Is A-Rod hurting this team by not deciding if and when he will retire?

I hope he never changes

1st installment for 2013
RODGERS...
(on Wallace): He's seen a lot of football.. he knows the game really well. I don't think transition will be difficult for him… I told him - I want input. I want to know what you're seeing/thinking. I think it's going to be a good situation.
(on Scott Tolzien): "He went to the Berkeley of the Midwest (Wisconsin)."
(on Jolly): brings a lot of energy; brings that confidence to the defense; some nasty to him… He really is enjoying this opportunity. We're a better football team with the more Johnny Jolly's you have. You can't have enough guys who just really love the game. It's fun to see guys who really enjoy football. It's infectious.
(on leadership [former teammates comments] - He refused to address directly, but said):
"I'm going to continue to lead the way I've been leading. I think guys respond positively to that." "I'm very confident in the way I lead… It's not going to change. I enjoy what I'm doing. I love my job."
(on SF): "You look across the ball and it's talent all over the place. A lot of Pro Bowls…" "They are a dynamic offense... Colin maybe the only guy in the preseason who played LESS than I did." "I'd like to think we've won a lot of games mentally here Monday through Saturday, out-scheming teams."
(on limited snaps so far with Jordy and Cobb) : As usual, the ones are going to take all the reps vs. the look team. That will be enough to feel ready to play w/ Randall and Jordy.
(on the running game): It's going to be important to get those (RBs) going early in the game and get them opportunities.
"I like the personalities and the talent that (the rookies) bring… Micah Hyde is most impressive demeanor-wise."
Thanks for posting that. Man, even 12 feels the need to single out Hyde. He must be an impressive dude.
RODGERS
(on new State Farm commercial) To get to work with the "SuperFans"was a blast. State Farm been a great partner to work with… Probably some more coming out...
(on Braun) " I haven't gotten one of those calls (from Ryan Braun)." Disappointed by this? "No." On future of restaurant involvement: "Stay tuned."
"Sunday, we had a chance to win in a tough environment... and we came up short." "The NFC West is developing a reputation of being some very tough, physical football teams…There is respect on both sides (GB-SF)." "(San Francisco) is a team we'd love to see in the postseason."
(on Jordy Nelson) "He's an incredible receiver. Made 2 incredible catches in Week One." (on tiptoe catch): "I put the ball about 4 feet outside where I wanted it to be. Unbelievable catch. I didn't think he caught it."
"I know James (Jones) is going to be a big part of our offense. He's a guy who runs every route to win… He's unselfish."
(on Cobb catch/big hit) "It's great when you put a ball on a guy and he takes a shot, when you see him get up really quick. Makes you feel better."
(on INT tackle): "It's tough to not be competitive. I hate throwing INTs. Do anything to not give up a pick-6." "It wasn't pretty, but somehow my legs got tangled with his and he came down."
(on Wash.) "Very talented team. Team that is going to be coming in here hungry. We're both 0-1 right now."
"Can't have the inconsistency of the three-and-outs. That just kills your momentum and puts defense back on the field."
"Eagles ran a lot of plays and looked impressive."
(on Tombstone quote last week) "In college, I watched basically 2 movies on my 13- or 15-inch TV-VCR.. Tombstone and Rudy."
Found an interview between Tedford and Rodgers. I see why he likes Rudy.

pretty cool that he did this and pretty cool that he can do it without getting mobbed...
He probably took Crosby with him hoping he'd pick up a few pointers from the kickers.
Very cool.
Wait! Isn't that the QB who doesn't support his teammates?
Very cool thing to do.
