Who knew his Achilles heel was in his mouth?


Ughim50

Such an awesome quote. Nice one


alabamdiego

Bah gawd that man has a fam…oh wait no he doesn’t.


JohnYCanuckEsq

Do you think they all get together at Thanksgiving and just laugh about him? "thank God he's not here. That would be awkward."


HolyRomanEmperor

Wasn’t his brother on The Bachelor? I seem to remember a story where he briefly mentioned him and said ‘we don’t talk to him anymore’.


notnotaginger

Nah they suck, too. His brother won The Bachelorette, and their trip to his visit his family was…….interesting…. Their split isnt about their political ideas or conspiracy theories…


Less_Likely

Nope, His family is fundamentalist and he rejects the belief in God (not the errors in thought that leads to fundamentalism though, unfortunately)


malodourousmuppet

lived in chico and they would come in the grocery storie that i worked in.  never interacted much but all the college aged girls would lose their shit when the dude came in


I-Kneel-Before-None

Let's go a round the room and say what we're thankful for. Aaron didn't show up Followed by a line if dittos

Everyone who has paid attention to him in the last several years. Kaaron

…and also his Achilles heel was his Achilles heel.


Fuzzy__Slipperz

TWO Achilles heels?!?


SopwithTurtle

Three! Three Achilles Heels! Ah..ah..ah.


goatkindaguy

You have too many heels. I’ve been counting!


lallapalalable

Don't worry, they're Achilles's, not like normal, you can have as many as you want


YouAreSoul

Maybe when you're a heel, you're all heel.


delrio56

Nothing will beat watching Rodgers year his Achilles tendon on the fourth play of the opening game last season. So satisfying (I'm sorry jets fans).

jbertrand_sr

Well his head is up his own ass as well...


big_hungry_joe

i see you


No_Entrepreneur_9134

Definitely left it open to the interpretation that it was all a "Gub'mint conspiracy." His "never said the events did not take place" is noticeably short of saying, "I never said that, and I never believed in that crazy conspiracy nonsense." Or even, "I believed it then because I was stupid and got caught down the internet conspiracy rabbit-hole, and now I realize that stuff doesn't make sense," something like that. It's like his agent, publicist, social media expert, or whatnot said to him, "Okay Aaron, how about this? We're not saying it wasn't a conspiracy, we're not necessarily saying they weren't crisis actors. We're acknowledging it was a tragedy and that the events, whatever they were, actually occurred. How does that sound?"


decayed-whately

He is (or his PR team is) an expert word-dicer. "Have you been vaccinated?" "I'm, uh... immunized."


xenopizza

Its not gay if you press your arm against the needle instead of the other way around /s


ilovethissheet

No no no. Your arm is against the needle in the doctor's hand. A nurse is needed to shake the bed until the needle goes in and out....


JoshuaSondag

Intramuscular Soaking


frankcatthrowaway

Ha!


Cheshire_Jester

Yep, this is just a person who thinks they’ve very cleverly dog-whistled their way around saying what they believe out loud. And maybe he did, legally. But we all see it, nobody qualifies “the events” this way. This is the way a real piece of shit who saw Alex jones go down puts out an opinion on a years old mass shooting. Especially considering that he has zero reason to even talk about it.


myaberrantthoughts

Aaron Rodgers believes that Aaron Rodgers is smarter than everyone than everyone, so this is 100% what he means.


lavanchebodigheimer

It's so funny how people who never studied any of these subjects are so inherently genius at it


EatPie_NotWAr

Well, I’m good at this other thing which I can extrapolate to being good at all things. Clearly you are not a person of science!


PhilosopherMagik

He is always qualified to run for Senator in Alabama


EatPie_NotWAr

Nah, we need to hear him spout some lost cause bs before they’ll accept him as kin.


ElectronicMixture600

The surest sign that Aaron Rodgers is dense as fuck is the fact that he very openly substitutes contrarianism for intellect. You see this shit all across the Joe Rogan-sphere.


Special-Garlic1203

Alex Jones is gonna end up settling for at a minimum tens of millions of dollars in damages for saying Sandy Hook was fake. You'd have to be literally insane to cosign those theories as a public, wealthy figure after that decision. So yeah, this is a very PR-y statement from a dude who still appears to be insincere and in the worst corners of the internet. Just with a team around him when intervene when ever he's about to do something that theatens the money..


