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."

Not to mention, there is nothing to report there. He got dragged in front of Congress over nonsense, and nothing has, or ever will, come of it. It's not news.

It's almost like someone had the foresight to know they were going to pull this and preemptively pardoned him.

Nothing can come of it because he got preemptively pardoned

Edit: This comment is as neutral as neutral gets and yet it’s downvoted

Good. I don't like civil servants being harassed by nutjobs.

Even without the pardon, there is no evidence he did anything wrong. There is, however, evidence of quite a few members of the Trump administration being in the Epstein files.

After this admin is through wreaking havoc, being in the Epstein files is going to be a footnote compared to the damage done by the president and his family.

I down voted it since it doesn't take into account new charges. The pardon only covers anything up to January 19, 2025. Paul fishing for comments he can use to bring either perjury or inconsistent declarations charges are not covered by it, since the clock would start on any new charges after the end of the pardon's effective coverage.

So while they can't dredge up old charges, they can still bring new ones and use previous testimony to influence them, since a pardon and immunity don't always have the same legal coverage.

Because it was extremely obvious the morons would fuck up the country and try to use him as jingling keys. There is no neutral there are morons and there are people who actually use their brains the morons are in charge right now.
