Okay so how crazy of shit can come out of his mouth before his career is affected?? Yeah I know the answer... But shit, Kaepernick says some very true but uncomfortable things and gets the boot. Rogers spouts insanity and is handed another ball.

I mean... I don't know if you're an NFL fan or not but his stock isntly exactly high right now lol. He played like three snaps all season last season, is old for the game (for anyone not named "Tom Brady" anyway), and is wayyyy to much of a liability (and just to damn weird even if the crap he spouts WASNT dangerous) to do any kind of announcing or commenting.

Hes crap in the locker room, having barley talked to Zach Wilson, the kid he left to play his whole season on a doomed team (I guess Zach does owe him a bit though, I really disliked the kid now I give him some respect for stepping aside then stepping up best he could). His career won't be affected because random crap like this IS his career now. The jets have a contract, but there is no way Rodgers plays any meaningful football anymore.

I honestly am not much of a fan anymore I used to watch it, but I just can't be bothered to anymore. I got so sick of the management doing the, there is nothing to see behind the curtain shit. Everyone/thing has there bad side but if you can't own it, I can't be bothered.
