Covid can't sue you . . . but alluding to someone being a pedophile puts you into real jeopardy of getting a lawsuit.
What are the chances that within five years of retirement Rodgers has gone full Schilling on us?

There's a ton of money to be made off of selling fabricated bullshit to the minimally exceptional.

It was repeating bullshit about the Covid vaccines that was the last straw. He believes they're useless. That's how stupid Rogers is.

The last straw in regards to him being on the show is calling Jimmy Kimmel a pedophile because he was unable to deal with the fact that Kimmel made fun of him. I'm not much of a fan of Kimmel, but his analysis of Rodgers the other day is show was spot on.

At that time he said Kimmel was spreading disinformation because he pushed the vaccines and Rogers said the vaccines were useless, he said that was a proven fact. Pushing that kind of bullshit Disney said no more.

I saw what he said regarding Kimmel on the show yesterday, but didn't see what he said about vaccines yesterday, and I'm not gonna watch his like hour and a half interview. But he's a well known dip shit on this issue. He called put Travis Kelce for doing a Pfizer commercial, and then Kelce called him out for playing for the team owned by the Johnson family, as in the family that also owns Johnson and Johnson ('a family company')... which of course Rodgers had no coherent response for. He just said something like, 'Let's have a vaccine debate.'

He just said something like, 'Let's have a vaccine debate.' Video at the link. -------- Aaron Rodgers Goes on Rant About Vaccines on Pat McAfee’s Show: ‘I Just Wanna F*cking Move On!’ Ahmad Austin Jr.Jan 9th, 2024, 4:46 pm While ranting about the Covid-19 vaccine, New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers suggested he was tired of ranting about the Covid-19 vaccine. During Rodgers’ Tuesday appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, the QB addressed the backlash stemming from his comments on Jimmy Kimmel. Rodgers implied Kimmel’s name would be listed among the associates of late financier Jeffrey Epstein, sparking a media frenzy and even the threat of legal action by Kimmel. Many interpreted the comments as Rodgers accusing Kimmel of being a pedophile, but he flatly denied it on Tuesday. After clearing the air on the Kimmel situation, Rodgers then began ranting about the Covid-19 vaccine on the sports talk show. He cited “dozens of studies” that he claimed prove his argument that masking and getting vaccinated were ineffective against the coronavirus. Rodgers then claimed there was a “financial incentive” that former Chief Medical Advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci had to push vaccines on the public. He also praised Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for his book on Fauci titled The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health. The book has been met with a great deal of criticism for blatant misinformation. “I don’t know why more people aren’t upset with that,” Rodgers said after claiming the vaccine was rushed for financial gain. “Everybody who lost people to Covid, everybody who dealt with the draconian measures — and that’s my last point. Then, I just want to fucking move on.” After expressing his desire to move on, Rodgers continued talking about the vaccine and quarantine measures for several more minutes. www.mediaite.com/tv/aaron-rodgers-goes-on-rant-about-vaccines-on-pat-mcafees-show-i-just-wanna-fcking-move-on/

More. ------------------------------- Did Aaron Rodgers apologize for insinuating that Jimmy Kimmel was on the Epstein list? He did not. Aaron Rodgers, instead, denied saying any such thing. Rodgers revisited the context of their feud, saying that it went back to the pandemic and Kimmel’s jokes about vaccine skeptics. Rodgers claimed that Kimmel dissed ivermectin, which Rodgers continues to insist is an effective treatment for COVID, and that Kimmel gave a platform to Dr. Anthony Fauci, the biggest “spreader of misinformation” on the planet. www.pajiba.com/web_culture/aaron-rodgers-addresses-the-jimmy-kimmel-situation-on-the-pat-mcafee-show.php

