Exactly! George Takei just NAILED Aaron Rodgers...

[Heartstrings]

[SergeStorms]

1. Awwww....the snowflake is a victim.

❄❄❄Don't cry, Aaron.❄❄❄

[skydive forever]

2. Yeah, but at least he didn't take a knee.

Do I have to add the sarcasm thingy?

[KS Toronado]

48. I hope it brings him to his knees.

Even ICU on a ventilator for months, so when he gets out he'll encourage others to get the vaccine.
But I doubt his ego would allow him to promote vaccines.

15. Rodgers' Biggest Problem...

...isn't that he always thinks he's the smartest one in the room.
It's that he always thinks he's the only smart one in the room.
That happens when a fairly smart person isn't as smart as they think they are.

[ZonkerHarris]

59. the guy who majored in American Studies in college because he couldn't get into the Communications

program he wanted to prep himself for announcing after the pros is not as smart as he thinks he is.

[burrowowl]

33. Love the follow up!

[Martin68]

8. There they go again, playing the victim of those mean liberals. So he blames the wok mob for

the fact that he got Covid? Putz.

[Stuart G]

9. I would like to add one word...."STUPID"....ASSHAT!...

[japple]

10. Thank you, George. I would've called him an asswipe or an

asshole, but asshat will do!

[MustLoveBeagles]

11. George for the win

[NoMoreRepugs]

12. I'm wondering if it's possible, I say again - possible,

that among Rogers 500 pages some of the MyPillow Guys “evidence” of voter fraud is mixed in or mentioned? Maybe some inside scoop on Area51???

[JI7]

13. I looked him up and he is promoting bitcoin

[ProfessorGAC]

16. I Read A Piece On That

It was maybe a year ago, where was talking about how good it is and how he made this huge gain.
But, somebody inside leaked that his bitcoin holdings are about a thousandth of his portfolio.
So, he's encouraging others to take investment risks, when he's investing a penny for every $10.
Must not be that confident in the thing he's promoting.

[Bluethroughu]

36. He's a huckster...yikes.

No longer a fan of this crazy.

1. Putting others at risk during a pandemic.
2. Pushing crypto.

Done.

[TeamProg]

14. I thought he was smarter than that, but no, I was wrong. n/t

[paleotn]

17. Poster child for the Dunning-Kruger effect

Rodgers lives on the peak of "Mount Stupid". A millionaire only because we live in a country with wackadoodle priorities.

[33taw]

18. If he is "immunized" why did he get COVID? How was he immunized

He is fortunate that his employer required daily testing. It gave him the knowledge that he was positive the very first day of illness. He was able to get treated quickly and without delay. This is not true of all patients. Most patients may not know for a few days and then wait before getting treatment. Some patients have to wait to get treatment because of backlog. I think we all need to quit listening to Aaron Rodgers.

[SergeStorms]

38. Apparently he doesn't give a thought...

about how much he's costing the people of Green Bay (it's a community owned football team) for his daily COVID testing, and how much he's costing the team while he's not playing during his quarantine. Several Green Bay players have had COVID this season, so I guess he's not the only person on the anti-vax train. This costs the organization a bunch of money. But why would he care. It's not his money.

[33taw]

49. I live just east of Green Bay. I am not sure how the cost of the tests are paid for. The NFL may

pay the costs. This does demonstrate the power of unions. The Packers are one of the few public entities that can unionize along with the police.

[Paladin]

19. Outstanding! (nt)

[Martin Eden]

20. Fact-checking Aaron Rodgers' bizarre COVID beliefs

Speaking on "The Pat McAfee Show," Rodgers said that he is "in the crosshairs of the woke mob" and that "before my final nail gets put in my cancel culture casket," he wanted to clear up some of the "blatant lies out there." He said that he did not lie during his Aug. 27 press conference, when he said he was "immunized," but he said there was a "witch hunt" that was going on to shame people who had not been vaccinated.

Rodgers said that he did not get two of the vaccines because he found he was allergic to an ingredient in the mRNA vaccines, and said that when the Johnson & Johnson vaccine was pulled back in mid-April, he decided he would not get that vaccine either.

