I'll be glad when this is all over.
finally listening to the Pat McAffery show, and his lead in is basically what I've been saying here, lack of weapons stands out, we need to treat Love better.

This is true. I actually do like ARod, I think he's unique and I appreciate his focus on mental health a lot. I think he raises awareness around the topic and it's a shame that people make fun of him for it because his methods are unique.JKB wrote: ↑16 Mar 2023 07:18AR is a politician albeit an incredibly wealthy oneYoHoChecko wrote: ↑15 Mar 2023 12:36Onto the "wish list" report

BUT.....yesterday was 100% his spin on it, I'm sure the Packers FO have a different spin, and as always, the truth lies somewhere in the middle.
I watched it all. He literally didn't say anything about weapons, much less a lack thereof, and also confirmed he would vouch for them if they are thinking of signing Lazard and Cobb.

Never once mentioned anything about lack of weapons or not signing/drafting enough talent. Almost unfathomable how that could be read into anything he said.

To be fair, Rodgers did somewhat inadvertently tell both sides of the story by way of contradicting himself. So no need for the team to clear things up. Plenty of people, including AJ Hawk, caught the discrepancies and pointed them out.Madcity_matt wrote: ↑16 Mar 2023 08:29This.

If you felt throughout the season that this was the end, you felt like they were ready to move on, and you were still leaning 90% toward retirement a month after the season… then you claim they were ready to welcome you back until something shifted a month after the season…
welp I think we see where the spin is
Let's also not forget that in Rodgers's first couple appearances on the McAfee show after our Week 18 loss, he talked about continuing to play in words not-so-subtly implying that it could be for a team other than Green Bay, before his interview yesterday acting like he did not fathom playing elsewhere before sensing a tone shift towards him from the mgmt.

Rodgers didn't do the lead in, Pat McAffery did, and his first line was lack of offensive weapons, maybe you should do what you preach to me, and actually read.
I really wish Pat would have his brother Christian guest host the show every once in a while.Yoop wrote: ↑16 Mar 2023 09:02Rodgers didn't do the lead in, Pat McAffery did, and his first line was lack of offensive weapons, maybe you should do what you preach to me, and actually read.

He brought up twice the lack of transparancy, players just like people have a lot of mixed emotions going through there head, should I do this or that, it was up to the organization to be clear, he may have felt he was done as a Packer, Detroit being his last game, but thats not his call, and he has constantly said he wanted to retire as a Packer, now maybe the FO thought he might retire and solve this issue, but it was up to them to be clear, and they weren't.YoHoChecko wrote: ↑16 Mar 2023 08:37To be fair, Rodgers did somewhat inadvertently tell both sides of the story by way of contradicting himself.

So Labrev, someone who actually watches Aaron Rodgers Tuesdays, talks about inconsistencies in Rodgers language over the course of the year. Then you barge in and tell Labrev he isn't telling the whole story and should actually READ something before shouting...
and then one post later admit, "I rarely watch the show"
there ear candy for people that multi task, I suppose if I sat in a school room full of toddlers all day, I'd have a set of apple ear buds listening to the Pat McAffery show
kind of funny Rodgers slipped into the hobbit hole at 90% retirement, but the Packers werent supposed to do anything with that "vibe" and start to look to the future.

The media is having a field day because Rodgers called them out. One of the things I liked about the interview.
Of course the media is going to spin it in their own direction. Jackals.
