    Sure, the Steelers lost but it was one of the more entertaining SBs. Two heavy weights going at it, doesn't get any better.

    Everyone that knows me Knows I freaking hate politics, and I mean that seriously, both sides. I laugh at people following either side blindly.
    Although we all know that Rodgers was destroyed across the media for saying he didn't believe in getting the shots, and many people loved seeing him getting rolled for it, but now those same people are saying why is he talking, are you serious???
    You can't call a man a murderer, and every bad thing under the sun, and expect him not to talk back when it could be that everyone who attacked him could be wrong.
    Again Im not politically motivated either way, but what Im hearing from some is that it was OK to make fun, and down Rodgers then, but its not OK for him to comeback against it now??? Politics be dang, if people attacked you for what you thought, no matter what it was, if later it looks like You maybe correct what do you expect??

    Yep! All politics is BS and I'm glad Rogers doesn't give a **** about speaking his mind.

    Pretty sure AR was dragged for lying about being vaccinated. He said he was immunized and GB was fined 300K and AR was fined 14.5K.

    The reason some folk hated his rant was because no one asked him about Fauci.

    He did Jeopardy because he needs to be seen as an intellectual that thinks on another level. It's literally oozing out of him when he's on any of these shows. He'd never try to do what Romo does, because it feels like he needs to be seen as the smooth cool guy that's smarter than everyone in the room and that doesn't make it on screen in that line of work.

    Not really. A reporter asked if he was vaccinated and he said yes.. but he wasn’t. He later admitted he regretted his answer.

    If you want to be exact:

    He said "I've been immunized".

    Which was not correct either if you look at the actual definition of Immunization. It's just another instance of him trying to lean on his "I'm so smart, smarter than you" smugness he seems to want to portray.

    But in essence what you said is correct.

    Or he was simply trying to avoid scrutiny or media frenzy because of the personal decision he made.

    I mean, the USA has been through this a few times in its history, ref. 1950s, or late 1600s.

    He lied..

    He admitted he regretted using that phrasing to get around the fact that he didn’t get vaccinated.

    Its like if someone asked you if you refilled the car with gas and you said “yes, I got fuel” but you got used oil from the back of a restaurant.

    It really is excellent, whether you figure out the twist halfway through like I did or don't get it until the detective flips out. The script and performances were excellent.

    As referenced in the OP and other posts, this is the same guy who wanted to replace Alex Trebek on Jeopardy! For all his talk of wanting to disappear from public life, this is a guy who always seemed to need people telling him he's the prettiest girl at the dance. I wouldn't be shocked either way. Maybe reconciling with his family is a step toward building a more private life for himself. Maybe not.

    Posting a tweet by a conservative political podcaster proves our point about AR being an azz for not keeping it up on football when asked.

    Isn't that why people lie? To avoid grief of some type?

    ****ting on BSPN has nothing to do with being political. They are are a ****ty, useless, F grade channel that will soon be owned by the NFL once those cowards at Disney sink it to oblivion for a better return.

    I didn’t have a clue who this ***** is who posted it. I was posting Aaron Rodgers ****ting on ESPN. Maybe you should stop trying to politicize everything about him.

    I just figure with the way he has shielded his wife from the media, not sure if there has even been a picture of her, that he may not want to open her up to that kind of scrutiny. If he disappears, she’ll never be subjected to that.