"I'm not some sort of anti-vax flat-earther. I'm somebody who's a critical thinker. I march to the beat of my own drum. I believe strongly in bodily autonomy. Not to have to acquiesce to some woke culture or some crazed group of individuals," Rodgers said on the show.

In addition to being allergic to an ingredient in the vaccine and his concern over the J&J vaccine, Rodgers said that he would like to become a father, and that to his knowledge, "there have been no long-term studies around sterility or fertility issues around the vaccines."

30. I hope his twig and berries shrivel up like

[SergeStorms]

39. Maybe that's why his girlfriend....

actor Shailene Woodley, broke up with him before the season started. Excuse me, they "decided not to see each other once the season began", according to him.

He's about 15 years older than her as well. She can do much, much better than him. That's my opinion anyway. He seems a bit too full of himself to have room in there for anyone else.

[forthemiddle]

46. According to an article 2 days ago

They are still together, and planning a summer wedding in Big Sur.

https://www.intouchweekly.com/posts/did-aaron-rodgers-and-shailene-woodley-split-their-relationship-status/

[SergeStorms]

47. Quite right.

I missed the boat on that one. Sorry. In late summer I read that they were on the outs. Obviously untrue.

If she's completely enamored by this "critical thinker" then my opinion of her just fell through the floor. (I know, she'll be crushed about that ). These 'mid-western elites' definitely deserve each other.

[Pachamama]

55. Shailene Woodley wants to have children with Aaron Rodgers?

So much for critical thinking….

[Bluethroughu]

37. Covid can cause impotence.

Woke culture did not create the vaccine bro, SCIENTISTS did.

Whatever.

[BidenRocks]

21. f they were still painting the fence,

WE LOVE THE PACKERS!!

Bart was the last honorable retirement of one of our superstars. (Bad coach though)

[Heartstrings]

23. Had the honor of meeting Mr. Starr at the wake for my cousin's funeral...

She died in 1966 at the age of 13 from an allergic reaction to peanuts. I was a year older.

Anyway, the Starr’s attended the same church as my Uncle and family so were good friends. As I remember, he was a kind, soft spoken man.

[BidenRocks]

25. Cementing the reputation

Of Green Bay being a friendly place.
I was born in MKE in 55.

[Poiuyt]

29. Bart Starr was the very definition of a gentleman

I met him several times.

[PJMcK]

51. Bart Starr was a childhood hero of mine

Years later, I was crushed to learn he was a hard-right “Christian.”

Oh, well. Mickey Mantle turned out to be an asshole, too. So was James Bond.

All my heroes were jackasses. I guess that says something about me!

(wink)

[IronLionZion]

22. The "Do your own research" crowd fails yet again

has he shared what exactly was his "immunization protocol"?

[SergeStorms]

41. I did my own research.

But I read medical journals and peer reviewed papers, not Facebook.

I came to the conclusion that the mRNA vaccine was safe, and found no reliable evidence that there were long-term side effects.

So doing your own research can be done if you're using the correct scientific studies to make an informed decision.

Facebook and Twitter would never be considered correct scientific studies, but when you're looking for an intended conclusion, like anti-vaxxers and republicans, they're considered gospel.

[stevebreeze]

50. Most people fail at doing their own research on picking a tv provider.

[SergeStorms]

58. Some would say...

if you picked a TV provider at all, you've made a mistake. I'm not one of those people yet, but I'm giving it some serious consideration.

[IronLionZion]

53. At least one of his sponsors has dropped him over this

https://www.npr.org/2021/11/06/1053255692/health-care-covid-19-aaron-rodgers-green-bay-packers-wisconsin

Let's see if more will drop him

[TheRealNorth]

24. The biggest issue

The biggest issue I have with him is that he did not follow the NFL protocols for non-vaccinated players, and therefore exposed others. He deserves a big hefty fine from the NFL, if not a suspension.

