This time of year is slow. So if there is no real “news”, people will make things up,
EXAMPLE : the new coach says “I haven’t really been able to get ahold of Aaron” (as it’s the off season, and the players have to get things done that they don’t have time to do during the season) and it gets turned into “oh my god!!! Aaron is avoiding the new coach!!! He already HATES the guy! Our season is DOOMED already!!!”
See how easy that was???

Maybe the question was "Do you think Rodgers needs to embrace change?" and he responded back "Aaron needs to embrace change, just like all of us".

I just don't know what was asked, or the full response so to go off my rails on someone? I just can't do that.

I just cannot understand where any of this is coming from. It's like you want him to say "no comment" every time he's asked a question. Do you even know what question he was responding to? Do you know the full text?

Yes he should "no comment".

He is the CEO, which in Green Bay is equivelant to the owner, he hired Gute, who hired Lefluer.

Go back to being CEO and stay out of their business of putting the team together.

Aaron Rodgers knows what he has to do.

What he doesn't need is the CEO telling the world the obvious,

Bullshit statements like that only add fuel to the fire that Aaron is still disgruntled and he is going to come to camp with his own agenda.

I haven't heard it on any podcast. If you're talking about podcasts from like totalpackers or cheeseheadtv, those are more for entertainment, not reporting the news.

Also, if its a violation, why can't you go with the thinking that Aaron knew it was a violation and thus ignored the calls? Why do you gotta take the asshole route about it?

That said, I don't think it's a violation because everyone knows that Matt and Aaron have spoke and Brian has spoken with Aaron. Hell, they have a players committee that was talking with management.

But hey, let's just stick with the narrative of blasting the QB because that's so culture.

Still. I regard it as an open question to what degree Aaron is douchebagging the team. Just a little bit more evidence to weigh.

If Murphy is telling Aaron to get down with Le Fleur, I regard that as a good sign.

If he goes “no comment” then people will make up what they THINK that means. And it will be “he’s a douche! Too big to answer the question! There MUST be some big thing going on, must be infighting behind the scenes! Our season is DOOMED!!!”

If it's in all these podcasts then why isn't there anything written about it? It's not like they have anything else to write about. I've never once read that Matt has been trying to get a hold of Aaron, and I have never once read that Aaron gas been ignoring Matt's attempts to speak with him. Yet, here it is spewed about as if its fact.

BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

I'd like to see a link to which specific podcasts this was mentioned on because I haven't heard anything about it.

Fan Shout

Zero2Cool (39m) : Packers were not selected for the 2025 Hall of Fame game.

dfosterf (3h) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

Zero2Cool (4h) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (5h) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (5h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (5h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (7h) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (17h) : don't care

Zero2Cool (22h) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (22-Apr) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (22-Apr) : now 3

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?

beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

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

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
