I'm saying I dislike his insincere persona, I hate his gunslinger mentality, and I loathe the way the media slobbers over him. When I have the patience to watch a game in which he is playing, I usually keep it on mute. Hell, I muted games even when he played for the Packers.

I get most of my entertainment out of the guy when he fucks up, because it's so predictable. Every objective analysis that's ever been made has shown that when the game is on the line, he is over twice as likely to lose the game as to win it. Particularly when the game actually matters, he is liable to get rattled and completely blow it, as he himself has admitted.

Aaron Rodgers, by contrast, is the epitome of poise and self-possession. He may not be as entertaining with his more careful style, but I'd be willing to bet a lot of money that because he protects the ball so well, he will win far more "clutch" games over the course of his career than Favre ever could have dreamed of winning, and in the end, wins are what matter to me. Not some lone renegade "just trying to make a play" and fucking it up for everyone.

Football is a team sport. I don't want my quarterback to be an individual, to stand out from the rest of the team as "entertaining." I want him to be a piece of the puzzle, the leader on a team that's winning games when it actually matters. I want to be entertained with team success, not individual on-the-field heroics or off-the-field histrionics. Aaron Rodgers isn't his own man. He doesn't stand alone. He is part of a Green Bay Packers team that is incredibly entertaining to watch. He never tries to steal the spotlight from his fellow players; in fact, he does everything he can to deflect attention to them. And that's what I love about him.

You know what, easiest way to settle this is to wait and see. If Rodgers wins multiple Super Bowls, you were right, if not, I was right. Let's re-convene in 15 years.

I win either way, if Packers win multiple SBs, I'm happy and if they don't, I win this argument, lol.

You couldn't edit your original post twice instead of posting three times in a row, two of which in a 90 second span? 😉
