In some cases, even illegal and harmful doesn't stand in the way of athletes. Look at Lyle Alzado.Back in the 20s, to chase away pain, players would take shots of brandy, during games, to help numb it. How do I know? My Father stood on the sidelines next to players who would take snorts from one of his hip flasks. It's amazing the names of the guys who he helped "numb themselves" against the pain and cold.I don't give a rip what Rodgers does off the field, as long as it's not illegal. I don't give a rip about how good his family life is. I know more about it than a lot of people though, since my son knows one of his kin fairly well, and has gotten more than a small amount of info over a few drinks. It's really not my business, or anyone else's.Back to what I care about. How well he plays inside the white lines, and winning the last two MVP awards is not saying he's playing poorly.We need to get past this constant griping and complaining about everything the guy does. It's really none of our business.</blockquote>