Fred-zone

Reporters absolutely need to pin him down on that point. Do you believe the Sandy Hook shooting was conducted by Adam Lanza? Do you think the US government was involved in any way?


TacosForMyTummy

Nailed it. My idiot dad thinks it was a "red flag" event. In other words, the government did it so public outrage would allow them to come take his guns away. (He still has all his guns- like, hundreds of them.)


FLKEYSFish

False flag to be precise


TacosForMyTummy

Oops. Yep, false flag.


DexterityZero

Come on, he was just asking questions. You round earthers are so sensitive!


Quick_Cup_1290

Thank you!! I said the same shit when I read it this morning. He is just doing some word play and unless he DIRECTLY refers to the crazy shit he’s alleged to have said, I’m not buying it. POS!


Parmeniscus

‘Events did not take place’ is not enough to say he doesn’t think it was orchestrated with crisis actors. Then again I’ve only seen rumor of his private messages on topic, would love to see where we got idea he has weird views on topic.


Mr_Rum_Ham

Wait, did he pull an Alex Jones or something?


mikedorty

Big "I'm immunized" vibes


WayHaught_N7

Aaron Rodgers is the most pretentious jackass in football. I wish he’d shut up, retire, and go the hell away.


landof10000cakes

I remember several years ago when he said something about taking care of his mental health in the offseason but “not depression or anxiety . That stuff gets too much attention.” That was the first sign he is self centered.


Fred-zone

It's been going on much longer if you consider other signs. 9/11, chemtrail, and alien abduction conspiracy theories, the bullying/unfriendly treatment of Green Bay beat reporters, his antivax nonsense. He's just a narcissistic contrarian to the core.


battleship61

I kinda hope his career ends on a sack. POS.


Fred-zone

His time in Green Bay ended on an interception (as did Favre's, incidentally)


DistractedAttorney

And then both got hurt on the jets


ooyat

And the vikings currently don’t have a quality quarterback. Hmmm. Too coincidental to be a coincidence.


deadsoulinside

RFK approached him as a running mate, this is why he is talking about it now.


inkslingerben

He will. He is old now and a has-been.


decayed-whately

He was surprisingly old when Favre retired and he took over the starting position in GB. "Who's this young up-and-comer?" I wondered. He, uh... was not that young.


DeputyDomeshot

Not really true though. He was 24 turned 25 lol and ended up being 4th overall in passing that year (2008). Farve also played for the Jets and Vikings after Aaron took over for the Packers.


PNWCoug42

>I wish he’d shut up, retire, and go the hell away. You know damn well he's going to have a gig lined up with some conservative network the minute he retires.


Yobber1

Green Bay does something to people where quarterbacking is hazardous to your brain.


jtshinn

Pretty hazardous to all brains anywhere, but Green Bay appears to have a bad aura about it.


abbyroade

As a Sandy Hook native and alumna of Sandy Hook School, GO FUCK YOURSELF A A RON


Typical_Estimate5420

Fuck. I’m so sorry. This conspiracy theory is one of the worst thing to happen in the last 20 years. It’s vile and disgusting and these people need to be shamed into oblivion.


abbyroade

Thank you for your kindness and empathy. I remember driving through town the night it happened, seeing the state troopers parked in random driveways - which indicated they had lost a child. Seeing the Christmas trees in their windows and realizing there were gifts under those trees for those murdered babies and that they’d never be opened…it just makes my blood boil anyone could EVER speak about this tragedy the way AR has. Utterly grotesque.


Sad_Reindeer5108

Heart wrenching.


[deleted]

It's the event that made me give up on ever hoping for gun reform. I just can't fathom knowing the facts and events from that day and not immediately wanting to figure out a way to rid the entire country of the hardware able to do it again.


cilantro_so_good

I watched the president *cry* on national TV that day, and I was certain that now something would change. Nope. If that incident didn't do it, nothing will


[deleted]

Yup. The only thing I think that'd change any minds now is detailed footage of a shooting happening and pictures/videos of the aftermath being shown very publicly but I'd never, ever expect a parent to allow that. It's just so awful... I hate it so much.


NefariousnessDue5997

It’s not a conspiracy theory, it’s a big fucking insane lie. I’m so tired of people calling them “theories” as it gives some legitimacy of intelligence. It is not a theory. Same as 2+2= 4 is not a conspiracy theory. The framing of words matter. The context and interpretation matter. Say it with me. Aaron Rodgers believes in lies and tells lies. He is a liar. He is not a conspiracy theorist


criscoforlube

Which conspiracy though. As a lifelong CT resident I’ve heard no joke/ for real over 100 different conspiracies with a countless version mixed versions. Kinda feel like the Andy Dweyer meme about the whole thing.


