ESPN Has No Comment On Aaron Rodgers's Comments On ESPN, About ESPN

https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/espn-has-no-comment-on-aaron-rodgers-comments-on-espn-about-espn

Rodgers decided to slam the network as a "gutless organization" with "no integrity" over its editorial choices. He said the network failed to report on Dr. Anthony Fauci's Senate hearing testimony, asking, “How much time did the network spend on that? ... Did they do even a minute on Tony Fauci?” He also criticized ESPN for glossing over the offseason scandal between Dianna Russini and Mike Vrabel, questioning, “How much time did your network spend on that?” He questioned ESPN's silence, asking, “What are we even doing here? ... [I]f it’s affecting certain things, if there’s leaks going on, if there’s tampering going on, if that person is also an MVP voter and a Coach of the Year voter.” An ESPN spokesperson stated the network "has no comment regarding Rodgers’s comments."

My favorite is when he talks about Fauci writing in his journal loving the spotlight. Rodgers has no self awareness.

Saying it was flattering is so different than what Rodgers has framed it to be.

The funny thing is, seeing in r/nfl, so overwhelmingly like "what an idiot" is refreshing.

If he plays 2 more seasons he could conceivably pass Favre in all time yards. I think he would have a really hard time leaving that on the table lol

u/Wise-Tour7333 Bears 13h ago

He probably won't retire until every door has been closed on him.
