Rodgers has every right to defend himself against these attacks.
I would LOVE to have Finley, Jennings, Rodgers and a few of the players that back AR put into a room, and let the losers say this crap in front of him instead of behind his back.

And as far as “moving on” from all this, it’s the off season and this is really all that’s going on right now. It at least gives us something to talk about.
If a person is bothered by it, they don’t have to open and read the threads. They can choose to ignore them.

He acted like it really should have mattered to Aaron, of course Aaron said yesterday he was making a joke.

Cowherd then goes on to say that he had heard from different players.
He mentioned the time Aaron called Favre grandpa the first time he met him.

Also, when Aaron was a rookie, Donald Driver took Aaron aside and told him to tone it down in meetings after Aaron would sit up front and try to answer every question.

Hey boys, HE WAS A ROOKIE, they do stupid things sometimes.

Cowherd also mentioned Jeff Saturday.
He was with The Packers for a year?

Cowherd also said he was surprised Aaron didn't use a more reputable sportswriter to get his message out.

I think Aaron did just fine getting his message out.
I hope when the time comes, in about 4 years, James Jones and Jordy get into The Packer hall of fame together and Greg Jennings can cry some more.
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Jennings knows how to call Rodgers as well. He could have just as easily called him if he was so hurt.
But of course then he wouldn’t be able to whine to anyone who will listen to him. He’d have to give up the ONLY reason any “news” person will give him the time of day.

The story is garbage. Greg Jennings and Jermichael Finley lack credibility. Didn’t the Packers offer Jennings a contract after 2012? He declined and went with Minnesota. Why offer him a contract if Aaron wants him gone? Seriously, this is sour grapes if ever there were any.

Lastly, perhaps this article will awake the sleeping giant.... I want to see Rodgers with a chip on his shoulder. Best way to shut up critics is win.

I believe the story goes like this:
Grog was offered an extension while in the last year of his contract. He declined thinking he was worth more. He ended up taking LESS to play for MN because it turns out he wasn't worth more and the packers offer was no longer on the table. Assuming the Packers decided his sister was just too much of a
BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

It's actually, PFT, not PFF 😛 But, yes, any bad press on the Packers, Vikings fan Mike Florio picks it up and runs like hell with it. Then will cite his own articles often times too. Annoying, but smart tactic for "clicks" lol.

The only way I would think someone knows what was said on that call is if they were in the room and the call was on speaker phone. Otherwise, the source would have to be Mark Murphy himself, unless Aaron Rodgers somehow spoke up?

Ah, yeah. So used to typing PFF that I just skimmed over it multiple times.


Dunne should be DONE.
Just another clown trying to make a name for himself.
And how can ANYONE take Finley seriously? A guy that complained that Aaron Rodgers expected him to know his JOB?

Dozens of guys say everything was fine. Two maybe 3 well known shit talkers say otherwise. The media goes with what the idiots say and drag people and teams through the mud, just for some clicks. Just another example of the pile of trash our society has become.

Whether or not one agrees with what Jennings or Finley have to say, I don't think it's fair to characterize them as talking behind Rodgers' back. They are putting their names to their words. If anything, it's the anonymous sources who are talking behind Rodgers' back.

If what I'm saying doesn't make sense to you, ask yourself this: are the players defending Rodgers talking behind his back?

Very true. "Yellow journalism" as a term has been around since the 19th century and in practice long before then. There are dozens of old B&W movies from the 30's and 40's poking fun at the crass NYC newspapers who would say anything and write anything just to sell a newspaper. Back then newspapers had multiple editions every day.

beast (4h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?
Martha Careful (8h) : meh
Zero2Cool (13h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026
Zero2Cool (13h) : It's so awesome.
Zero2Cool (13h) : new site fan shout post fast
wpr (16h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.
wpr (16h) : Only 4
wpr (16h) : Only 4
Zero2Cool (19h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
dfosterf (19h) : 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.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
