Was the booing that pronounced? I was watching and didn't even notice. Was it when he jogged onto the turf or when the first team offense started the scrimmage?

[Tyrone Bigguns]

GAME, SET, MATCH.

Was the booing that pronounced? I was watching and didn't even notice. Was it when he jogged onto the turf or when the first team offense started the scrimmage?

I definitely noticed when Rodgers was on a long streak of incompletions. Some said there was booing when Rodgers led the team out at the start. Unless they were calling for Ruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuvell Martin.

[Packers4Glory]

what was the quote from Rodgers about what the fans should do? just shut up or something to that effect?

me thinks a booing isn't totally unjustified considering what he had said this offseason.

I think Ruvell's only fan is Ballhawk

[Zool]

If the kid has worked his whole life to get to the NFL, spent countless hours practicing, working, conditioning, etc. and then he gets his first "appearance" as the head QB and he gets booed.....how can you not feel sorry for him?

It will make him stronger in the end.

BTW, I think it's horrible when fans boo

I booed the hell out of McGuire during the HR chase. Is that bad? Brewer fans were cheering for his AB's. I was appalled.

[MOBB DEEP]

agreed

boo TT and m3 all you want if you disagree with the way they've handled the favre mess

but a-rod has been nothing but a class act through this whole thing

i do feel bad for him in this whole mess, he's done nothing wrong. just a bad situation for him

hard to feel sorry for him (7 million $ and wont sustain any injuries...)

in pro sports the BEST PLAYERS PLAY!!!

i like him alot but i dont get the "feel sorry" thing

i feel sorry for crack babies

keepn it in perspective

crack babies don't need your pity

actually ALOT of the clients i provide therapy and meds for have mothers who were using while pregnant my man....

so, OF COURSE a millionaire athlete that has to wait a year or two to start bother's me NONE. he coulda CHOSEN a different position where he could rotate in or contribute in other ways (legacy of many black qb's). whereas these crack babies couldnt CHOSE their parents

They all laugh, but Rodgers got pretty comfortable throwing to Martin the last 3 years. Chemistry could elevate his Ruvell's play.

Disagree with this sentiment. You feel sorry for people within the frame of reference in which they operate.

If someone's rich, but they are going through a bad divorce, we can't feel sorry for them? Sure, kids in Africa have it worse, but based on his/her normal environment, the divorcee is going through some bad times.

If an IT professional gets laid off of his job, we can't feel sorry for him because he has a relatively good life otherwise? That doesn't make sense to me.

That said, talk of the boos seem exaggerated. I did hear a little, but it wasn't that bad, from what I saw (on TV twice).

[cpk1994]

I'd never thought I would see a thread about Ruvell Martin and crack babies. Good laugh to start the morning.

i could debate that from a spiritual level (HE causes ALL things to work together for our good ROMANS 8:28...) but arent u Hindu??

but back to the context

do u feel arod's really being wrongd and deserves sympathy in HIS situation?
