anybody read it or know about it??? It's being discussed on OTL on ESPN. ??? Just what he needs going into next week.
Replies sorted oldest to newest
It actually came out yesterday, I believe. It's not the first time he's had to deal with the press talking about his family. Earlier this year during the four losses there was a lot of speculation and talk on it.
I heard it from Hoda!
NY??? They are still pissed from last weeks game.
New York Times? Does anyone still read that rag and believe it has fair reporting. Pull-eeeeze.
Family riff increase BFI
ROTFL!!!! (I don't know how to those icon thingy-dingies).
anyway, thanks, EKB......I just spit up some coffee on the keyboard!
I am going to frame that chart and put it on my desk in order to give me a laugh each day.....just curious, but did you get that from the Onion? or National Lampoon?
ha...seriously, look at what they put in the middle: NPR, CNN, AP, NYTimes, Wash.Post, BBC, Reuters, the alphabet Networks; USA Today....are all without bias??? too funny....
It's already been proven that those news networks are spokesmen for the Democratic Party....the Alt Left in this country. At least on Fox you will hear ALL the news and not just news favorable to only half the country.

How did you get the guy's avatar on the cover of the magazine?
"One in the news is enough for us." - Ed Rodgers (maybe he's talking about Jordan?)
Ed Rodgers said he no longer had to brace himself for the inevitable questions from his patients first thing Monday morning...
In a few years AR will be done playing and those MM/Arm-Chair QBs will no longer be trying to bend Ed's ear over what his son did or not do the previous game. Maybe the distance while AR is playing is a plan/smoke screen to give his parents some bliss?
13 seconds I'll never get back.
Biggest Packer win since 2010 and people are worried about some low level TMZ type s**t from a tabloid rag like the NYT? I'll never understand why anyone airs their families dirty laundry to the public. If the media ever asked me about personal family issues the answer would always be, "No comment...it's none of your business." That goes for AR's brother, father, AR himself, or anyone in the family.

I know. I agree. You guys were actually taking EKB's graphic as truth.
Pay attention boys and open your eyes....start watching other news programs....soon, you'll understand what is going on. I take your sarcasm as a badge of honor. The truth is I'm a centrist and realize what is going on. I don't watch Hannity or anything...but I get my NEWS from FOX because they are not afraid to report ALL the news, not just what Democrats want you to hear.

What many of you don't understand is that video is exactly what the mainstream has been doing to the president the last 8 years. That's why it so funny.
Jesus.
I just find it funny that there's this whole notion that he's "gone Hollywood" and gotten too big for his family. Yet he still keeps in touch with people from his high school and Jr. College. If you didn't read, he bought his alma mater helmets for the whole team and helped fund a trip for a game, even sending a good luck video. Seems to me he still has time for his hometown, maybe just not his family. Suggests maybe things aren't as one sided as everyone would like the story to be.
If it pisses Aaron off, I'm all for it!

That is a lie.
No you arent
And no, you don't.
Knock it off, CA. Yes I am! Don't drink the kook-aid with the rest. You're smarter than that.
I don't trust the mainstream news and neither should you. I'm not a big Trump supporter either.
But I do see what is going on and I do feel sorry for you IF you thought EKB's graphic was legit, then there's no reasoning with you at all.....and that's the problem with Democrats...if you don't drink the kool-aid, you must be wrong and called names. You can't debate the issues.

Please just stop.
I agree, Bob. EKB should've never posted the graphic link if he was serious.
I was talking to you.
Talk to everyone, Bob, talk to EVERYONE! If not, then maybe Boris can have two sites, one for Democrats and one for Republicans.
If one side of politics is going to be blathered, then the other side can be blathered, too. EKB's graphic was ridiculous...all I did was call it out as such.
Jesus.
I didn't click on EKB's link. Why did you?
um, duh, er....if someone posts a link for other posters, isn't it polite to see what it is? really?
oh, sorry, I clicked on a poster's link. my bad.

I rode the train into the city with Turturro one morning, outta brooklyn. Seemed like one cool cat. A little intense.
I flew to Vegas last summer and sat right in front of Rollie Fingers, who was sitting next to a guy who thought he was Sandy Cofax...it was awkward for all of us.

