00:00
an update kind of on Aaron Rodgers he went on the Pat McAfee show yesterday formerly of the
00:06
Sports Grid Network and we thought maybe just maybe in that 10 plus minute interview he would
00:12
say where he is going to play football next season he did not in fact he kind of avoided the topic
00:19
all together he said he is still contemplating retirement focusing on his personal life it's not
00:25
about the money he has told teams that he would take a generous pay cut and play for only 10 million
00:31
dollars only 10 million dollars quote I'm open to anything and attached to nothing retirement could
00:38
still be a possibility focus on personal life shut up dude shut up you're 41 years shut up
00:47
yeah no look let's get to the basis of this whole argument right now if he really wanted to play
00:53
football he'd be on a team right now he's either trying to hold out hostage for somehow to get
00:57
Minnesota and backstab J.J. McCarthy and get him to be traded so he can take over Minnesota or again he
01:03
just doesn't care like the Pittsburgh Steelers are telling him right now look we got a quality
01:07
offense with some weapons over here we just need a quarterback we got a defense we have a history of
01:11
winning football games we haven't won a Super Bowl in a while maybe you could be the missing key and get
01:15
lightning in a bottle have a good season we can make a run into the playoffs and obviously that's
01:19
not nearly good enough for Aaron Rodgers or he'd already be there because the Pittsburgh Steelers
01:23
aren't coming out with Mike Tomlin is a very opinionated head coach and a good way and it's
01:27
refreshing which he's not saying we're not taking Aaron Rodgers like they clearly want Aaron Rodgers
01:32
the ownership group with the Roonies they're saying like hey we think we're in a good spot with Aaron
01:36
Rodgers do you understand what you're talking about now Pittsburgh Steelers you're in a good spot a
01:40
quarterback with absolutely no options in the NFL and you're trying to convince him to play quarterback
01:45
for you do you hear how that sounds it should be Aaron Rodgers actually already moving as I said to
01:50
Pittsburgh even if he didn't have a job with them and holding a sign outside the Steelers you know
01:55
practice facility will work for free I just want to play football and it's not happening right now but
02:00
also the Jets move Ben right where he flies cross country how many times do we take a look like a sales
02:06
meeting it's like you know what yeah I don't know if I still want Aaron Rodgers to be my quarterback
02:10
but I'm going to get him in the room and I just want to feel the vibes like Aaron Rodgers walked in
02:14
that building with Aaron Glenn and said I'm your quarterback you need me I need you let's figure
02:19
this out and let's get after it for the next two years I'll even help you if you draft a quarterback
02:24
but we can win here in New York and instead Aaron Rodgers probably showed up put his feet on the desk
02:29
and he's like you know you need me here but I'm not sure I want to be here and then you know Aaron
02:33
Glenn goes get the GM in here we're going in a different direction get out of here which is why Aaron
02:37
Rodgers goes you know what you could have told me that on the phone no that was actually a sales
02:41
opportunity for Aaron for him to actually get in the room with Aaron Glenn and sell him on the notion
02:46
that he still should be that quarterback not the other way around love what the Jets did
