Given AR's propensity to want to be the guy who knows more than anyone else ...is it possible that he thinks that he had some "inside info" from some dark corner of the internet that claimed to already have the "Epstein list" and Kimmel was on it?

people proclaiming their insights and arguing about sports on any media turned me off decades ago.  besides mine own eyes, this is the only other place I go for any Packers info/update.  glad a lot of you pick through the shit to keep me informed of sometimes relevant info, but I'll pass on the corporate whores of sports media every time

I agree on Mcafee and I can't watch all the time because his Bro persona at times is a  bit much for me but at the same time I do like him.  IMHO I think his schtick works for the group of fans that are sick of the Cowturds, Bayless, and Screamin A's of the world.   

Once a month I have lunch with a bunch of guys from my HS class. We meet at the local Casino in a restaurant area that used to be Draft Kings but some other co. runs it now. The have a bunch of giant TV screens on the wall and Mcafee , Steven A, cow turd and skippy are all on the same time. Talk about a racket!

Here is a great site for Packer articles, etc.

All at the same time?  I would have to be drinking a lot of tequila to even begin

to tolerate that.

Make fun of a guys baldness, his looks, his political beliefs, basically anything is OK in my book, but there is a line.   Go over it and you better be able to back it up. Alluding to a guy being a pedo without a shred of evidence is just plain wrong.  All he has to do is say I’m sorry , I thought my comments would be taken as a joke, I was wrong, again, I apologize.  

The ball is in AR’s court.  He needs to clean this up.  

So CTE which often leads to suicide is also good in your book.   Man, strange book.

No, he said he wanted to see the list and assumed powerful people were on it.    He was right and we haven’t seen the flight logs yet.

Then where in the world did he get that Kimmel would be on it? As for him being "right", everything I am seeing so far has been previously reported.

For over a decade this very forum wouldn't shut up about how smart AR12 is.  I always thought he was a pompous d-bag, as many big brains are.  Excellent football player though.

The funny thing is how some of the emotional/personality stuff that's been on full display the last few years impacts his play on the football field, both positively and negatively.  How the confidence and drive increase his precision, control, and coolness under pressure, but how when that arrogance reaches a tipping point he won't take the short outlet passes, he acts harshly and impatiently with younger players with an almost childish cold shoulder and refusal to throw to them if they disappoint him.  The same arrogance that infuses some of his misguided opinions off the field shows up on the field and in his play so that he hasn't reach even greater heights and achievements.  It's those personality features that stopped him from being the unquestionably greatest player of all time. Excellent football player though.

and all these years I thought it was just the defense.

Great point, IMHO AR's overriding need to prove he is the smartest guy in the room resulted in overcomplicating the game. He wanted to play chess but couldn't understand that all he really needed to play was checkers.

Some of us were saying this when he was winning MVP’s.

This! 💯% why I think Love will win more Super Bowls. He understands the team concept. He knows he doesn’t do it by himself and his personality suggests that is just a part of his deoxyribonucleic acid. He will never be as good as Rodgers in the regular season, stats wise, but he will will the team on to a win.

So smart he ignored a wide open Lazard to force it to a double covered Davante. Such a pleasure watching Love spread the ball around. Bo Melton? Rodgers wouldn’t have let him sniff the ball.

My guess is if Love finds continued success in the NFL and lands a huge contract or two, his personality might be a bit different in 10 years than it is today.  I'm certain we've seen that before.  

AR's tendency to bypass the easy throws underneath in search of the big play downfield is a significant flaw in his game (IMO) that Love doesn't appear to have. Agree with others that I wouldn't be surprised in the least if he has more postseason success than the previous QB did.
