He could at least take her out on Lake Minnetonka with some strippers.
He hate me.
Or home to his hottub.
I like how when everyone in the world, from every demographic and culture and country and walk of life comes in - really, an amazing unity where the entire world holds hands and sings cumbaya - when we all come together to tell Dio he’s crazy and full of shit, his response is “well of course! You’re all Packer fans! You’re part of the conspiracy!”
Anyway, maybe he just habitually avoids cameras. I would. The cameraman was standing right next to her, so maybe he was making an effort to avoid contact with some bullshit sports reporter and not the woman.
Aaron Rodgers cut the hole in the Metrodome roof. Donald Driver slipped the ref a two-headed coin so the Vikes would be bound to lose the coin toss in overtime against the Saints in the playoffs last year. Shannon Sharpe told Gary Anderson there was no God right before the NFC Championship game in 1998.
I’d say something about all the lost Super Bowls but that was Buffalo’s fault, and they got a karma payback.
I hate he.
You know, Rodgers is right, fuck cancer patients.
I don’t believe that that’s what you wish. I believe you are being dishonest.
But gently, as a warm zephyr caresses sakura blossoms in their full flower.
I particularly liked this quote
From here
Why does Rodgers owe any fan anything special? I’ve met athletes and musicians on countless occassions, most of the time they’re gracious and willing to shake my hand and sign stuff, sometimes they’re not. They’re usually more receptive to it in a situation where they expect to meet with fans, like after a show/game, at a signing, etc. If he’s getting off a plane, unless there’s a specific signing event, which there obviously wasn’t, why does he still have that obligation? To me, that’s no different than if she kinda stood there expectantly as he walked by while he was buying groceriies.
Beyond that, even if he knew she was there, what if he was tired or had a headache or had some personal issues he was dealing with or just plain wasn’t in a good mood? I’ve been blown off in official signing events cough Yngwie cough and that’s jerkish, but I’ve also been blown off at unofficial things when they weren’t feeling well, and that’s understandable.
Bottom line, they’re human beings too, who make mistakes and aren’t always in the most chipper of moods. Yes, they’re in the spot light and celebrities, that’s part of the job description as an NFL quarterback, but expecting him to be ready to deal with fans 24/7 is just silly. And assuming the worst possible reasoning for a pretty minor faux pas is utterly ridiculous.
"“Well, Jen is a great fan and we have an incredible fan base that travels well and would like to thank all the fans that showed up in Atlanta. We had a ton of fans at the airport and a ton of fans that came back. I’ve met Jen on previous occasions, I’ve signed for her, and as the video shows on this trip I didn’t see her and I didn’t sign for her. This kinda has turned into something I didn’t really expect but I think the people of Green Bay know how I feel about them and how much I appreciate their support. This turned into something I didn’t really expect.”
Is this an actual quote from Rodgers that you found, or is that what you’d like to hear him say in response?
It’s a quote. (Not linking to Google for snark, just highlighting what a neat tool it is.)
Rodgers was on the Dan Patrick show this morning. It’s his words.
why did you leave off the rest of the quote Hamlet:
“…Plus, I just hate cancer patients.”
“Rodgers then went on to say he had to go buy a puppy so he could kick it.”
So we’re now supposed to hate the guy based on a videotape that doesn’t exist?
He already knew? How? Certainly he never signed things for her since he hate cancer patients.
Are we really talking about autographs?! - ESPN - NFL Nation- ESPN (from Hamlet)
Must he acknowledge every irritating, desperate, celebrity starved grunt who sticks a pen in his face when he tries to move between two points? Why? Do you perhaps, maybe, possibly, perchance think he legitimately missed her? Do you think that perhaps, maybe, possibly, perchance the guy was in a hurry; or on occasion doesn’t want to acknowledge every one of the thousands of fleas begging for something from him to give their life more meaning? Do you think that’s possible instead? Or are you just trolling with this thread. I know you can reason things out, so trolling is the only solution that makes sense.
I don’t believe he didn’t see her. He just didn’t want to bother this time, which is fine, but he should have just given her a “Hi, Jen” or something as he walked by. I’ve said over and over that he didn’t have to sign anything, just acknowledge her humanity.
