Aaron Rodgers
Forums:
The dude blew it. I was willing to listen to the man from Stanford and hear about his "research" - until he brought up his "friend" Joe Rogan and thanked him for standing up and speaking out. Unbelievable.
Aaron says “The right is gonna champion me and the left is gonna cancel me. I don't give a shit about either of them. Politics is a total sham. I'm not going on Fox News just like I'm not going to go on CNN.”
But Aaron, it's NOT about politics. It's called public health. Ask the over 740,000 dead people's families, just in the US alone, or the 11 year-old in Salt Lake who had to postpone her heart surgery because there's no effing room at the hospital! I really thought he was smarter than that.
Aaron should have listened to what Joe Rogan said in early September after Rogan tested positive for COVID.
- Rogan later said he was not anti-vaccination and added that he should not be the source of medical advice, as he isn’t a doctor. "I'm not a doctor," Rogan said, according to the BBC in April.
"I'm not a respected source of information, even for me."
New jersey for Aaron?
Longtime Packer fan really disappointed in this guy, not that he should or would care about that.

I haven't been following this story.
Did he spread it to his teammates, family, or the public in general ?
If not, I'm with racket. If so, I still don't give much of a fuck. I live in an area with sooooooo many non-vaxer trump lovers, I just make sure to protect myself as best I can. Booster gotten 2 weeks ago, mask always on in public. So it goes.
I liked him as Jeopardy host, and enjoy his commercials.

Depending on who you listen
Depending on who you listen to, the core issue is that he may or may not have misled the public to think he was vaxed. He interprets his words one way conveniently, and the press in another direction.
He's been pretty much on full buffoon mode since preseason.

Looking forward to see what Jordan Love can do. He was pretty good at Utah State. Not a first round draft pick for nothin'. Hope he kicks ass. With Aaron isolated for 10 days, Jordan may get two starts. And a team next year.
Maybe a bridge too far, but funny anyway.

The problem is that a
The problem is that a celebrity anti vaxer won't die from their decisions because when they get sick they will go in and get antibody treatment, but guys like this cop who look to people like Rogers, Tucker Carlson and Rogan won't get that kind of treatment.
SAN FRANCISCO A police officer who was placed on leave for missing the city of San Francisco’s deadline to be inoculated has died after being stricken by COVID-19.
Officer Jack Nyce, 46, tested positive on Nov. 2 and died Saturday at a hospital in Manteca, his wife, Melissa Nyce, told the San Francisco Chronicle on Monday.
The Chronicle said Melissa Nyce declined to say whether her husband was vaccinated but the vice president of the San Francisco Police Officers Association, Lt. Tracy McCray, said Jack Nyce was on a 30-day stint of paid administrative leave because he had not received the vaccination required by the city.
The death comes as mandates for government employee vaccinations are seeing some push-back.
The San Francisco Police Department said last week that as many as 70 sworn and civilian workers had been placed on leave for not meeting a Nov. 1 vaccination deadline. A press release said that as of Nov. 2, 97.5% of department employees were fully vaccinated.
Any officers who remain unvaccinated by Nov. 13 will be placed on unpaid administrative leave until the San Francisco Police Commission convenes a hearing.
Jack Nyce was a 17-year employee of the department.
“He loved being a cop,” his widow said.

The SF cop died of COVID in Manteca. Did he live way out there? If so, what the hell was he doing working as a police officer in San Francisco? It should be a minimum requirement that cops live in the communities they serve.

In other NFL fining news:
"Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb has run afoul of the NFL’s uniform police repeatedly this season.
Lamb has been fined twice for having his jersey untucked, $5,150 for the first offense and $15,450 for the second offense, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
The NFL triples the amount of the fine with each successive offense, so if it happens again he’ll be fined $46,350."

Rogers did nothing wrong than
Rogers did nothing wrong than confuse reporters with his use of the English language, which I find kinda comical that every sports reporter was to stupid to ask a follow up question. The NFL allowed this. Now his not following protocol is another matter and I think he should be suspended another game for that. Is he an idiot, does his math add up, I think not but again, by nfl rules, he did nothing wrong, but not follow protocol. Did his decision cost them a game, yep, did it hurt the team, yep.
I have seen one thing in sports in this kind of situation. If you admit your mistake, and apologize the fans will forgive you. If you try to play it off they will eat you alive and run you out of town. Rogers thinks he is smarter than the room, but the room runs the show in the nfl

From my understanding, lots
From my understanding, lots of Bay Area cops, firefighters, teachers, etc live pretty far away from their jobs due to the crazy high housing costs. Chicago city workers have to live in the city (at least cops for sure) so they take it right up to the line just barely still in city proper and many of those neighborhoods are ultra "safe" because of it too.

I know that this at be
I know that this at be unpopular, but I'm starting to be in the "who cares?" camp on this. First, he NFL doesn't have a vaccination mandate, so he wasn't breaking any rules. Second, I get the impression that quite a few on the Packers and in the whole league aren't vaccinated, and that all those prescribed protocols are rarely being followed. Rogers is a fucking idiot, but he's in a league that rewards that behavior. I highly doubt if any of his vaccinated teammates or opponents complained about it.
Then there's the whole endemic thing. At some point we're all going to be exposed to it. He tested positive and didn't get sick. Plenty of vaccinated pro athletes, in all sports, have tested positive and also didn't get sick. At this point we have vaccines and a couple of pills that almost cure the virus. It's a conundrum.
Meanwhile, rates in Vermont, the most vaccinated state in the country, are through the roof. At the same time, they are declining in many of those shithole red states. I've been researching why, and the best I could.come up with is here immunity. We did so well at containing it here, and then with vaccines, that we have no herd immunity and it's spreading like wildfire. The red states have herd immunity.

Rogers is an asshole because
Rogers is an asshole because he wouldn't own it. He made everyone believe he was vaccinated, and then when busted pulled out every stale old card from the antivax deck from quoting MLK like he is some kind of oppressed minority to blaming the media for leaking the story. Are the NFL and the Packers complicit. You Betcha. But if Rogers wasn't a self involved asshole then none of this happens. If you drive in a car and accept that risk and then say that vaccines are to risky then you are completely and utterly full of shit.
Red states don't have herd immunity. Just because you have had Covid doesn't mean you are immune, and depending on how much of a viral load dose you got your immune response is wildly unpredictable. Vaccines give the best protection against getting really sick, and lower the likely hood of spread. Vaccines plus having had it is the best protection. But yeah it's frustrating because it isn't ever going away and it is just another risk we are going to have to factor in like West Nile and AIDS. That said if more people would get vaccinated it would give our completely burned out health care workers a break and slow down the spread.

He was breaking the rules by not following ANY of the protocols in place for the unvaccinated players.
Break the NFL rules, get penalized. Clean cut.
Lie to your fan base? That's a different story. Yet, if he gets them to the Super Bowl they will love him.
