He didn't miss a single game (outside of COVID but so did MANY other players), they are the 1 seed, he's done a LOT for the community, and his teammates love him. Not the mention, MANY players hold out. He is the best player in the league, has done a lot of winner over there and he wants a say in what happens for certain things and wants to feel wanted for by his organization. If Josh did this same thing in 10 years, none of us would be mad (if he had a similar career to Rodgers). So what's your point? I said he spoke truth about what he thought. I expressed my opinion that I agreed with him. Perhaps if your reading comprehension skills were better, you would get the point. 2 Quote

No you said- he spoke the truth- "that he is an ignorant and selfish jerk" and calling someone a "selfish jerk" is very subjective with little truth. So perhaps if your literary skills were better you'd understand my point I refuted your point about him being selfish in that... He NEVER missed a game, he does what all player do, exercise their rights as players. He felt he wanted more power, so he held out (as many players do). He hasn't been selfish in any way shape or form to the organization. If you believe so, explain what he's done that's out of the ordinary and "selfish." All he's done is win the MVP 2 years in a row.

blitzboy54 Posted January 6, 2022 Posted January 6, 2022 Aaron Rodgers should just shut his ****ing mouth. He's not anywhere near as smart as he thinks he is. Quote

You are entitled to your opinion, wrong though you may be, but not to put words in my mouth or tell me I have no point when you just don't get it, not without a retort anyway. I am done explaining to you now. Welcome to ignore. Quote
Jerome007 Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 Dude has thrown only 4 INT all year, 13-1 as a starter, GB are the top team in the whole league. So yeah, he has a point. That journalist shouldn't vote anymore if he openly says by summer he had decided not to vote for him. WTH is that? Think of all the off season drama, and in the first game they were DESTROYED. Yet they finish on top. Crazy. 1 Quote

DrPJax Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 9 hours ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: It might be worth noting that a reporter could object to Rodgers misleading or lying to reporters about his vaccination status on moral grounds, which would not appear to be “political”. This behavior has been considered unethical since the time of Moses, maybe before. Rodgers also made a medical choice that impacted his football availability. A reporter could consider that un-MVP like behavior: “the best ability is availability.” Then there’s the issue of a celebrity using his platform to promote medical advice instead of encouraging people to choose a qualified physician and follow their physician’s advice. Some consider that immoral or unethical. Only the second of these would be strictly football relevant. But the others don’t appear political. Not relevant to play on the field, but not political. Some people make everything political though. Great points. Rodgers continues to prove he thinks he is smarter, above others , and that he is deserving of being treated differently. All of his actions are consistent with what’s important to Rodgers and how he wants to be placed on a pedestal , all of which shows he is NOT worried so much about team as he is worried about himself and a really meaningless award! It’s a team sport , he is going to be voted MVP anyhow , so why personally attack a reporter over one vote ( btw this guy has been around longer than Rodgers and has contributed to good publications that helped promote the NFL to get to the popularity it has now. )? Rodgers is so worried about perception yet he continues the exact behavior he has become well known for , arrogance and selfishness. Do any of us believe if Josh was about to be voted MVP, but just one vote went against him , he would have gone on a nationally televised rant!? No, because Josh and his actions are about team and team goals ! He hasn’t even mentioned not getting placed on the pro bowl roster once unless asked to respond! Why, because it’s not the TEAMs main goal or potential honor. Rodgers, tho, sees it as just unfathomable that some one could not see how IMPORTANT he is ! He continues to be a joke and parody of what TEAM is about. You made a great point about him using his celebrity to promote “ his own interpretation “ of the science stating he did so much research and consulted with “ his team “ of experts about the vaccine. Well , that’s just Bs as true science has proven the effectiveness of the vaccine against serious illness. I have stated this several times , it’s an individual choice medically , so His football celebrity does not make his “ research “ or his “ expert” consultants any more valid or correct than your own well trained doctor , as he continues pushing his own opinion as dogma to rationalize his deceptive speech and actions he later apologized for. All the awards have “ political “ nuances associated with them. See pro bowl voting , see HaLL of FAME VOTING, etc, so why is it any surprise someone chose more issues than just play on the field as a factor for him in his voting? The only non political thing in football is the final winner of a game or of the Super Bowl. The final score is not political or subjective. Why is the self - absorbed genius so offended and surprised by this and why is it worth becoming such a distraction to the team ranting about an individual award!? Because its never been about team with him ( as he held the team at ransom or in doubt about his availability all preseason), it’s just consistent behavior that he has to be seen in the same terms as Peyton with 4 mvp awards and he is appalled not everyone is willing to praise and adorn him as if it’s his right. The irony is incredible; he states the guy is a “bum “ and he “ doesn’t know me” and “ his vote should be taken away” ! Just about every negative , nasty thing he could come up with , and remember, this is from a guy WINNING the award and is just upset its not unanimous! A few seconds later when asked if Rodgers knows the voter personally , He stated NO , I have no idea who he is. There it is , Rodgers chastising the voter for not knowing Rodgers personally ( as if that would change the guys reasons for his vote , esp give Rodgers charm!), all while wanting his voting ability stripped etc , yet never having met Hub or knowing him personally. The Rodgers Rule , just like his prophetic State Farm rate commercials ! Any guy who was dating Danica Patrick and manages to mess that up, is just adding more fuel to the fire all the time ; I don’t know him personally but I am voting he is an ASS, just as much as he might be MVP! 😀😉 1 Quote
Buftex Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) I can't think of any football player that has changed my opinion of him, so drastically, more than Rodgers has this season. He has always had a aloof sort of "I'm too smart for everyone" vibe, but in a low-key sort of way. But this season, he confirmed whatever possible negative ideas I had about him... he is a smug, arrogoant douche. But, a hell of a QB. Unless he is playing against the Patriots in the Super Bowl, I don't think I will ever find myself rooting for the Packers, like I always have, when the Bills aren't affected...as long as he is there. I might even find myself pulling for Brady (who, if they insist the MVP has to go to a QB, is every bit as deserving if not more-so than Prince Rogers), should the Bucs and Packers somehow face each-other in the playoffs. Rodgers is a bum! Edited January 7, 2022 by Buftex 1 Quote

Rock-A-Bye Beasley Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 Big fan. People lose their minds about his “I’m inoculated” comment. One guy in my fantasy football league was defending Henry Ruggs one week and the next week said “Rodgers gets away with anything” Quote
BuffaloRebound Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) Absurd. Either Esiason hates the guy and is trying to pile on, or Rodgers simply loves the drama. Edited January 7, 2022 by BuffaloRebound Quote

GottaRun Posted January 7, 2022 Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) Be interesting if the Super Bowl ends up getting moved to Dallas. League won't want to risk a restricted game attendance wise* + key players not playing. Yes I'm assuming the Packers get there. *based on California's history on this matter and the current wave.
