In ways Digs.. I agree.

But why even drawn that type of attention.. screw it, it is over.

Me personally, I would be pissed if I was Rodgers.. ask me about me or my team.. Brett is Brett.. if you don't have any other question besides Brett. interview over.

I am not saying he handled it poorly.. but if he doesn't curtain the freaking press from asking the questions.. it will never end.

Bottom line.. we don't need any distractions that have a first name of Brett this offseason. Not the team and certainly not the fan base.

Well Rodgers did avoid some of the questions. It was obvious that the interview was going to be about Brett, and had Rodgers cut it off right away, you know the media would spin it someway to make Rodgers look bad.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

I'm with DH. Hating on Favre at this point is silly.

And Aaron's either going to have to deal with the questions or not give interviews - it's not his fault Irvin brought it up, and I think he handled the question well. Succinct answers and honest.

Seems to me that Packers brass want him doing the interviews, so maybe we should all realize that isn't easy and cut him some slack.

Maybe Rodgers likes the attention? Maybe he's so confident in his abilities and his talent that he's not worried about what is said because he feels he's going to be better for the Packers than Favre would have been if he had stuck around 2-3 more years?

I don't really know, I've never been in those shoes, just trying to think of other possibilities.

btw, wssp out of milwaukee...Steve "sparky" mentioned our one and very own Trip on the air..

Trip told Steve about the Christopher Foppiano story and how much Brett meant to the boy..

Steve said he feels bad for guys like Trip cuz they have Brett on such a high pedestal and to have something like this show that Brett is selfish must hurt them

that isnt word for word, but that was the general idea I got from what Steve was saying

Turns out Brett did call him back, but Brett asked that Aaron not tell anyone. Aaron screwed up by even mentioning that he called Brett. Brett's not happy about it because he wanted it behind closed doors. Brett's still ticked at the Packers, but maintains his friendship with Aaron.

Kind of like your father listening to country then when hanging out with the 'guys' an a country song comes on and dad says 'turn that shit off' and you say 'but dad you like country'. Don't do that, it's not good.

    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