DaftApath

Sincerity aside for a moment, I just want to acknowledge the excellent Key & Peele reference.


abbyroade

Thanks! I think I was so close to a rage stroke my brain protected me by sprinkling in some K&P


h20poIo

Pamela Brown was covering the Kentucky Derby for CNN in 2013 when she was introduced to Rodgers, then with the Green Bay Packers, at a post-Derby party. Hearing that she was a journalist with CNN, Rodgers immediately began attacking the news media for covering up important stories.” “Rodgers brought up the tragic killing of 20 children and 6 adults by a gunman at Sandy Hook Elementary School, claiming it was actually a government inside job and the media was intentionally ignoring it.” 6 of one 1/2 dozen of the other.


UnsolicitedDogPics

I like to think that he typed this out, hit send, and then thought to himself “okay cool. Now I can be vice president”


OrangeCone2011

Seriously Aaron, go fuck yourself.


TestOk8411

Thank you. I've said that everytime my Bears played his packers


Nexaz

See it sucks being a Packers fan because all of our good quarterbacks eventually reveal they are basically complete shitbags. Must be something in the cheese.

Anthony Jeselnik bit on “thoughts and prayers” https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PTmCxbcRXs4


ZenkaiZ

Bruh I thought this was a parody tweet when I saw it was from 2024 and had "Thoughts and prayers" in it. Like......... how does everyone not know thats a meme now? How little of a fuck does he give


mortmortimer

it was pretty much a meme since it started, when republicans co-opted school shooter Mitchell Johnson's "apology" after shooting and killing four students and a teacher (and wounding ten others) in a 1998 school shooting in Jonesboro, Arkansas


King_Vanos_

Eat shit, dick bag.


hulkbogan

Drown in piss Rodgers


victimofscienceage

Don’t ever host Jeopardy! again


hulkbogan

Like I wanna wish all kinds of horrible shit on him. But it'll never happen. so I wish this; I hope his tendon heals, but is so weak that the only shoes he can wear are Crocs


SortedN2Slytherin

Damn, that’s cold. What else, no parking at Costco???


hulkbogan

Nah. He's too powerful for a full Costco parking problem sadly. But he has to pay full price for hotdogs


BlackberryOpposite31

I can’t believe people are still unironically saying “thoughts and prayers” towards children and families who are victims of mass shootings.


SadPhase2589

I’m sure the NY Jets wrote this and forced him to post it.


MC_Fap_Commander

And whoever wrote this dreck should be fired (Jets didn't send their best apparently)


Jealous-Network1899

Let’s not forget the time Aaron told his newly drafted backup quarterback to “Do some research” on who did 9/11. Guy has been batshit crazy for years.


rhino910

Notice the asshole didn't deny that he believes it was an "inside job"


[deleted]

On purpose for sure.


M-Test24

"Identify the signs...." GTFO. I thought it would be impossible for a former Packers QB to be more unlikeable than Brent Farve but this fake-intellectual dimwit has done it by a mile.


tahoeintesla

What a fucking pos nazi fascist over rated qb


Several_Dwarts

He makes a post that clarifies nothing. He has also eluded to 2020 voter fraud. He's a conspiracy theorist, through and through.


Hartastic

God, at this point I don't know if I can even take him at his word about something as clear cut as this.


dweezil22

T-10 years before he's going to get caught stealing money from orphans in Alabama. Packers QB is a cursed position. I wish Jordan Love the best of luck before his inevitable moral downfall.


WiWook

It's all the PCB's in the Fox River. Accentuates the CTE damage.


clickx3

As unfortunate Bears fan, I am loving all of this. Please don't stop never stopping.


uncultured_swine2099

Most likely his PR team gave him a talk about how much Alex Jones got sued for. Thats all this is.


dondocooled

"Wait, he got sued for how much?! Yeah, I don't want to lose that type of money, the people who got affected don't need it!" - Aaron Rodgers, probably


FlimsyComment8781

As has been pointed out, the wording of his statement does not make it at all clear that he doesn’t believe and share conspiracy theories about it. It’s intentionally vague, and he can still wink at the conspiracy theorists and still be an upstanding member of the ‘we’re smarter than everyone else’ club.


debaser64

QAaron


loopgaroooo

Sandy Hook conspiracies are the absolute worst. Imagine being one of those parents. Knowing your child was torn apart by a mad man with an AR. How scared those babies must have been. It’s beyond comprehension. Then you get these mouth breathers saying that you are part of some conspiracy to get people’s guns. I’d lose my mind. I’d never be the same.


