I’ve been an Aaron Rodgers apologist for a long time. A “fan” even, even though I root for the Bears (sort of). But this Covid thing has revealed his true character, it’s ugly. Still a great QB, though. But what an assbag.
FTR, Justin Fields is vaccinated and talks to his family.
-
Kind of surprised State Farm hasn’t dropped him as a pitchman already. What a duplicitous assbag.
-
No one who has ever heard anything about Aaron Rodgers family life is surprised by this.

This is a no, no.

Jake from SF needs to up Aaron's rates.

It doesn’t matter what Rodgers is doing now. He played with fire and got burned.
Now he's playing the victim game.
He's a smuck. All he had to say was "I'm not getting vaccinated."

Once again, the best policy would have been to get out ahead of this, show some humility, and apologize. Instead, he triples down and looks like a fool, a jerk, and a bad teammate. I’d be pretty surprised if State Farm doesn’t pull the plug on Rodgers. I’d have to think the perception of trust and reliability are of utmost importance to an insurance company, and Rodgers clearly does not embody those traits.
-
Again, not everyone lives on The Twitter.
-
As Michael Jordan once said, conservatives buy sneakers too.
-
The fact that he tried to lie his way around it is way worse than being unvaxxed. He wanted it both ways. At least Cousins and Beasley had the courage of their convictions.
-
Oh brother

Oh brother
So you think the fact that he misled everyone about his vax status, and was allowed to break protocol is no big deal?
-

I was not paying attention as I do not care and do not respect him. He apparently claimed to be immunized, not vaccinated. There is a huge difference. Don't you think?
-
I am more upset that Emilio Estevez won't be back on the 2d season of the Mighty Ducks show on The Dianey Puss due to his anti-vax stance.

No. What other forms of “immunization” are there outside of the shot? They asked if he was vaxxed and his response was “yeah.”
He clearly tried to deceive the reporters (and it worked until now). And the Packers (and apparently the NFL) allowed him to break protocols for unvaxxed players.
-
Again, I would like for you to explain to me how one gets “immunized”‘without the shot. I’ll hang up and listen to your answer.
Does “immunized” by wizards or a witch doctor count? Maybe a medicine man?
-
Once again, again, acquiring immunity doesn't necessarily equate vaccination.
I'm immune from meatheadedness based on repeated exposure/survival.

How does one acquire “immunity” without the shot? I suppose death is one way.
-
I wonder if the CDC mentions "acquired immunity" in their website ?
-
So if you can catch it more than once (which clearly is the case), how does one “acquire” immunity?
-
Is it bequeathed to you? Say from someone who died of Covid? Hereditary? Magic potion?
-
Some things are not absolute.
Some things are.

Obviously he was wrong. Shocking, I know!

Hmmm. Maybe I should reconsider having JudgeJudy on Ignore.

Sorry for the typo...beer + no glasses + fat fingers = fucked up typing.

"unvaccinated individuals are more than twice as likely to be reinfected with COVID-19 than those who were fully vaccinated after initially contracting the virus"
https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2021/s0806-vaccination-protection.html
But, this was a study in Kentucky, so who knows what they got in the blood stream down there.

How about re-infection after an initial Covid infection ?

I believe the article was saying that those who are vaccinated are much more protected against reinfection (assuming both the vaccinated and un-vaccinated have previously been infected).
-
Aaron Rodgers is just Jay Cutler but really good.

[/quoteI believe the article was saying that those who are vaccinated are much more protected against reinfection (assuming both the vaccinated and un-vaccinated have previously been infected).
My bad. But I do remember looking at this study before, and dismissed it after reading the paragraph that begins with ........
The findings in this report are subject to at least five limitations......
-

Funny, because I’ve said for years that Jay Cutler was the bad version of Aaron Rodgers.

The moral of the story is that Aaron Rodgers is a duplicitous douchebag who only adopted bullshit arguments against vaccination when he got caught. He has a lot of endorsements and didn’t want to be the anti-vax face of the NFL. Ironically, that’s who he is now. A week ago he was probably my favorite player in the NFL (I know, I’m a Bears fan (allegedly), but I just love(d) watching him play). I have been an apologist for him when people have called him a d-bag in the past; no longer.
-
Tl:dr Aaron Rodgers is a Packer.
-
It's not really that long. You should read it. It's Tempo's finest hour.

Being a Packer fan these days means having to endure your hall of fame QB slowly turn into a whinny little toddler.
Do whatever it is you feel you gotta do Rodgers, but at least be honest enough to own it.

Rodgers still owns the Bears.

Agreed. Doubling down on his lie, and trying to turn it on others is a terrible look. He’s botched this whole episode from A to Z.

Finally a celebrity doing everything right !
-
Glad we can finally put the notion that Tempo is genuinely retarded to rest !

Figures you’d be 100% behind the anti-vaxxer who lied about his status, and then played the victim when he was exposed for his lie.

Oh shit, Tempo gonna cancel State Farm now.

Good for State Farm. Glad they took a stand for people’s personal choice. 👏🏼
-
Maybe Allstate can pick him up. They seem to have a thing for promoting risky behavior.
-
They reduced his ads by 95%. Could just be a statement to buy them some time.

Maybe the anti-vaxxers will all buy their insurance and State Farm will go broke.

Good call. Actually, he's starting to look like the "mayhem" guy.

I only buy insurance policies promoted by a gecko, an emu, or any past character on Law and Order.

Man, I wish we'd had a pool as to who would have the dumbest take on this. I'd have raked it in.
Probably would've had to split it with everyone else though.

I’ll side with Rodger’s on this one. That reporter is an idiot and seeking attention.

Just saw Rodgers is 11-10 in the postseason. Definitely not in the best QB of all-time conversation.
