Hub Arkush returned to 670 The Score in Chicago on Wednesday afternoon with a qualified apology for his statements from Tuesday, in which he stated his intention to not vote for Aaron Rodgers for NFL MVP for reasons other than his on-field performance. Arkush has now limited his apology to writing.
