Rodgers Continues to Steam Roll Opponents and his own Team.

You're gay, and not like the commercial starring Hillary Duff, you really are gay in the sense that you wear a skirt as a top.

If he was wearing Hillary Duff's skirt and top would he be gay like that commercial then?

You can see where his self editor caught up with him mid sentence and said you should have gone with 'kid' rather than 'boy'. Time to compensate.

I think Rodgers has shown he has an understanding of leadership. He clearly won over his young teammates in his first three years. He took over starting in a very precarious position and managed it very well even among veteran teammates. So I am going to give him the benefit of the doubt on this topic.

I much prefer things like this to be handled behind closed doors. That said, there is a tremendous media surge to annoint Finley as the second coming of Kellen Winslow, Sr. Pair that with an overabundance of WR talent, and some tempering of expectations might be necessary in public to keep the peace. Should it be the coach's job? Ideally, but coaches have had trouble with this situation before and it might take the QB to sort it out player by player.

Someone has to stand up as the public leader on the offense and the QB is a natural fit. Finley I thought has handled himself well so far this season, but Rodgers might think its time to focus on where they are right now.

As for the spotlight, he won a Super Bowl without Finley. He can have all the spotlight he wishes to. There are a lot of Ford dealers around.

This is exactly what I thought when I read that bit, pb. He said it, he caught himself, he changed his tune quick.

This happened to me once when a woman I was dating took her top off. I said "You look like a boy! Err, man. Err, I mean girl. No, wait, woman. A woman. No, seriously, that's what I meant to say."

She got me back, though. She compared me to a former Packer quarterback. Said something about the number four being appropriate in my case. I'm not sure what she meant, but I was hurt and sad.

At least he hasn't called his kicker a drunk.

[MJZiggy]

I thought he was more of the 80s bikershorts type of boy.

He needs medical attention.

[Fritz]

Ziggy, do you mean "medical" attention?

[Tony Oday]

AR is the leader of the team, Superbowl MVP, great QB, he can say whatever the f he wants because he has earned it! Good god look at his face when HE screws up he knows he did it and now he wants his buddy, who is also a stud TE, to clean it up so he can win the game AGAIN! Its not like AR is calling out some rookie on the practice squad he is calling out a guy in a contract year and in a year where we have a very good team.

[Guiness]

Ziggy, do you mean "medical" attention?

Depends if it's been like that for more than 4 hours.

[Bossman641]

Wow, talk about a complete overreaction.

Rodgers and Finley are obviously good friends. Let's not forget how much Rodgers was building Finley up last year. Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Rodgers make multiple statements AFTER winning the super bowl about how much he was looking forward to getting Finley back and how dominant he thought he could be.

When Rodgers starts talking about other players' contracts or implying other plays should show up for minicamps and training camps while he rides his tractor around and sends out dick pix, THEN I will be worried.

closed this thread, waste of time.

[MJZiggy]

Ziggy, do you mean "medical" attention?

No, he needs a doctor.

This happened to me once when a woman I was dating took her top off. I said "You look like a boy! Err, man. Err, I mean girl. No, wait, woman. A woman. No, seriously, that's what I meant to say."

And that's where it all went bad between you and Drew right?

[Iron Mike]

Cannonball!!!!!!

[Pugger]

Rodgers might be right but I'm with those who think this sort of thing should not be discussed in front of the media.

[pbmax]

At first glance this could be seen negative but I think we have to base our judgement on the person. Finley is very public about everything and loves showboating. I think ARod is just reaching out to Finley in a way he feels would get maximum results. I think it was played correctly.

This.

As for the boy comment, I would like to hear the audio. Betting he says more how a rapper say "them boys are crazy" versus how all you crackas here say "that BOY is crazy". You fucking rednecks.

And probably this, but it also describes the precise problem. Most of the world isn't going to get to hear the audio.

[Zool]

Next he'll be complaining to the media about Walker.....uh I mean Finley's handling of his contract situation.
