[QUOTE="RepStar15, post: 906889, member: 10721"] I am jumping on to this late (apparently 15 page late), but I wanted to see how things unfolded before I formulated an opinion and now I finally have one. Football is a business, for both sides. An employer needs to make the finances work and an employee needs to be paid the money they are worth. That being said, the Packers organization has done the following in the past 2 years to help Aaron Rodgers: - Fired their HC and hired a coach that was a system Rodgers liked and worked well with. - Resigned an All-Pro left tackle - Drafted a future All-Pro LG - Re-signed a top 5 RB - Re-signed a top 5 TE - Has the #1 WR in the NFL - Replaced their previous RB2, with a more exciting version - Made Rodgers the highest paid QB in NFL history - Spent 3rd round draft picks on TEs Aaron Rodgers has done the following: - Brought team to NFCCG multiple years What the Packers team has accomplished: - They were the best offense in football last year What Aaron Rodgers reportedly wants: - More money + a long term commitment - More weapons My thoughts: - In the midst of a pandemic, in a year the salary cap was crunched, Aaron Rodgers is only showing he only cares about himself. During the pandemic, I elected to take a pay cut to help my team. I worked more hours and got paid 25% less for 6 months of 2020 to avoid having to cut members of my team. As a manager/leader that is what I CHOSE to do. Nothing is ever enough for Aaron Rodgers. Is he potentially the greatest QB the Packers organization will ever have? Yes. Do I love him for his on the field abilities? Yes. But I am so sick of him only caring about himself. My solution: - Move on from this prima donna and do it in the most FU way possible. Refuse to trade him. Force him to sit out and gain team enemies as he makes 30 mil to sit out over being butt hurt like an actual child. Trade him to the team that finishes last next year, with no supporting cast where he can get his money and be miserable. Get a boatload for him. Call this a rebuilding year as Love gets ready and hope he is the next Mahomes. If everything we are reading is true, which I do not fully believe everything, I am OVER Aaron Rodgers being a Green Bay Packer and his teammates should be as well. We are all going to have strong opinions here and no one is right or wrong. This is just how I personally feel. I have been looking forward to draft day for 3 months. He is so selfish, he took that away from his fans and teammates for his own gains. If I was a current teammate of Aaron Rodgers, I do not care how much the team "effed" him over, I feel personally "effed" over by him. [/QUOTE]
