seriously Waldo what good comes from airing dirty laundry in public? not a damn thing, and what convinces you that Rodgers is telling players who would naturally support him to do so with the media? when has Rodgers ever given the impression that he has done that stuff in the past?

For that matter, what good comes from airing clean laundry in public?

freshness, I use to air dry clean laundry as much as possible, tighty whitey's an all nothing like line dried sheets

That's only because they hadn't invented the washing machine and dryer yet. Right Yoop?

haaaa, I do date back to the popularity of the ringer washer even though my mom had auto's she loved that big ringer (roller to ring out the water) machine for rugs and other really heavy stuff, the good ol days

Wow

I don't buy it. But maybe. Kind of tired of it though so if that's what happens then so be it.

What if he retires and then unretires week 8? Does he still get fined? Still get paid for season?

He'd get half pay. No fine because he "retired" before the fines went into place.

Interesting. Would be a good financial move.

Karen Rodgers

lmao, hadn't seen that one yet

Not saying he doesn’t have a reason to be upset, but if he ditches his teammates and coaches like that, I’ll lose so much, if not all, respect for him.


Still no clue what this is about or what the packers could do to right their wrongs. But seems like they have tried and offered him money and security with no dice, would like to see something, anything, from Aaron already on what his beef is or what he wants.


Trade him Chicago next year, one place we know he’d be guaranteed not to have success. Get a bunch of top 10 picks there as Karen reverts to leading the nfl in
Ints each year he’s there.

If he unretires at week 8, then he plays in week 9 without practice and hopes that his OL teammates don't bear a grudge. (Perhaps.)

People thinking his teammates don't support him is so silly. Players would love the fact he is standing up to management - they are players he is a player.

The oline will welcome him back with open arms

Lol you are all the Karens and you all complain because he isn't following social authority.

The guy is free as a bird. The balls on the guy if he retires.

I would say the Packers might fight that. They might also ask for a portion of the bonus money they paid him back. Figure 2 years $11.5 million. Divide by 32, $2.875 million back for those 8 games. It would only be fair.

If he retires, he owes the Packer $23 million. So not sure how this would be a "good financial move."

So he retires start of training camp then unretires once season starts or prior to round 8 he owes 23million?

Dunno. Couldn't find any examples of anyone unretiring mid-season, nor any official detailed retirement rules. CBA and standard player contracts are weirdly silent on the issue.

It's unlikely he'd get to keep all of the "guarantees". Otherwise players could use a retire-unretire loophole to play as few games as possible every year. Contract disagreements usually go to binding arbitration.

One sure thing: since base salary is a game-by-game salary, AR would lose 1/16th of his 14.7M base salary per game missed.

He would still lose a lot of money in roster bonus, signing bonus, etc. for 2021.

The Packers could go after Rodgers to get that money back if they choose. There is discussion if they actually would or not.
