I just became aware of this name, today. I had no idea all the gossip pages and rumors that circle around this guy and his involvement with Aaron Rodgers.

I'm not going to post links, and get too deeply into the nature of articles but it left me with a question that I think is valid.

If the "back out" rumor is true and eventually this guy who is supposedly emotionally blackmailing Aaron eventually comes forward with some info...How do you think this is going to affect Aaron Rodgers as QB of the Green Bay Packers?

As I pondered this question, I couldn't help but wonder if, and I know it's an if, any of this kind of stuff has anything in the world to do with Greene and Hilgenberg's departures? What kind of dynamic is in place if this stuff is true? Some guys ain't gonna handle that well at all.

Are you talking about the stuff from like 6 months ago?

Yes... I knew about the "rumors" and obviously the denial... I did not know this supposed other guy's name nor do I recall hearing Rodgers had agreed to come out but backed out which sent this supposed interest of his over the edge with rage.

Can you even imagine what that would look like if there's legs to the rumor? A lot of men aren't going to handle that very well. It makes me go back and look at guys (coaches and players) who left and why they may have left. I reinterpret their comments and actions through the filter of what if this had something to do with it? Greg Jennings comes to mind. A supposed strong Christian family man. Although, if this is true he did a great job of keeping quiet about it because his idiot sister would've let the cat out the bag had she known.

Just trying to get my mind around what this would mean for Rodgers as a player and the effect it would have on the organization. Aikman had the same kind of stuff swirling about him so it's not like this is some new ground, but I don't recall Troy living with a guy he met at a bar and having that guy take veiled shots about the nature of their relationship on Twitter. Ah, there was no twitter back then.

When a good looking guy is in his 30's and unmarried, that is always the rumor. I have four daughters and I get the same treatment from people. It's either I'm Gay, or there is something wrong with me. Trust me, it is the latter. 😉

Truthfully, when the rumors came out, I was hoping they were true. After the Brett Favre deal, there is no one better to handle being a NFL elite player and being homosexual as Aaron Rodgers could and would handle it.

Hehe. I'm not good-looking or in my 30s and I've been getting this for decades. I remember getting together with the cousins/grandparents etc. one year for Christmas, and having my grandfather's third wife blurt out to my mother (she had a hearing loss that occasionally led to excessive volume when she had her hearing aid turned off), "So, Amy, is Wade gay?" Mother said, "Who knows?"

ROFL.

I really could care less if any Packer is or was.

What I care about is how many years it will take Rodgers to own all of the records of Pretty Boys Brady and Manning.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

You know... It makes me wonder if Aaron's fall in the draft was related to this issue? So weird a guy touted as a potential number 1 overall fell that far and was taken by a GM with the same type of rumors associated with him.

It is not often you have a Leaf/Manning scenario or RGIII/Luck where the other guy who isn't #1 isn't snapped up immediately. I do recall that day that it set up where once he got past Tampa, I believe, there wasn't a QB needy team, but you get into the whole BPA thing and we weren't necessarily QB needy either that we knew of for sure.

There would be no shock if Aaron came out and admitted this was true, other than the fact he's so high profile.

It'll sicken me to see people praising him for coming out if he ever does. I'm incredibly bothered when people are hailed for admitting they're gay. Nobody hails anyone for being heterosexual. If he's gay, I hope he waits until his playing days are over. Going to google around to see if there's any comments he's made on athletes who've come out as gay as Aaron seems to be very opinionated on various subjects.

I could care less if Rodgers is gay. There's not a team in the league that wouldn't want him as their QB. And if he is gay, the right thing to do would be to come out and do it proudly. America is accepting that lifestyle more and more, except for dumbasses like those relics Texas and Gunny! Assholes like those guys will never accept anything but their own narrow minded visions of the world.

Yes, because no one has ever denied someone rights for being heterosexual. The two are not comparable.

I find it utterly absurd to suggest to someone, man or a woman, that he or she should not be free to introduce their significant other simply because their partner has the wrong dangly bits between his or her legs. And that's exactly what silence on the matter requires.

Players show up at events--social, charitable, etc.--with their wives and girlfriends all the time. Their families go to games. Heterosexual players have all the freedom to be public about who is a part of their life. Why should homosexual players not be free to have the same?

Now, if the player and his partner want to be quiet on the matter, that's their prerogative. They can make that choice, but not someone else.

If you don't want to see others applaud gays for coming out, then don't give them a reason to applaud. Don't tell gays they should keep it to themselves, because it truly isn't your business.
