Don't see any problem at all. Some random idiot challenges his professionalism for a stupid reason which got published. That is a pretty offensive thing for someone who takes their work seriously. Thought the response was funny and I prefer stuff like that over ignoring it or some robot pc response

Much to do about nothing. Moving on.

If you put your opinion out there, you should be willing to take the criticism.
Quite frankly, I agree with Rodgers. I mean, if you can gain a free 5 yards, or maybe even a FREE SHOT down field, how can you find fault with that?
It keeps the defense off balance, and I see that as a HUGE positive!
I think whoever belittled Aaron for that must be either a Vikings or Bears fan.

Isn't the idea to use your brain as well as your physical attributes to win the game?

It is yet one more example of his overall diva attitude, which has been referenced by his former WRs in the past, as well as others. We arguably saw it last year when he got his yes-man calling plays, which ended badly, then also the past two seasons we've seen him pouting and getting into it with his HC.

I personally would like Aaron to dial it back and put the team before his statistics and ego. But what do I know? [horseow]

A bunch of wimps. So the man has an opinion and the man shared it publicly. Bitch when you get "robot" responses. Bitch when you get genuine responses. Quit bitching already and just find some enjoyment out of the small things.

Nerd, I don't disagree with what you said. If Aaron had chose to answer your way I would be fine with it. But I don't have any problem with the way he answered either. From my point of view it is a stupid comment from a fan. I'm sure there are many players and coaches that would answer your way and many that would answer Aaron's. Belichek would probably say it doesn't even deserve and answer. To each his own.

So let me get this straight.... Fans like us can criticize players' character on Twitter and forums like this and it's okay. However, Rodgers (just another person like everyone else) can't? Makes zero sense....

It's sad we live in an age where anything said by a player that isn't 100% politically correct or by the book is immediately found offensive to some people...

Yeah I know right? What was he thinking?

Players can't have opinions unless they are political and completely agree with ME! (whoever the "me" is.)
Players can't call out fans after all we the people pay their boated salaries and they have to stand there and take whatever we fling at them.
Players can't have lives outside of what little we see of them. We know their names so they should recognize us for the great intellectual geniuses we are and buy us non fat soy lattes whenever they see us walking down the street.

Do you have the right to? Yes, assuming your company doesn't have a policy against said things that you signed a contract on.

SHOULD you, and are you being dumb if you're not mindful of when and how you're exercising your right?

Zero2Cool (5h) : I feel similar about person and product/service.

beast (17-May) : Not sure why a players views reflect on GB... instead of simply on the player

Martha Careful (17-May) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity

Zero2Cool (16-May) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.

CanPackFan (16-May) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : I know we moved on. That tidbit just makes me a touch happier.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
