TL/DR Aaron cut his family off and they're salty about it.

you can't just let people steal from you even if they are family. I have certain friends/family I wouldn't give any money to because I know they would just keep coming back.

To be fair, his brother barely even mentioned him. In fact, I would say he went out of his way to not bring up Aaron.
His introduction to the show was basically "Brother of Aaron Rodgers." So of course Aaron would come up. So I wouldn't give him too much credit.

Live look at the Rodger's house

That's your family. Bury the hatchet and move on. Can't get time back. Crazy to think none of his family attends any games.

Of course The Show is going to push him being his brother. What I meant is that in the entire course of the show, he only brought it up himself once and that was when they were his actual family's home and it was super awkward.
I feel ridiculous defending this clown but he simply didn't bring up his brother.

The one article I read recently said Aaron mailed back Christmas gifts from his parents. No matter what happened, that's weird AF and a total douche move IMO.
I've heard rumors about finances which I'm sure given his income and the Munn things. His dad's a chiropractor so he does alright, or should at least. It's not like he cuts his parents off and prevented them from leaving the trailer park.
Whole thing is odd, Jordan definitely brought it up on the bachelor. Given he was a huge doucher too and probably tried to use it to gain leverage.

I get it. He did his best and he didn't put everything out there.
It's an extremely sad situation and I hope they can work things out. They're going to regret all of this. And I hate that this will be a big story for as long as the Packers are alive in the playoffs. I'd rather talk football.

I disagree. Jordan specifically said you won't be meeting my brother because he is estranged. Aaron would of had 1000 reasons not to be there, and Jordan specifically played up the fact there were family issues. So it wasn't subtle at all. While the show could of easily played that up, again it was very very easy for Jordan to make it a non issue.

I've heard his parents really struggled when he came out to them.
Probably much of the reason for this stuff.

It's not like Rodgers grew up in the projects.
You do owe family to a degree. Hell, kids who grow up dirt poor buy momma a house.
Rodgers seems entitled and aloof and weird and double-rainbowy and if he wasn't playing football would be at some new age farm in Big Sur...Cal really got to him.

I would be surpirsed if it didn't really start/happen when all the gay rumors with his roommate/friend/personal assistant started to surface in late 2013.

Wait, will this get in his head this week or will it just make him pissed off?
I don't think this kind of stuff gets in his head.. He seems pretty detached from it all.
Aaron strikes me as the cosmic type..read a article on him in SI about a year or two ago that talked about how he loves physics and astrology, has a very strange workout regimen and comes off as a sociopath.

One thing you never do is loan money to family. You either give them them money straight up with no strings attached, or dont give them anything.
Makes for an interesting Thanksgiving.

Oh I agree. As a parent now, I would never expect anything from my kids if they were successful. Considering how odd Jordan and Aaron are I wouldn't doubt the mom is bat shite crazy.
Again though, I put a lot of this on Aaron being weird AF. The report was that his family doesn't even have his phone number. And again, mailing back Christmas gifts to your mom? Unless they can't afford them and you told them to save their money to get out of debt, I can't imagine doing that to my mom.

What if his mom called the love of his life a whore and said she wasn't welcome at their house?
What if his mom and dad owe him $100,000 and sent him an expensive gift?
Point is, we just don't know the whole story. Its pretty unfair to blame either party when we only hear from 1 side. And Aaron should not be obligated AT ALL to share his side.
His douche of a brother is the only reason their private family business is even in the public eye.
