Kampfgeist Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Things I think we all can agree on at this point: [1] Shailene Woodley is the worst and is directly responsible for getting Aaron's last seasons cancelled in the same way Diversion Allegiant was cancelled [2] Ken Jennings should be the new Jeopardy! Host and should have his name in Lambeau Field before Aaron [3] Aaron Rodgers is one of the top 3 QB's in the NFL and is also one of the top 3 most petty and egotistical men on the planet [4] Up to this point I have not been accused of making the dumbest post in this thread. I have tried hard but apparently I can't compete with some 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good or bad. 4 minutes ago, incognito_man said: I agree there's no problem with Aaron discussing with teammates or former teammates what his future plans might be. I don't care about this "story" one way or another. It's a non-story IMO I guess he depends on how the conversations went. Telling the guys he’s not going to be back when in all likelihood he is this year just doesn’t sit right with me . Where is the line ? The line where he’s being a locker room poison ?

vegas492 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Here's what I think. Lists are fun. As are bullet points. Munn is a better actress than Woodley, and hotter, too. Danica is a better driver than Woodley and Rodgers. @ThatJerkDave yah, nothing, just wanted to tag you. @Normlikes to drink. Either Aaron Rodgers is the dumbest smart man in the NFL, or our front office is just as vindictive as he is. Feels like we are either halfway to heaven, or halfway to hell. So to hell it is, let's drink! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NFLGURU Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I dont get the whole pissed they cut Jake and Jordy angle. Both were done. Jordy played in Oakland for a year and was a shell of his former self, Kumerow went to Buffalo and was cut before he got his luggage. What gives????

It's an extremely entitled POV IMO. That because he wasn't MVP caliber in 2018 & 2019 that he deserves to be one of the more underpaid QBs in the league for the rest of his contract. What makes the people on Rodgers side sound entitled? I'm not on either side. It sucks equally for both sides IMO. I'd just assume he be moved tomorrow so everyone can move on. I think the longer this carries on the more damage that occurs. The locker room isn't a room with a bunch of fans and I'd bet my life that the vast majority of them are on the side of the player. We could be looking at damage that effects the franchise for multiple seasons. Just curious as to why your feel most players will support Rodgers? Is this because of the 'fraternity of players'? The main issue Rodgers appears to have with GB management is lack of a say in decision making. To my knowledge the only position players that have got into this in the recent past, across the NFL, are all QB's. Do the other players even understand where Rodgers is coming from? Its like the CEO complaining to a junior manager about the owner not asking him before buying the company Gulfstream. Its a problem that other players may understand but will never experience. If that was about $$ maybe I could buy it, but this appears to be beyond that. I do agree with you though about moving on from this sooner than later. If Rodgers has made up his mind that he does not want to play here, despite managements efforts, tell him that you are willing to move him for an offer they deem worthy for and that he may not have control on where he goes. If you want to be nice, get the 3 best offers preferably from outside the NFC, tell him that is all they have and let him pick the team to go to. Might hurt our return a little bit but might help the PR. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most competitive kind of grown-butt men, too. They are exactly the types not to let others make decisions for them. I'm not even sure it's a factor for them, much less a driving factor for them.

Rodgers was around when Donald Driver was cooked. And still on the roster despite being cooked and it was widely known that it was his last year. It is possible he felt that Jordy deserved that as well. Kumerow? That one I do not get. Rodgers didn't really throw to him anyway. That being said, it isn't like Malik Taylor was any better. I still have nightmares of watching him literally trot out of the endzone and get gang tackled at the 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each player needs to look out for themselves regarding: Salary and contract, playing opportunity, depth chart status/job security, team environment, culture/location of team, family, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise everyone else will be like "yeahhh...alright Aaron, i'm not affected by anything you're whining about, so love ya man, but adios!" And they'll still make the best decision for them personally and professionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
