Or he is just a dick. I know there are two sides of every story but this article doesn't paint Rodgers in a very good light.
"One source, who was close to Rodgers for years but is among the many who have since been cut off by Rodgers entirely, said the quarterback has not spoken to his family since December 2014. Don’t feel too bad, J-Mike. Immediate family members don’t even have his cellphone number. When Mom and Dad sent Christmas presents to the quarterback and his girlfriend that year, the source said, those gifts were mailed back in February. He was set to be the groomsman in the wedding of one of his closest friends, the source said, and texted the day before he couldn’t attend.
He didn’t attend his grandfather’s funeral — the same grandfather he once called before every game. He fired a business manager he’s known since high school. The family was told they were no longer welcome in Green Bay. If Dad wants to attend a game now, he buys tickets on StubHub or goes through another player’s family."
Aaron Rodgers - (
New Window )
The Giants article at the top of this board talks about the two Brothers who owned the Giants not speaking to each other for 10+ years.
Funny things happen within families.
Greg Jennings has basically said that while he thinks Rodgers is better than Favre, he doesn't believe Rodgers comes close to Favre as a locker room general/leader.
He's still the best talent I've ever seen at the position.
They support the other son going on reality dating shows to find a woman but are picky with Aaron rodger's choices?
I'd pay good $$$ to be whipped by Olivia Munn
I agree!!!!
It gave me the impression that he's a real fucking dick head. Arrogant, narcissistic, and easily insulted. I wouldn't be surprised if Rodgers took offense to a Munn based argument that could have been resolved otherwise but his ego wouldn't wouldn't allow.
The Issue of Favre's Personal Locker - ( New Window )
Still doesnt seem like a reason to skip out on your grandfather's funeral or tell a friend you cant be in his wedding party the day before the wedding. If the particulars are true it points to a problem with Rodgers himself.
Eh, depends on the quality of the family and friends. I'd alienate my mother-in-law even if it mean hanging out with Lena Dunham.
I haven't respected Rodgers, McCarthy or Matthews since. Fuck those guys.
I thought I was the only won. Crazy as it may be, there is something about his demeanor I do not like. He is the one guy in the league I always root against.
Plus, his playing up of the calf injury in the playoffs a few years ago was absurd. Limping on the field. Eli has been beaten to a pulp and played with injuries and you never see him giving himself a built in excuse.
I do not know about his personal life, and I do not really care, but it is cold to shun family and friends like that. Sending gift back? Damn.
this is one area where eli has AR beat hands down. eli's got a cute wife and is still close with his family and crew.
Personally I root hard against them. Yes, as a bitter 90s Giants fan. Every team and their fans should have to endure a trainwreck decade every so often. I'm glad Kaepernick bitchslappd them twice in the post-season and I hope they keep losing.
Moondwg: thanks for the boner.

I'm not so sure everyone agrees that Favre was such a locker room leader....

Maybe, though I have played golf on a few occasions with a couple of long time employees of the Packers. They speak glowingly of Favre. Did not characterize him as a prima donna and their description of him is quite the opposite of a guy full of himself or not in the trenches with his teammates and well-like by them.
Moondwg: thanks for the boner.
I'm glad you are finally saying this in public and not just texting me.
Victory lap.
My work is done here.
Has nice jugs but man oh man she looks like such a raging bitch (big surprise)
Yes. And introduce the fact that the guy has money and fame, and it's easy to imagine that dealing with some people in the family is difficult for him.
You need to meet some more people then
Wouldn't talk about him.
Wasn't there for the family visit.
No explanation.

Indeed. And thank you also for not bringing up on BBI that time I texted you about getting a certain something stuck a certain somewhere.
Dark days,
but rather Kevin Lanflisi?
Munn is a beard.
No reason for me to make it up I like the guy actually.

Yeah, I was about to post "Rodgers is a big dick? Actually rumor is he likes big dick".

That Rodgers is gay. NTTAWTT. I have a friend who is a big time club promoter nationwide and told me that Rodgers is a regular at gay club events where he goes incognito.

Wow. I don't why I never heard those rumors. Apparently, his ex-"assistant" was more of a boyfriend. Although, Rodgers does "really really like women".

I don't see why he'd have to "hide" anything about his sexual preferences in 20-16 though? If anything it would be on ESPN for 6 whole weeks, Packing Cheese: Day 17 of Superstar NFL QB of Green bay comes out! Remember the whole Michael Sam hoax? I mean fiasco. I used to love listening to podcasts until EVERY single one immediately dropped what they did and "had to" cover that stuff. NTTAWTT.
Munn has a weird face anyway.
You don't want to make definitive judgements over a private matter while having little to no information?
Wrong thread buddy.

Tim Mara was Well Mara's nephew.
Tim Mara, the elder, left the team to his two sons, Well and Jack, in equal shares. When Jack died, his son, Tim the younger, inherited his father's half of the team.

Is Worth cutting your immediate family off.

No. I think you're just fascinated by celebrities
It may not be just the GF. ShE may be part of it who knows but w a lot of guys in his place how many people including your family who do shit or ask you for shit etc. If going to a wedding or funeral will cause all
Kinds of trouble he chooses not good makes sense.
And that doesn't mean he's. It a dick too
The implied argument is that you always owe your family more than you do your friends, but that logic never seems to run the other way. Your family can treat you like complete crap, because you being family to them doesn't count for anything.
