I've stopped watching altogether. Nothing to do with politics or this shit. I just think it's a bad game. I think it's awful for young children that get into tackle at an early age. Just dealt with a season with my nephew. ALL the coaches are failed losers that think their kid is going to make it big. It's child abuse.

It's why most NFL players are gone after 3 years, lose any wealth they gained and are BK shortly after. I think it's something like 70% of the league ends up broke after their playing years They didn't learn any life skills the whole time they were playing from kid league to pro. And sure there are exceptions, but football is probably the worst sport one could play mentally and physically.

And no one tell me it teaches teamwork. It teaches you to despise teamwork if you're a producer. Especially positions like QB. You could throw a laser pass that's accurate but you're eating dirt because the guys in front of you suck. That really boosts ones moral.

Yes, football is really not a smart game, at the very least they should go back to the leather helmets and pads so that it hurts to collide with another player, that alone would force them to be a little more careful in their aggression.

And another way the QB can have his morale broken is when the receivers drop a perfect pass. And then there is the cheating and poor enforcement of the rules by referees. It is not that different than “pro” wrestling.

What is sport? It's a test of physical superiority. A test of agility, speed, accuracy and strength. What is man without physical tests? Let the games begin...but leave that woke shit at the door.

Individual Sports - fight yourself.

Lift Weights, Running, Swimming, Biking. Expose yourself to the Elements. Chop Wood.

Increase your physical capacity and discipline yourself without needing a middle aged chubby coach yelling at you.

The Giants of New York took on the Packers of Green Bay. The Giants triumphed by kicking a pigskin ball through a big H. A most ripping victory.

I have no issue with sport. I'm an IL All State Athlete myself two times almost 3. I'm capable of working with a team, but sometimes you HAVE to take matters into your own hands. You simply cannot do that with football. The best player on a losing team is still just that, a loser. Are lessons learned? Yes. That you shouldn't rely on other people for your own growth.

There's also politics in sports, especially kids around high school age. Parents, kids of teachers on teams, etc. It's not always the best kid gets game time. Could even be money if they're a booster. I dealt with it for basketball. I was one of two kids that could dunk in school, with the other being a senior and I was a sophomore at that time. I could rebound like a mother fucker and had a turn around jumper that was killer. I got cut Junior year because two kids had nepotism on their side. Is what it is. Life lesson from that. Spot those pussies and dominate them is what I should have done. Make it so they don't make the team. I was too nice I guess or thought I was a shoe in because I was clearly better. Learned from that. Adults in coaching are generally idiots and just looking to get an extra check and pad the pension in high school.

I'm just saying that I appreciate the incredible authentic ability on display. Sports are never going away. Been with us since forever. This country has somehow allowed the rich become too powerful which has fucked up almost all enjoyment. Something has got to be done about it.

Great quotes from this guy:

"I realize I'm in the crosshairs of the woke mob right now, so before my final nail gets put in my cancel culture casket, I think I'd like to set the record straight on so many of the blatant lies that are out there about myself right now," Rodgers began on "The Pat McAfee Show."

"First of all, I didn't lie in the initial press conference," Rodgers said. "During that time, it was a witch hunt that was going on across the league where everybody in the media was so concerned about who was vaccinated and who wasn't and what that meant … And at the time, my plan was to say that I had been immunized. It wasn't some sort of ruse or lie. It was the truth."

Now, I'm not sure why people are mad at Rodgers for testing positive. There have been plenty of positive COVID-19 cases in the NFL of vaccinated people. Where's their witch hunt?

Could it be that this has nothing to do with actual science?!

"Some of the rules, to me, are not based in science at all. They're based purely in trying to out and shame people, like needing to wear a mask at a podium when every person in the room is vaccinated and wearing a mask – makes no sense to me," Rodgers said. "If you got vaccinated to protect yourself from a virus that I don't have as an unvaccinated individual, then why are you worried about anything I could give you?"

"I have followed every single protocol to a T – minus that one I just mentioned which makes absolutely no sense to me."

Perhaps the most ironic thing about all of this is that it seems Rodgers contracted COVID from a vaccinated person!

"It's pretty evident I tested positive being around a vaccinated individual," Rodgers said. "That's the majority of people I spend time with. There's been dozens of individuals that work at the facility that are vaxxed that have tested positive. So, this idea that it's the pandemic of the unvaccinated is just a total lie."

Lastly, if Rodgers didn't put the final nail in his coffin with his comments earlier in the interview, he certainly did it with these comments on Trump, Joe Rogan, hydroxychloroquine (HDQ), and Ivermectin.

"I consulted with a now good friend of mine Joe Rogan, after he got Covid, and I've been doing a lot of the stuff that he recommended in his podcasts and on the phone to me," Rodgers said.

"I'm going to have the best immunity possible now based on the 2.5-million-person study from Israel that the people who get Covid and recover, have the most robust immunity. I'm thankful for people like Joe stepping up and using his voice. I'm thankful for my medical squad and I'm thankful for all the love and support I've gotten but I've been taking monoclonal antibodies, Ivermectin, zinc, vitamin C and DHCQ. And I feel pretty incredible."

[PROFANITY WARNING]

"The problem with this is it is so political," Rodgers said. "And health should not be political. It shouldn't be that ‘Trump endorsed Ivermectin and HDQ and so, take that s*** off, it doesn't work.' In general, we all should have been a little hesitant. When Trump in 2020 was championing these vaccines that were coming so quick, what did the Left say? And I'm talking about every member of the Left. ‘Don't trust the vaccine. Don't get the vaccine. You're gonna die from the vaccine … '"

"And then what happened? Biden wins and everything flips. Shouldn't that initially give you a little pause … isn't this about health and not about politics? And to that point, has any member of the health staff this entire time, got up and actually talked about real health? Have they talked about exercise, a healthy diet, eating real food, drinking water, taking vitamins, vitamin D deficiency and what that causes in the body? No. There hasn't been any of that."

Aaron Rodgers did exactly the right thing
Everyone should follow his example. He did the right thing for himself, for his teammates and for society.

I wanted to thank Aaron Rodgers for doing the right thing. For himself. For his teammates. For society.

Rodgers got COVID, treated it early with a cocktail of drugs, and now he has full recovered immunity.

Unlike his vaccinated teammates, Rodgers:

Is highly unlikely to get hospitalized or die (many studies show the superior protection afforded to those who recover)

Cannot transmit any future infections to his teammates (see evidence revealed by the CDC)

So Aaron set an example for his team and for society on the right thing to do. And he also benefitted himself too.

Win-win-win compared to the vaccine solution.

And he actually took less risk in the process (since the vaccines are way more risky than having COVID and treating it early)!

My only suggestion for others (from one of the commenters) is to say "I didn't want to end up like all those soccer players, dead on the field" - and say nothing else. Then the press couldn't quote him without highlighting one big danger of the vaccines.

Today, he’s better off in every respect than any of his teammates.

Thank you Aaron. I hope others follow your example.

Bravo!
