Obviously, cancer has had an impact in Florio's life. That is the first thing I get out of reading his post.
However, he is a journalist now affiliated with NBC. He needs to take account for his actions even if he is sensitive about a particularly issue. The fact that he compares Packer fans defending Rodgers to Falcon fans defending Vick for dog fighting and Steeler fans to defending Roethlisberger for alleged rape is not fair. That is apples and oranges.
Personally, I think Florio saw an opportunity to jump on someone who is the new golden-boy of the NFL, as he puts it. When it came to fruition that his opinion wasnt supported by all the facts, he should have given a more responsible response on what he presented. Instead, he does not blink an eye. Somewhat admirable because hes standing for his convictions, but also hypocritical for someone who often attacks others for not accepting responsibility or owning up to what they say.
