He did not follow protocol at the Halloween Party, probably not the only one try to keep up.



Do you ever read what you write before you post it? At this point, I don't know who's nonsense is worse, you or enough already.

Why does Rodgers or any player have to say they would have to sit out because they were not vaccinated. Is that some rule you just made up that unvaccinated players have to make some verbal declaration. Seriously....WTF!

To my knowledge, Rodgers sat out of the game yesterday (no protest that I can see on his part....hence, he accepted the penalty...no pass no matter how many times you want to repeat your lie). I don't care about your conjecture on what you think about his teammates and coaches and if they were mad (that's between them and Rodgers).

And if you want to point fingers, maybe you should point one at the NFL since they knew Rodgers status back in August and they sure as hell saw him at press conferences....but alas, the hypocrisy abounds. Been to an NFL game lately? Why don't you point some fingers at those maskless vaccinated fans who aren't following the science you preach (yeah I know, they were only following the guidelines to get in the stadium...that doesn't mean they're still not a bunch of hypocrites if they're getting their panties in a wad over this).

You sure like to insinuate a lot of stuff with nothing whatsoever to prove it. Just another poster frothing at the mouth pulling stuff out of thin air because you're so caught in your witch hunt.

Aaron Rodgers is right about Covid, and he was right to be angry at the Packers when they wasted a high draft pick on Jordan Love.

Basically, they want to cancel him because he doesn’t think like they want him to.

Oh God forbid they lose a football game. How will you ever go on with life?

Freedom of choice is far more important than a kid's game.

Although I flushed the NFL last season, I am now a huge fan of Aaron Rodgers the human being.

But don't forget Love is as good, if not better according to him.

Yeah, Love was lights out yesterday...190 yards passing with a passer rating of 69. 7 points scored.

This forum clearly doesn't have very knowledgeable football fans.

Has Aaron Rodgers been treated the same way as Colin Kaepernick?

Did the Packers bench him for the season? Has he lost his contract?

If not then he doesn’t appear to be cancelled.

I’m not a fan of the “shut up and dribble” crowd. Athletes have a right to an opinion just like everyone else. It’s other people’s fault for giving this opinion more importance than it deserves. But, this is clearly the difference.

Well, Ingraham was criticizing LeBron for political comments he made in an interview. Rodgers' political comments were also part of an interview. So, not terribly different, IMO.

Battle??? Rogers simply lied to his fans and crossed his fingers that he would not catch covid and have his lie found out. Rogers could have said I am not talking about my vaccine status or said no I am not getting it. But he chose to make people think he got the vaccine. That is a coward.

Used to be honesty was a virtue for conservatives. Not lying and misleading. At least Kyrie Irving no matter what you think of him stood up and said he was not getting the vaccine. Rogers was afraid to stand up and say anything.

And what is this about players resisting authority? Kaepernick did that as did the players who took a knee. I did not agree with any of that but they had just as much a right as Rogers does to not get the vaccine. But when they took a knee, Trump voters lost their minds. They said they had no right to resist authority.

Poor comparison. Kaepernick lost his focus on football and became a liability on the field, that’s why he was canceled. As much as I dislike Rodgers I have to admit he’s probably the best in the NFL and should be the MVP regardless of his vaccine stance.

I am waiting for Igraham to say "just shut up and throw", now Rodgers is a medical expert and that's why he
is sitting on the bench. They will likely end up in the playoffs, will he continue his stance and role the dice and possibly sit out 10 days.
