him ...

Wilde: I think you're making that up.

Rodgers: ... I don't remember.

Wilde: You've done it a lot of times, though. There's people that use it as their Twitter avatar.

Rodgers: It's a dummy signal. That's the whole thing. You know, like, smoking dope — you're a dummy if you smoke dope.

And there you have it.

Aaron isn't the only one to call on Smokin' Jay during a game, though. As several Twitter users pointed out over the weekend, the University of Nebraska football team has a play call board that features Jay puffin' away on it.
