CRY ME A RODGERS

When I heard the news that Aaron Rodgers wants out of Green Bay, it was pure delightful news. As a Bears fan, I’m used to getting steamrolled by Aaron Rodgers and the Packers every season, twice a year. Sure the Bears had some fluke wins over the Packers when Rodgers is behind center. Five fluke wins over Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers still has the upper hand beating the Bears 21 times, 22 if you count the NFC Championship. Before Aaron Rogers, dealing with all those years when the Packers dominated the Bears when Brett Favre ran the show. The same quarterback that was playing at a top level tier when the Packers drafted Aaron Rodgers and eventually forced Favre out of Green Bay. Last season, the Packers used their number one pick on a quarterback and drafted Jordan Love out of Utah State. Aaron Rodgers’ response was to have a MVP regular season only to be knocked out of the playoffs by Tom Brady and the Buccaneers. Then the news came out on draft night that Aaron Rodgers wants out of Green Bay for good. Rodgers even has a list of teams he would love to play for. Rodgers wants the Packers to fire their General Manager Brian Gutekunst and then perhaps he would return. If Rodgers’ demands are not met, he’d rather retire than suit up as a cheese-head this coming season.

I love how suddenly the NFL quarterbacks in the league are trying to be like Lebron James and all these NBA players, who pick their new surroundings when things go bad. Russell Wilson had a list that had the Bears on it. Not sure what Wilson was thinking picking a place where quarterbacks go to die. Then before Wilson, Deshaun Watson wanted out of Houston. Several lawsuits and women coming out of the woodwork saying Watson was a dirty dog. It means he still is leashed to the fire hydrant in Houston. Once upon a time ago, a quarterback named Carson Palmer wanted out of Cincinnati. Palmer would eventually get his way but had to sit out for a entire season. Can Rodgers sit out for an entire season and come back at 38 years old? Rodgers has the same agent that Carson Palmer used. The Bengals eventually decided to trade Palmer to the Raiders. Would Green Bay change their mind if Rodgers did not play in the 2021 season? Everyone saw Tom Brady leave New England and lead the Buccaneers to a Superbowl win in his first season. Do the 49ers, Raiders, or the Broncos have a chance if Aaron Rodgers is behind center? Those are the teams the cry baby has on his list. Patrick Mahomes is still a young man in the AFC West. Mahomes has not reached his potential yet. The 49ers, who were riddled with injuries last season, if healthy could be that team of 2019 that made it to the Superbowl and lost to the Chiefs. The Rams, Seahawks, and the Cardinals make that a very tough division in which nothing would be handed to the 49ers if they were even led by Aaron Rodgers.

The Packers made it all the way to the NFC Championship versus the 49ers in the 2019th season when San Francisco would move on to the Superbowl to face Kansas City. Many thought the following year the Packers would seek some weapons in the draft or free agency for Aaron Rodgers to use. Rodgers has always made receivers around him better. Some guys no one has ever heard of become household names because Rodgers puts it right in their hands in tight windows where they are the only one who can catch it. Green Bay chose a quarterback as this move by the GM was the writing on the wall. Rodgers would run amuck through the competition and become MVP of the league in the Stephen King horror story of 2020. If Aaron Rodgers gets his way and is traded, no MVP ever in the NFL has been traded after winning that award a year before. Some players have retired and walked off into the sunset after winning a MVP. Rodgers could walk away too and seek fortunes by hosting the game show Jeopardy and hocking insurance for State farm as he’s been doing. Rodgers has a Superbowl in his credits. Cry me a Rodgers wants to do what Tom Brady did. Except Brady was a free man while Rodgers is in the middle of a big contract with the Packers.

This is an old west shoot out at the Coo-Coo-Corall at high noon between Aaron Rogers and the Packers brass. Who will flinch first? Packers brass have gone to meet with Rodgers this off-season more than once to try to repair this riff between player and management. Even Head Coach Matt LaFleur went west to calm the storm between the quarterback and everyone’s favorite people in the world, management. The Packers still knew the situation was in hot water but in the first round went with a corner-back in the 2021 draft instead of maybe starting to mending fences getting Rodgers some weapons of mass destruction at his disposal. Rodgers’ thought process must of been that’s a giant F-You from the GM of the Packers. This soap opera is bad for the game of football as we do not like to go down the NBA road. It is weird that management never gets Rodgers the big name receiver in free agency. Why do they not draft a top rated receiver in the draft. Having Devante Adams on one side and a stud on the other side is just common sense. Aaron Rodgers is a weird dude in this as well. You were once Jordan Love, moron. Rodgers is a guy that disowned his family. Rodgers broke up with race car driver Danica Patrick. Nobody would kick her out of bed for eating crackers. After that break up Rodgers is suddenly engaged to actress Shailene Woodley.

I have to give Danica Patrick the edge over Shailene Woodley for two reasons. First, she’s better looking and second, Danica is a Chicago Bears fan. If Aaron Rodgers leaves the game of football this way and does not get what he wants, he will walk out the door as the biggest wuss in sports history. Why don’t you show Jordan Love and the Packers you are better than him by keeping him on the bench? Besides… whatever happened to training your own replacement at the job? I hope the Packers stand their ground. Hope they are not right about Jordan Love because that’s all we need. Another decade of quarterback domination adding another name on Mars Cheese Castle like the Presidents sculptured on Mt. Rushmore. It’s Wisconsin and some strange things occur in the dairy state. I’d be happy to see the turd Rogers out of the NFC North but gone baby gone. Where do I sign? I will say Bon voyage to Aaron Rodgers with a hit that tells the way I feel about this cry baby.

The only good play that Shea McClellin made in a Bears uniform as he drove Aaron Rodgers into the ground. Now Brett Farve could feel that old time love he used to have to himself from the Green Bay faithful before the Packers gave him a little brother named Aaron.