[Johonny]

26. Well, that and he went on to blame the mythical woke mob and cancel culture for the fact he lied

and didn't follow the rules. Instead of just apologizing, he went full bro and blamed everyone else for the problem he created. Meanwhile most Americans are now vaccinated, and many face mandatory vaccination at work so they really don't give a rats ass for Rogers half ass rationalizing his decision. Three billion people are now vaccinated world wide, yet he acts like it's some magic experimental treatment that you need to inquire with fellow bro Joe Rogan about instead of just doing the normal in and out procedure. It's also the bare minimum a person can do for the safety of others. As the leader of his team, to fail to even mask up because you were pretending to be vaccinated is low. Real low brow behavior.

[BidenRocks]

27. His Jersey

Will stay in my closet Sunday.

Fercrissakes, he could have killed somebody!!!
I am so pissed!!!

[LiberatedUSA]

28. I wonder how long it will take someone to introduce...

…legislation making it a federal crime to lie about being vaccinated.

[FakeNoose]

31. It should be a crime to intentionally expose others to the Covid virus

If someone lies about being vaccinated, it doesn't necessarily mean they're carrying the virus. It just means they don't give a shit about anyone else including their own loved ones.

[TexasBushwhacker]

32. It's against the law to have a fake vaccine card n/,t

[Cha]

34. "No Sir.. you're Just An

Asshole"! Love It!

[Calista241]

35. Rodgers says he's allergic to some of the ingredients in the vaccine.

I’m allergic to some foods, and the thought of eating any of them by accident terrifies me.

Rodgers said he was advised by his doctors to avoid the vaccine given his allergies and a potential allergic reaction. Just imagine if someone of Rodgers profile had taken and died from an allergic reaction to the vaccine. The vaccine hesitancy we see now would be infinitely worse.

The whole 240 character zinger methodology Twitter is known for disgusts me. There’s no room for nuance, and only serves to degrade our national discourse.

42. George Takei, ladies and gentlemen!

[Joinfortmill]

43. Agree

[Ferrets are Cool]

44. George is always correct.

[Champp]

45. What a baby

He's gotta be a republican.

Step 1. Be a dick.
Step 2. blame others when you get called out for being a dick.
Step 3. Continue to whine that life is "unfair."

Dude needs to Man Up, stop acting like a Republican, and take responsibility for his actions.

[papa3times]

52. What a whiny little snowflake

Aaron is! Be a man and take responsibility for your actions you gd crybaby. I'm sick of this rich fuckers thinking the rules don't apply to them but that's ok he says he's a critical thinker. Critical thinker my ass!

[nightwing1240]

54. I hate it when people assume

I'm not about to defend Aaron Rodgers for not being vaccinated and then being dishonest about it. Man up and be honest for crying out loud!

But, to run the man down when none of us REALLY know what his political stance is that is just a huge assumption.

Are any of you aware that Aaron Rodgers took a fan to task publicly for shouting out during a moment of silence for victims of the 2015 Paris terrorist attacks, "Muslims suck!"?

https://kutv.com/sports/talkin-sports/aaron-rodgers-wins-on-social-media-for-scolding-fans-anti-muslim-outburst

Before kick-off of the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions' game at Lambeau Field, the NFL held a moment of silence to honor those affected by the terror attacks in Paris two days earlier.

There was a moment of silence across the nation for all NFL games. The NFL's YouTube channel showed how stadiums around the NFL honored victims of the attacks. The one from Lambeau Field was at the end of the video compilation.

In the video you can hear one person apparently yelling "Muslims suck."

snip

Rodgers took a moment during the post-game interview to sternly call out and scold a fan like a father would to his child.

"I must admit though I was very disappointed with whoever the fan was who made a comment that I thought was really inappropriate, during the moment of silence," Rodgers told the media. "It's that kind of prejudicial ideology that I think puts us in the position that we are in today -- as a world."

That certainly does not sound like a rethug to me. Rodgers was also in opposition to the Dakota pipeline.

He is wrong and did lie about the vaccination issue but I am afraid he is not the only one, be they DEM or GOP.

[BradBo]

56. Seahawks fan here.

The last few years I was starting to become a fan of Rodgers, he seemed rational.
Apparently he’s just another dumb MAGA.
Look at Tom Brady trying to be more presentable to the public after his MAGA bullshit.

57. Being from WI

I have a fondness for Russell Wilson!
