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?

Mucky Tundra (1h) : Rude!

beast (2h) : Martha? 😋

Zero2Cool (6h) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (8h) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (10h) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!
