The guy got Covid and got better with proven treatments. What's the controversy? He didn't risk his health and get sick like many other athletes have by getting the vaxx. You think Tom Brady got the vaxx? LOL no way, Jose.

Yeah, a really big story that wouldn't have went away easily either. That's the point. No doubt he would have lost sponsors either way.

The things boils down to, he signed an agreement to follow the rules and he didn't. He violated his contract. He cost the Packers one game already and the team will reportedly receive a huge fine for not reporting the violation. If he doesn't want to abide by a contract he signed, then he should retire. If any person signs a contract and does not follow it, they are usually fired or penalized. Why should he be "special"?

The media is so worthless when he said he was immunized they didn't even ask him to clarify
So its the fault of sports reporters that they did not figure out they were being lied to by Rogers? Interesting way to look at it.

That is how you get intereviews with wealthy famous athletes. Kiss their behind with softball questions.

Rodgers gave them a layup followup and they were too dumb to take it.
Why talk in riddles? How about No. I did not get the vaccine and asked for a waver. Stand up like a man. I am all for people standing up for their rights like Kyrie. Rogers was standing up for anything.

No venom. He chose to break a contract that he signed. He should expect repercussions.

True but the other part that isn't going away is his plan for alternative immunization, there is a healthy contingent of anti-vax celebrities it it most certainly influences people.

So a person makes a decision about an issue and a business or group disagrees and doesn't support said person any longer. Since when has that become cancel culture? I guess that's the new buzz word for being bitter that actions have consequences.