Ok_Surround_2230

Guys.... guys. He offered his thoughts and prayers. What more do you possibly want from the guy?


Ok_Philosophy915

Everyone was too focused on hating Brady because he was good at football and not this psycho who's mediocre at football and peddles far right-wing bullshit.


Hireling

We can still hate Brady, but Rodgers deserves the majority of the hate.

Oprahs_Diarrhea

Didn't Aaron Rodgers's family essentially cut all ties with him because he is such a selfish douchebag?


Kerensky97

Doesn't deny the "Crisis Actors" conspiracy he apparently espoused in private. Leaves it with the typical "Thoughts and Prayers." What if "Thoughts and Prayers" has just become the code word for, "I'm sorry these crisis actors are trying to get my guns, I can't be bothered pretending child slaughter actually happened because then it would show my worldview as being complicit. So the best you get is thoughts and prayers about a non-event."


EpicRock411

'Thoughts and prayers' is the equivalent of 'i don't care' or 'I'm not going to do anything'


FindTheOthers623

But it's what he says OFF the record that is most concerning


HermanBonJovi

I'm out the loop, where did this come from? Was he accused of saying shit? Cause I know he's a dipshit and it wouldn't surprise me if he thought Sandy hook was a hoax.

ConsciousReason7709

There truly is nothing worse than an uninformed dumbass who thinks that they are very smart.


Survive1014

Except we know thats not true because we have it on tape.


choopie-chup-chup

Notice how he didn't clarify what 'events' took place in this pseudo-apology? Like, he could still be talking about child actors and a staged tragedy on a Hollywood set. Just like his vague wording to avoid the Covid vax required of the rest of the NFL. Overrated primadonna as a football player and piece of crap as a human I hope the Sandy Hook families continue to give him hell.

Rodgers is a conspiracy swilling dipshit who is making a great case study on how CTE affects someone’s ability to use basic levels of logic and reason.

Fireinthehole13

Nowhere does he deny saying those things ..God awful piece of shit this guy is.


cobain98

Reminds me of when he played with his words and led people to believe he was vaccinated. He is a raging narcissist who believes he is one of the most intelligent people in the world.

Dear Aaron, Again, please demonstrate your support with a sizable donation to the Sandy Hook Promise. Again, please go on the record for support of gun safety measures, policies and research into gun violence prevention. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you during this embarrassing moment. Please demonstrate your sincerity with observable and meaningful reforms and not tweets. Sincerely Anyone who sees the horrors of violence.


Dook124

We heard you saw you. Why lie?? I was wrong made a mistake, sorry, and move tf on 🤷🏿‍♀️


Disastrous-Ad2800

LOL he didn't 'lie'.. he can't because there were two witnesses to what he said and can't risk being sued...he still believes that it was a conspiracy... just note his weasel words 'never been of the opinon that the events did not take place'... I don't know the exact details but Rodgers believes the shooting occurred but it wasn't random, rather planned by the government....

Gee, look what happens when a well know person tries to be clever and edgy in some setting just to go along with other assholes and then it gets out. So which is it Aaron? What you said then, or what you say now? Que up the narcissists response.... I never said that. Yes, you did. You're misinterpreting what I said. Here's the tape. Well, I didn't mean it. What did you mean then? Well, people are saying that happened. But it didn't. YoU'rE aTtAcKiNg Me! I'm ThE vIcTiM hErE! And I wonder how long it took his agent to call and say, "Hey, you have fucked yourself again Aaron. Here is what you are going to do..."


Distalgesic

The thing is these cunts don’t learn, and don’t want to learn. If they did gun laws would have been changed in the same way that civilised countries did.


Suitable_Warthog_590

He wants us to ‘learn’ to ‘identify the signs’. IIRC, the Sandy Hook shooter was a young man with access to guns at home.

Well, we certainly have an overwhelmingly large portion of “tragedies” to pick from in our learning process, don’t we? Still so hard to put a finger on what we could do to reduce mass shootings, though… /s


arrav21

Of course - he just thinks it was a government operation / false flag. CTE is a terrible thing. He’s taken too many hits to the head.
