That has always been Aaron's biggest weakness. Championships mean a whole lot less to him than flashy stats. He, Favre and their fucked up egos have cost us championships.

Rodgers has prioritized avoiding interceptions, sometimes to the detriment of their chances to win games where he needed to take some risks to give them a chance.

Favre prioritized threading the needle between multiple defenders to have his highlights shown on ESPN. He took unnecessary risks of interceptions that increased their risks of losing games they shouldn't have.

Controlling your star players' egos is perhaps the most important skill for a professional coach. Phil Jackson somehow got Michael Jordan, Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman and a few others to do this to win titles. There aren't many Giannis types out there (humble enough to work through things) among guys that have been told they are the best things ever for large portions of their lives. (And I hope Giannis doesn't change, but who knows in another 5 years).

And rightly so. Kirk did it because he's a weird religious guy. Aaron did it because he's an asshole. End of.

Take this crap to a PM. This is already a volatile enough topic and discussion, I do not need either of you getting into a pissing match on here. If you want a back and forth, you will not be doing it in this thread.

Goaline-applies to you as well. Take your beef somewhere privately.

Since we're going personal, you don't know if he's unvaxxed or not you fucking clown.

NumberThree is posting protocols that affect vaxxed or unvaxxed.

So quite simply, go fuck yourself you butthurt chump because right now we have reporting from Rapoport stating "according to me".

I think Goalline, Henry, and I will all be in agreement if he's unvaxxed on our opinion of Aaron Rodgers. I wouldn't play him the rest of the year, and I'm one of the biggest AR fans out there (at least I was).

Some circumstantial evidence that supports that he MIGHT not be vaxxed are the things that have happened in the last couple of months with Miles Teller and Shailene Woodley (the people he was hanging out with in Hawaii).

“I’ve been immunizedâ€Ķ.”

And not one person in a room full of reporters said, “whoaaa. Hold up Hoss. WTF does that mean?!?!?”

That’s just lazy ass work by a lot of people.

Here's the dictionary:
immunize
verb
past tense: immunized; past participle: immunized
  1. make (a person or animal) immune to infection, typically by inoculation

And here's the CDC:

Immunization: A process by which a person becomes protected against a disease through vaccination. This term is often used interchangeably with vaccination or inoculation.

Rodgers petitioned the NFL to have an alternate treatment that he underwent before he returned to the Packers that would allow him to be considered the same as someone who received one of the approved vaccinations, sources told ESPN. After a lengthy back and forth, the league ruled that Rodgers would not get the same consideration and would be considered unvaccinated.

WTF does that mean?  "Alternate treatment"?  Is he on the horse paste?

Hey you bloody ****. I just backed off. You do the same.

I'm in the minority here, but I don't mind the fact that he has personal issues with the vaccine and chose not to get vaccinated. That's fine. I respect that personal choice. What I don't like is the fact that he intentionally misled people. If you're going to take a stand, take a stand. Invite the criticism. Engage in the dialogue. Explain your position to people.

And in the process, follow the necessary protocol to ensure that you are in the best position to play. He owed that to the team, the organization, and the fans.

If he is not vaxxed, he will be on the hook for hefty fines, as will the Packers for not enforcing rules on him.

I am not saying he's not vaxed or he is vaxed, just saying until we have something beyond the shadow of a doubt, I'm not assuming anything.

I wasn't pointing it at you, I was more trying to figure out exactly what Rapoport is trying to say because with those two statements it becomes more inference.  So basically I'm in the same camp as you. 

I still also hold that having a players status listed on reporting should include any exempt/unvaxxed/symptomatic descriptors. 

The fact is COVID was already making its rounds in the locker room.  To try and isolate Rodgers situation from Adams, Lazard and others is pure bullshit.

And stay, as much as possible away from people.

Ooh, did Henry get mad at me? Henry can't get mad at me. He was just flirting. That's all.

Yeah, I think I jumped the gun. I will wait for more info.

Then he's a fucking dumb prick if that's the case.

OK. Goalline can stand back up.

Rodgers is a fucking idiot. Alternate treatment? Probably some herb that Shailene told him to eat.

If nothing else, I'm now fully on the Jordan Love bandwagon. I think this fuck-up on Rodgers' part may help more people accept Jordan Love moving forward.

The other thing some reporters are speculating on is whether some of this crap during the offseason (hanging out in Hawaii and skipping OTAs) was related to his desire not to have to get vaccinated.

At least it will be interesting to see how Love does. And no, you can't draw any conclusions good, bad or otherwise about 1 performance.

But he should have all 3 starting WR's and Buckcherry at LT. And he's not facing a murderers row of defenses. KC also leads the league in giveaway's. So hopefully this defense gives Love a couple of gifts and a short field.

I've said enough.

Blow it up.  Let this be the last hurrah and get it over with. 

It will be interesting to see how this affects his long-term image and media prospects. He would be a tremendous football analyst. He's knowledgeable and often candid (except when it comes to immunized/vaccinated wordplay bullshit).

You think an anti-vax hippy image is the way to appeal to the Alex Trebek-loving crowd? No effing way.

He may have just pissed away a lot of post-NFL opportunities.
