If Aaron Rodgers was pro vaccine, how differently would this board view him?

The Rodgers love/hate vacillates on this board like Taylor Swift vacillates between men.

Now that he’s lost, it seems like we’re back to hating him as much as we have at any point pre-2021.

Dude wasn’t good last night.

Are you jumping for joy that a vax denier just got put out of the playoffs?

I don’t give a damn if you’re pro vax or anti vax. What gets me is those who agree with him don’t want to call him out for being a cancer because they agree with his views.

I can somewhat agree that the vaccine mess was a byproduct of his personality. He’s definitely a me-first player.

I still don’t believe that was the problem last night. He just wasn’t very good.

It’s not about the vaccine. It’s about how this board would react differently had the man presented a belief that goes against that of 80% here all week, then lost.

He gets a pass here when if his beliefs would have been different there would be countless threads bashing him for being selfish. Which - regardless of his stance - he’s still a selfish douchebag.

Let’s say he had spent the last week forcing his “pro vax” views on everyone instead of focusing on the game. Wouldn’t that be called out?

I mean….Rodgers wasn’t trying to make his vaccination status public knowledge. Nosy reporters and the league are the ones who dragged this out in the open.

I’m vaccinated. I’m convinced the vaccine saves lives and reduces hospitalization. I also don’t care if someone else chooses not to take it. Maybe if we all operated like that we’d have fewer problems.

I’ve been saying this same thing lol. This board is a joke sometimes. Rodgers is set in his ways on everything he has an opinion on.

People are quick to jump on Rodgers bandwagon but must have forgotten his stance when it comes to kneeling... Rodgers along with LeBron were one of the first few ppl to call out Drew Brees...

But I guess all that’s ok now though bc we like his vaccine stance. LOL WHAT A FRICKING JOKE

Both sides (really there are way more) are plenty guilty of narrow minded in-group/out-group tribalism. It’s 2022 and you’ve got democrats worshiping Dick Cheney, and up until the vax mandate was struck down, conservatives were whining that the US Supreme Court justices are a bunch of spineless goons.

And they’ll flip flop in a heart beat if anyone strays off the plantation. All it takes is one wrong tweet or forgetting a mask to go from CUCK to BASED AND REDPILLED AF!!!!

That said, I thought ARod would have been smarter than to be a media distraction during the playoffs. The Packers were at home in Green Bay against the shambling corpse of Jimmy Garopollo; should have been an easy win. Hard to say how much ARod’s small media circus contributed to the loss, but it certainly didn’t help. They need more guys like Davante Adams.
