Does the ahole count as a ring?

What is Jermichael Finley and what comes out of his mouth, Alex?
What is it with former players going after current players? Ray Lewis is attacking Joe Flacco's leadership. Jennings and Finley are going after Rodgers. A lot of Type A personalities in the locker room and of course there will be clashes. Leadership doesn't have to be rah, rah, rah. However, if Rodgers starts changing in his own room, I'll have to change my mind about him. As for Rodgers personal life, it's no one's business but his own.
It's 2 things:
1) reporters with a column to fill, and
2) former players who miss the limelight and resent those still in it.
We haven't heard Rodgers' side and may never but as fans we tend to put the great players of our favorite teams on a pedestal and think they're perfect and then when we find out they're human or not the hero we think they are then we're disappointed. In some ways this reminds me of what happened with Favre.

Top 15? Wow, good thing they don't pay him like he is a top 2 QB. Top 15 is Jay Cutler territory, and I know this board has always been so impressed by him.
Every player has a down year. Trying to keep things relative. Rodgers down years are great years for lots of QBs. He's killing it compared to the reigning MVP!
I would venture a guess that the family issues aren't all that different from a number of others. Anyone that claims they have a perfect family or relatives are full of ****. Bottom line, we don't know the guy nor do we know his family situation. It is what it is.

3 things.
3) fans eat it up
Ray Lewis is attacking Joe Flacco's leadership.
Ray Lewis led his posse into getting him off a murder rap. What has Flacco done?

It's a black/white issue.
Sad, but true.
My sources tell me the anonymous source sounded very Sittonish. Then again my sources are also very anonymous.
I just want you all to quit nitpicking on my boy friend. I'm the only person that should do that. 
and dang it, I wish he'd get his mojo back.
And yet he took the time to send a Happy Birthday text to DJ Williams of all people. Yeah he's a horrible person. /s
Sorry but I'm not going to take anything J-Mike says seriously. He was a **** stirrer even when he was on the team. And unnamed sources from his past? People with axes to grind aren't going to be impartial.
The only thing I've heard in multiple stories is Rodgers is a bit sensitive and a perfectionist at everything and expects the same standards from his teammates. Most great players are that way. You know who that rubs the wrong way? People who think they're already great and don't need to improve even though they have obvious flaws. People like Jermichael Finley.
This over-analyzing of the psychology of AR is ridiculous. You wanna critique the play, fine. There's a lot of blame to go around on the entire team. But funny how as soon as the team struggles, journalists find lots of "sources" to question the integrity of the QB. Not his play, his integrity.
If the Pack was 7-2 this article would have never been written. And that really chaps my ass. Reporters stirring **** because see blood in the water, nothing more.

It's pretty simple. DJ Williams is a smart guy. Rodgers is a smart guy. Finley is a ****ing dumb****. I may work with dumb****s, doesn't mean I want to hang out with them.
It doesn't make me any less of an asshole but I'm not lying to you.
A holes - it's like an opinion. ..everyone has one and they all stink.
To rim or not to rim, that is the question.
Copious amounts of LSD and/or MDMA. Everything else is artificial.
Wonder if CWood will have any comment on this.

Also of note, all 3 of those guys, also smart individuals. And when I say smart they excelled in school, truly student athletes, not just jughead athletes.
Well other than using "retrospectively" when he meant "retroactively".
Retrospectively is not wrong there.
The family stuff sucks. The finger pointing sucks. His smugness sucks.
Still a great QB and will probably be a Packer until he retires or close.
However, if it is a team crippling issue they should trade him while he has massive value.. but I have a feeling that this is all blown way out of proportion. But if not, they should move him and reboot the team because he is the engine of this team. If it is terminally broke.. trade it, but I dont think that is the case, the brass needs to make that call.
