    The guy is a full-on loony toon. Just amazing how fucking stupid people can be.

    Awesome to see a high profile person providing fodder for the anti-vaxxers, though. I'm sure they'll all look at this objectively and realize a football player shouldn't be trusted for medical advice.

    Well, turns out our QB is an anti-vaccer, who is engaged to the same and sought out medical advice from fucking Joe Rogan. How do you think we are taking this? It fucking sucks. How can someone so god damn smart on the field be so dumb? I am not only pissed, I am astonished.

    This happens over and over again. Look no further than Ruggs and athletes like him who don't take advantage of their wealth to ensure they are never, ever driving after drinking. Athletes that sign huge multi-million dollar deals only to be broke a few years later. Ricky Henderson was probably the best base-stealer all time, and it wasn't just speed. You had to have a game savvy to know and understand pitchers moves and what counts it might be better to steal. Yet, he may be one of the dumbest people in the history of dumb people. Vince Young had an incredible on-field natural athletic acumen, but he did so poorly on the Wonderlic test he had to take it again. Kyrie Irving thinks the earth is flat. And, so on.

    because he’s the smartest guy in the QB room and thinks that means he’s the smartest guy in the virologist room. I feel so genuinely bad for all the packers fans who liked this guy before. Tots and pairs

    Yep, I'm one of those fans.

    The biggest WTF was that he almost made it as a full time guest host for Jeopardy!

    I keep hearing that he lied to everybody, but to me it sounds like the league knew. From ESPN:

    One thing that I'd be willing to bet money on...after this past Sunday's loss to KC, once Rodgers is recovered, they're gonna keep him until his knees wear out and his brain leaks out his ears. Whatever he may or may not have done in terms of dishonesty will be trumped by the fact that he's a Superbowl-calibre quarterback. Talent trumps all.

    Sure glad the front office built up a team to take advantage of his talents.

    The league knew, but he lied to the public about by saying he was "immunized" when asked if he had been vaccinated by reporters. The answer to that question was no or no comment.

    Yeah, I get that, I’m not defending him. And I guess in a semantics way he lied to the “owner” because the Packers are “owned by the fans.”

    I’m just saying, there’s a lot of people saying that he lied to the League, and the article I quoted makes it sound like the league was aware of his word-trickery, but also allowed him to do in-person postgame interviews while not wearing a mask.

    The league should absolutely be held accountable for not holding him to the rules they put in place before the season started. I don't care how big of a star he is.

    More bad behavior from the Raiders: Damon Arnette was released today. Last week a couple of civil cases were brought against him (Including an injury hit and run), this weekend a video surfaced of him threatening someone with a gun. I've recently overheard quite a few people in town voicing anti-Raider sentiments....parking problems, traffic problems, and now a rash of dangerous behavior by the players. It appears they may be quickly wearing out their welcome here.

    Do the Steelers trainers have the team on a moon pie and cheesecake diet? This may be the fattest professional football team I’ve ever seen. Big Ben is now bigger Ben and makes me feel like I’ve still got a few snaps left in me. And I’ve never seen a plus sized punter before. Put me in coach.