I rode a rickshaw with Dunning Kruger and his pet parakeet Confirmation Bias. It ended exactly as I thought it would.
A number of years ago I was on a flight and sitting right behind me was Al Franken. He graciously traded seats with a woman from another row so she could sit next to her spouse. That seemed like a fair and balanced thing to do.
I once saw Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald in LaGuardia with a very young and very busty blond.
He gave off a TON of meathead vibe.
Sofia Vergara and I once spent 15 hot minutes together on the chaise lounge of her Malibu condo.
The dentist told me to put the magazine down and to get the **** out of his office though.
I once knew a hooker named Minnie Mazola!
Oh yeah...well back in the 70's there was an Iowa all-state girls basketball player from Moravia HS named Fonda Dicks...and she ended up marrying a guy who's last name was Peters! Absolutely true story... google it if you don't believe me!
Jesus ****.
EKBs link was a ****in' joke, which is why he labeled it BFI, for Belly Fire Index. He used the graphic (real or not is irrelevant) to emphasize the idiocy of a potential family riff being an issue.
8 and ****in' 0. Family rifff.
Greatest QB to play the game, ever. Family riff.
SDPF, if you see a link on this site and aren't sure if the linker (is that word) was being serious or not... go with they weren't being serious. Save yourself the embarrassment of looking more stupid than you may already.

Hate to take the focus off of the Times article(refuse to click/read it BTW) but I would like to comment : I think Turturro is one fine actor.
Dr._Bob posted:Hmm... I wonder what the word "rededicate" means. Maybe Joe could look it up in the dictionary.
Simple - re-ded-I-cat-e means to kill your cat again. Everyone knows that.
The word is rift.
Riff is a musical term.
Aaron does play guitar.
I prefer "schism".
And if he did, it got burnt in the fire
There's more than one way to schism a cat.
Took an @AndrewBrandt class my senior year. He advised us not to assume athletes are great people, but that Rodgers was legit a great dude.

There was a lot of riffraff on the raft, which was rift with rough reafer that was referred to as ripe for the taking

1. All the cool kids prefer the word "sammich" these days.
2. To illustrate the correct terms for the proper concept using modern media, "Barney and Thelma Lou watched a George RAFT movie."
3. Marty McFly played the opening RIFF from "Jonny B. Goode" on a vintage Sunburst Gibson ES-150 guitar.
4. There was a RIFT between Dwight Schrute and Michael Scott when Dwight insisted on the job title of "Assistant Regional Manager."
5. If this devolves into another tirade about which news sources we can believe, I will officially lose it. I spent many years directing live tv newscasts in California and here in Idaho. Please do not tell me that your network is credible because their megaphone is the loudest and they're saying something different. Loud = Loud, not necessarily True. Nor is different necessarily true.
I weep for what has become of TV news. This is what happens, folks, when you have this mania for deregulation. The FCC no longer has the balls to do much, and our worthless Congresspeople have done away with the Fairness Doctrine and Section 315. This has resulted in the commodification of tv. News is now just another product to sell. I will puke if I see yet another tv news story about the reporter who is pregnant or now has baby photos to share with us! I don't want them to be my friend! I want them to do their JOBS! That means having the balls to dig up dirt and investigate, NOT just to entertain and smile for the camera and talk about what a Wonderful friggin' community we all live in, where people care so damn much about each other that I just want to friggin' puke out my guts!
The "4th Estate" is an essential part of (our disappearing) Democracy! I'm sick of Feaux News! I've heard quite enough people say that CNN, CBS, etc. are not credible news sources. If you believe that, you might just as well be reading PRAVDA!
So, your telling me that the local news channel is not really here for me?

That's easy for you to say. You, probably, have all sorts of real friends. Some of us have to take our friendships where ever we can find them.
Friends isn't real?
Internet friends are as real as it gets.
Real friends don't come with dick jokes and memes.
Well maybe they do but definitely no gifs.
Friggen simpletons. Cultured intellectuals do not limit the news channels of which they nurture their intellect. In other words, I just flip channels until I find the newscaster with the biggest knockers.

Pseudo Sandy was on Rollie's right. pretty cumbersome for them I'd imagine.

It's actually a decent, little piece. It doesn't lay blame, nor does it speculate. There's a rift, of sorts, which is pertinent/timely and it gives information that is even-handed in showing it isn't just Aaron "going Hollywood" and forgetting everyone in his home town, etc.

Pardon the politics and I agree with the liberal media bias comment. But Fox is no saint. They are very much pro war neocons which is equally bad.
It. Is. time.
Network came out over 40 years ago, well before any of the cable news channels even existed.
And if you want to talk about "fake news", pretty much everybody was implicit in the "clown threat" moral panic last fall, before the election gave them a shiny new panic to chase after. And the clown nonsense was just the latest in a long line of panics, like vodka tampons or jenkem or rainbow parties. But somehow the media outlet that has political views the reader disagrees with is the one that's uniquely bad.
(I'll also add that the Canadians and Brits I know have a visceral dislike for the CBC and BBC. Getting the FCC more involved in what's covered isn't the answer.)
