Aaron Rodgers positive for COVID (update: “furious” status leaked, claims he didn’t lie, attacks NFL protocols)

[tom444]

funny how people in here are more upset with Rogers than they are with Henry ruggs who killed someone.

Two very different issues/events that people will respond to differently. It has nothing to do with who they're more upset with.

 

[tom444]

You just responded to a "loaded question" with a ton of loaded, flawed premises.

No, he just responded to a loaded question with a ton of common sense.

That is a very loaded question. The easy answer (in a vacuum) is YES. But we aren't living in a vacuum, but in a SOCIETY. And in a society you have BOTH individual rights and OBLIGATIOINS. That is what most of these right wing zealots forget. You have the right to yell "Fire", but NOT in a crowed theater. You have a right to decide what medication you take, but you can't send you kids to school without measles and polio vaccines.

So if you DON'T want to vaccinate yourself for a virus that has killed almost three quarters of a MILLION Americans in less than 2 years, then you should be willing to forfeit some of your rights to live in that society that you would be threatening. That might take the shape of wearing masks, keeping yourself away from crowed places, not being able to go into work, etc BUT if you are going to be a threat to society, then wouldn't you expect that society to protect itself FROM you?

So yes you DO have the right to say no, but you ALSO have to expect the consequences of a society that feels the need to protect itself as well. If you are OK with that, then I'm OK with you. The problem is that there is a small but significant minority that wants it BOTH ways. They want their rights as individuals, but also say FU toward the rights of their society to protect itself. All rights, no obligations. That sound right to you?

3 quarters of a million people died with covid. That’s not the same thing as being killed from it and people have to stop pretending it is.

Mcafee team is deleting comments criticizing Rodgers in the full interview on YouTube. It’s all Rodgers praise in the comment section

I find McAfee funny sometimes but he is becoming more and more annoying. He kiss Rodgers’s ass so much that everything he eats must taste like sh*t

 

[1960Pats]

The media is eviscerating Rodgers today. Everyone is calling him a liar even Stephen A Smith who loves him.

If the shoe fits...

 

[1960Pats]

Either Rodgers is lying or the NFL has bad doctors, because no reputable doctor would claim that you lcoild not get infected or spread COVID, as everyone has known since the vaccines were approved that both can happen. The vaccines are to protect from serious illness or death, they aren’t bulletproof, but they are the best option available.

Thank you Operation Warp Speed.

Can we focus on Rogers and Packers deceitful rule breaking and stop the virtue signaling political soap box preaching?

 

[1960Pats]

4. I hate him because of what he said on the radio. He literally FLED into the arms of 25% of the terminally stupid Americans who believe that Covid is a scam, the elections were rigged, immigrants are the cause of ALL of our problems, and voting rights should only belong to them.

What a load of political crybaby bullcrap. I guess you just can't help yourself.

It's kind of funny how many political references I see in this thread and others and they all come from the same side. If it was the other way around those posts would never see the light of day.

 

[1960Pats]

please run for President! You're balanced, intelligent, eloquent, thoughtful and sane. I voted for Biden, but only because he was the lesser of two evils. We've got to do better.

Ah yes, we need more political bs.

 

[1960Pats]

We can try but some folks just can't help themselves.

When Rodgers does come back he will be watched like a hawk in terms of the mask wearing and social distancing. Him telling MacAfee that the protocols don't apply to him should make for a very interesting last 8 games. I do wonder if this does push him to retire.

This kind of stand only compounds the problem Covid is what killed the vast majority of them. And it's still killing people today. Covid is fking nasty. Many who survive it have horrible a quality of life now. Thanks to the non vaxer idiots we are having another surge. Visit the hospitals and walk down the corridors of the negative pressure rooms and peer in on the people on vents and high flow oxygen. Its doubled in the last 2 weeks up here. Then tell them that they're dying with covid not by it. Rogers should tell them too

Good. At this point he's a freaking side show. Whatever brand attractiveness he has is taking hits because of his asinine pov and lies.

How Brady played 18 holes with this jackass is beyond me

No kidding. Brady's friendship with this guy is head scratching. I know they are both from CA and all but that's about it.

 

[1960Pats]

Anyway, back to Rodgers.
At first I didn't like the guy because of the way the mediots treated him as special. He clearly is not when you compare his accomplishments to other QBs.
Then as I got to know him I liked him even less.
And now, seeing his narcistic attitude concerning the safety of the players around him, he has dropped even further down on my list.
Pretty soon he'll be last.

And you've unloaded a fair share of political crybaby bullcrap from your "side" in multiple threads as well. Just practice what you preach and quit whining.

Yea I have no idea what their relationship is. I'm assuming they are friendly on some level as if they hated each other there is no way they'd play golf together.

I play a lot of golf and I really need to dislike someone not want to play because of that person in my 2some/4some

 

[Tunescribe]

funny how people in here are more upset with Rogers than they are with Henry ruggs who killed someone. this goes for the media too. I didn't see sports illustrated and the national media going after ruggs.... but they are crucifying Aaron Rodgers

What's REALLY funny is your wimpy predilection for drawing false equivalency to justify an unpopular minority opinion. Just say it: you stand firm with Aaron Rodgers' lies, deception and narcissism. Interesting how you find those character traits in public figures so appealing.

 

[sean10mm]

It's not fun to talk about someone roasting to death in a car accident, so people don't talk about it as much.

There's also not much to even say about it except that DUI homicide is *checks notes* bad.

A celebrity bragging about how they're a narcissistic conspiracy fruit loop who ate animal dewormer because a meathead MMA podcaster said it cures COVID is innately hilarious.

I mean the guy married a fan of Goop style magical "alternative medicine" like eating clay and sticking jade eggs in your vagina, so we really don't know where the rabbit hole ends with his nonsense!

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

So the same media that insists that a guy who wears a skirt is a girl, and will kill anyone who says otherwise, is affronted by Rodgers saying that he is immunized?

I've said before, Rodgers and the Packers clearly violated the COVID protocols and should be punished with the lost of a first rd pick and a 1 million dollar fine. But lets stop pretending that the media is honest in anyway, and doesn't push their preferred narrative.
