... and no time off for lying in a dark room, dating famous women, the Kentucky Derby, trips to ayahuasca camp, or golfing on other continents.
There was a twitter post yesterday from some guy at Gang Green saying AR had his worst day of camp, not hitting receivers or even getting near them, and going on a tirade. Can't find it or I'd post.
You mean this one?
@Fandame posted:Nah, he'd be a coach in the Magic Johnson, Wayne Gretzky, Singletary, Maradonna, etc., mold: HOF players who struggle to teach the game because it came so easy for them, and who are often short-tempered when their players don't reach the lofty heights like they did because they don't realize just how gifted they were as it came easily to them. (Not that they didn't have to work for it, but that they had, physically and mentally, what others can only dream about having.)
Rodgers' biggest weakness was to freeze out younger players who didn't do exactly what he wanted (or expected) them to do immediately. He wouldn't be good at player development at all.
There are exceptions to the great player/lousy coach paradigm. Larry Bird was a very effective coach. He would have won a title with the Pacers had they not had to play the peak-Shaq Lakers in the finals (Shaq averaged 38 and 17 with 3 blocks) and the Pacers did take them to 6 games. His Pacers team in 1998 also pushed the Last Dance Bulls to 7 games in that playoff series.
And he throws a 50 yard bomb with just a flick of his wrist.
He does have some arm talent.
I know for sure Rodgers won't think it's his own fault if things don't go well.

and I do really want to watch #12 this yearâĶâĶAH, NOT.
There we have it. The SB will be played between NY Jets and Chicago Bears. Payoff all the players now, tell them to go home, and hold the SB game in 2 weeks. Then we can all get on with our off season lives sooner.
Once a 12, always a 12. Well, unless you're a Seahawks fan. They've disappeared out here. A fence across from me had 12's on it for years. Now it's a rather impressive mountainscape mural.
The only major takeaway to have about the #Jets 53-man roster is that this group is the most talented the franchise has had in quite some time.

Maybe ever.
I'm sure even crappy teams like the Vikings and Chicago think their roster is the most talented in franchise history.
I wrote out the entire #Jets 53 man roster

Thoughtsâ
QB (2): Aaron Rodgers, Tyrod Taylor
RB (4): Breece Hall, Braelon Allen, Isaiah Davis, Izzy Abanikanda
WR (7): Garrett Wilson, Mike Williams, Xavier Gipson, Allen Lazard, Malachi Corley, Jason Brownlee, Irvin Charles
TE (2):âĶ
Samori Toure is going to the Bears practice squad
Shit!!!!!! that video of #12???? ðĒ. Ok, feel bad heâs not a Packer. Damn it.
I also expect to call the plays as I know better.
I expect to lock in on Davante Adams even when he's quadruple covered and Lazard is wide open.
Don't worry. THIS year, Rodgers will try and hit the open receiver - watch & see
Weird vibes in that presser from today. So much big picture stuff instead of focusing on this week. Almost seems like he's dreading how long the season is going to be.
Jets made a clusterflub out of the Reddick trade, but at least they can hang their hats on having the leverage. Brings back memories of the 12 trade. This all comes from Woody, imo. Consistently concerned about the wrong things.
I hope he kicks ass!
Worst bunch of scorned ex GFs. Night before your new man is about to take the stage and yâall are still bitching about the ex.

This thread is about the Ex and his new team....and I, for one, am certainly glad he's in the rear view mirror.
Check the Eagles week thread for tonight & this year's team....I'll meet you over there....big boy
A really touching message from #Jets QB Aaron Rodgers to #49ers pass rusher Leonard Floyd at the end of his presser:

âI hope he doesnât in any way feel responsible for that at all. Heâs a stand up guy, Iâve worked out with him in the offseasons.â
âHeâs a great player.âĶ pic.twitter.com/nJXCNdfIaS
Speaking of scorned ex-girlfriend.....
If that had been against Aaron Rodgerrs, he gets both feet in, does his taxes, gets the 2-point conversion, and proves aliens aren't real as time expires.