Even more. ---------------------- Pat McAfee-Aaron Rodgers relationship raises questions ESPN will have to answer Too many questions and not enough clear-cut answers for the Worldwide Leader in Sports By Michael Grant on 10/16/2023 Being a maverick has made Pat McAfee extremely wealthy. He’ll make more money with ESPN than he did as a punter in the NFL. Of course, there is a price to be paid. Once you’re part of the sports media establishment it becomes more challenging to remain an independent and unfiltered voice. Dan Le Batard found this out the hard way as his repeated clashes with management in Bristol contributed to his departure. McAfee hasn’t run into major trouble yet, but his relationship with Aaron Rodgers raises questions that The Worldwide Leader in Sports will have to deal with eventually. Last week, the New York Post‘s Andrew Marchand reported that The Pat McAfee Show pays Rodgers for his appearances. McAfee confirmed that “Aaron has made over $1,000,000 with us, for sure.” Paying athletes and coaches for media appearances is not new. It’s most common in radio and podcasts, such New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone’s deal with Jomboy Media. However, the practice is considered a breach of journalistic ethics, particularly in the old-school, newspaper world. And usually, paid appearances are a little more obvious. In Rodgers’ case, it wasn’t. We don’t know how long the quarterback has been a paid guest. McAfee is not a journalist, so he might not even be aware of the potential problems this creates. And even if he is aware, as someone who sees himself as an outsider, he likely doesn’t care. It’s a new media age. But rest assured, ESPN is monitoring this situation or at least the public reaction. An ESPN talent having someone on their platform who routinely spews anti-vaccine misinformation is troubling. As an individual, Rodgers can say what he wants, but it becomes problematic when he continues to do so with virtually no pushback. What makes this increasingly bizarre is that Rodgers keeps bringing up this topic. There are no more workplace vaccine mandates. You no longer need proof of vaccination to go to concerts or restaurants. So why is Rodgers asking about a potential debate between himself, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Travis Kelce, and Dr. Anthony Fauci? And why should he care that Kelce is appearing in ads for vaccines? ESPN, which is notoriously sensitive to criticism, must have concerns. How far is it willing to let a paid guest espouse controversial opinions—even one who moves the ratings needle as strongly as Rodgers? There is a credibility issue at stake. In light of last week’s revelation, it’s fair to speculate regarding some type of arrangement, explicit or implicit. Rodgers comes on the McAfee show. McAfee agrees not to push back on Rodgers. There’s a reason why reputable journalists don’t pay for interviews. It’s to avoid even the appearance of a conflict of interest. ESPN has several conflicts of interest with its league broadcast partners. They have so many financial deals, and you have to wonder how many paid guests are on the payroll. How common is this practice with ESPN? However, the McAfee-Rodgers relationship might get to a point where it’s no longer worth the headache. This also brings up something else to ponder. The Rodgers-McAfee wouldn’t be such a topic of discussion if the financial details weren’t leaked. Who revealed this information to Marchand? And was the intention to harm McAfee, Rodgers, or both? Usually, leaks come from someone who stands to benefit. In the Marchand story, Rodgers, McAfee, and ESPN don’t look good. We may never get a definitive answer to that mystery. There are so many questions and too few answers. What is clear: ESPN must confront these questions soon for the sake of credibility. awfulannouncing.com/espn/the-pat-mcafee-and-aaron-rodgers-relationship-raises-questions-espn-eventually-will-have-to-deal-with.html

Except that there are very clear suggestions to the contrary. Like McAfee himself saying that he made the decision to cut Rodgers from the show: NY Post: Pat McAfee made call to cut Aaron Rodgers’ appearances on ESPN show"The Post’s Andrew Marchand reported earlier that Rodgers had been slated to appear on the program through the Super Bowl and has now confirmed that McAfee made the call to cut the collaboration off early." Pretty clear, and in no uncertain terms; Rodgers was cut from the show for spouting off his bullshit.

I genuinely think he needs help. Like, get checked for CTE or something. He didn't used to be like this and its become very alarming. His appearances on McAfee used to be very interesting and talk football but ever since the covid controversy he can't seem to shut up about it or the vaccines.
I just want to be able to enjoy watching him play football and not have to give the Chrissy Teigen award show face meme every Tuesday. I stopped watching a while ago because of this but you can't avoid hearing about the bullshit.
Despite not being part of the MAGA cult he gets lumped in with a few of them for sounding like an idiot. He just needs to either get help or at the least take a long break from the spotlight and focus on football.

He'll be taking horse tranquilizers for cancer one day & blame Obama. I think he called out Kimmel for going on a diatribe... Jimmy, a Disney employee, being called out by Rodgers being paid by Disney, $ million bucks to sit on a couch in his pyjamas, for his own diatribes, is the richest thing ever.
