Past is prologue

I’d like AR to stay and make them stew, but the fact he turned down that big deal is not good news for Pack fans.

Still doesn’t matter. (At least to me). He’s 38. Grow the fuck up. You’re a multimillionaire and got that way by playing a kids game and you know going in you’re going to be replaced someday. Cannot stress enough….grow up.

We are talking about today’s athletes. They are more disconnected from reality today than they have ever been. We can’t relate.

AR past is quite well known…the family stuff is kinda weird and wild…but everyone in that org is well aware of sensitives and ego. They mishandled it…just like the Texans mishandled Watson in promising to bring him into decision making and then not doing it.

Today athletes have more leverage and can apply more pressure. They are doing it

GB could have just picked up the phone and told him. Hey AR even though we know you won't like this, we're drafting a QB. I agree AR is being a bit of a bitch but it was also a case of sloppy handling by GB. They know him better than anyone, did they really think this was going to be received well?

A little communication goes a long way, especially with diva players. Then at least in the court of public opinion GB could have said, look, we told him what we were doing. We were upfront and honest about it. Now instead you have people taking his side.

Communication works both ways. Aarons idea of communication is “give me whatever I want when I want it or I’ll whine like a baby”. Sure that’s contributed to his wearing out his welcome there.

Yes we know AR is a diva, that's no surprise to anyone. That said do you think GB did everything right on their end?

Define “right”. Not being an ass….but seriously. Do you think his reaction would have been any different if they’d told him? What if they went into the draft seriously believing they had no shot at a QB and then Love fell to them? Do they have to call him and get permission before the draft Love? What if they told Aaron they were gonna take a QB and the draft played out in a way where they didn’t take one? That’s awkward too….then he’s like…”oh they want me gone but didn’t take anyone so I’m still gonna whine because know i “know” they don’t want me”. I was married to a diva once. Trust me there is a point where nothing you do makes them happy.

Do you think they handled the situation as well as they could have?

Is there anything they could have done differently, or is GB 100% not at fault here?

[sdskinsfan2001]

He's under contract through 2023. He ain't going anywhere for at least the next 2 seasons. Maybe they'll trade him when he only has 1 year left, but he isn't a spring chicken.

They can have him play out his contract then franchise tag him for at least 2024.

He will be there the rest of his career if GB wants.

Shut up and ball. No one likes a whiner.

A Aron is under contract for like 3 more years.

Love is under contract for 3+1 yr option.

GB has to do something. By all accounts, I imagine A Aron is gone after this year but he'll be 1 year older. Maybe he gets a significant injury this season.

GB doing their best skins impression with this one.

They should trade one ultimately. If not, eventually they will end up with neither and have to start over. Still confident an unhappy Rodgers will show up at camp and ready to go. Talk is cheap and he'll be playing.

It feels like a repeat of one Favre moved on.

Its hard when you have a aging superstar; its a balance of stroking that ego and long term success of the franchise.

The Celtics back in the day held on to Bird, McHale and Parrish way way to long, it set them back years doing that.

[punch it in]

AR should have won multiple superbowls with GB. The lack of talent around him throughout his career there has been lackluster at best. Im sorry but when you have that type of quarterback at the helm and you draft his replacement in the first round when he has several years left to play ,…well just a bad move. Why are you drafting for the future when your window was now? Are you telling me GB wasn’t a couple pieces from winning another title last year? Rodgers certainly was not the issue. If I was Rodgers Id wanna go somewhere where they are going to give me a chance to win more championships and if that makes me a diva cool.

Ryan Fitz and Sweat or Payne, next years 1st, 2023 2nd rounder

Give Rodgers the 2 year extension. So 5 years to dominate the NFC
