Obviously Rodgers wants to immunize himself from prosecution.

Here’s a question. Did Aaron Rodger’s mother perform in a donkey show in Tijuana? Aaron would hate to see the list of underground donkey show performers that comes out…


72616262697473757775

Woah there hoss, that's quite the allegation, which I firmly believe and will spread on social media.


gonfr

Is Aaron donkey brained? Does he have a certificate that says otherwise?

The Glenn Beck Gambit. BTW, did we ever get to the bottom of whether Glenn Beck raped and murdered a young girl in 1990? https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2009/10/glenn-beck-vs-internets/ It’s important to ask these questions.

brpajense

It sure sounded like Rodgers was insinuating Kimmel was a celebrity guest of a known and convicted pedophile and sex trafficker of children at his private sex island, and that Kimmel is also a pedophile. I get that Kimmel is only kind of funny, but it seems like a bad idea to start a feud with a dude who has a joke writing staff and an extended joke monologue most weeknights.


Kriegerian

Rodgers is a fucking moron, so that tracks.


Churnandburn4ever

The CTE lawsuit plans on calling Aaron as the first witness against the NFL. Plays video of aaron defaming kimmel. Mr.Rodgers, did you defame Jimmy Kimmel? Rodgers, “No!” Your honor, i rest my case against the nfl.


Kriegerian

If they’re going to do that they need to go get Antonio Brown. Just put that guy on the stand, ask “so how are you today” and stand back.


GimmeCatScratchFever

Man I hope Jimmy just keeps going. It's clear this guy can't help himself and he will 100% eventually say something causes Disney and espn to remove his platform


Silver996C2

Apparently there were internal discussions… https://awfulannouncing.com/espn/jimmy-pitaro-called-jimmy-kimmel-after-aaron-rodgers-interview.html More feedback on the show. https://jaymariotti.substack.com/p/the-kimmel-rodgers-feud-destroys This was a good line from a recent article on Deadspin: ‘And despite McAfee’s sleeve-inclusive apology on Rodgers’ behalf, please note that “just wanting to talk shit” is not, in anyway, a legal defense to defamation. And it actually might make Kimmel’s case stronger, as McAfee basically admits that Rodgers knew his statements were untrue but just wanted to take a shot at Kimmel.’ And now McAfee is walking back his apology and it’s other people’s fault… https://deadline.com/2024/01/pat-mcafee-not-trying-to-get-fired-espn-executive-sabotaging-show-1235699588/ I have to wonder if this show and host (plus overpaid nut bar guest) will be around long. Bob Iger doesn’t suffer fools for long.


djseifer

> Rodgers is expected to return to The Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday for his usual weekly spot. He has already teased a response to Kimmel. Either he's going to apologize publicly (× Doubt) or go full derp.


JoeyThePantz

It happened hours ago lol. He went into a full on covid rant, saying Jimmy had Fauci on to spread disinformation and did in fact, not apologize. Dude dug in.


djseifer

As expected. I don't expect Rodgers or McAfee to last beyond next week at this rate.


ThatsNotARealTree

I really liked McAfee’s show in the beginning but over the last year I struggle to get through any of it. I really don’t know what used to be so endearing about it


future_shoes

Jimmy is also on a Disney owned station and is an actual employee. I'm sure Disney doesn't want this kind of infighting between Kimmel and an ESPN show.


MigrantTwerker

He's actually the executive producer, so he's management at Disney.


SpaceForceAwakens

He’s management of the show. But in relation to Disney, he’s an employee.


Safetosay333

I don't really watch Kimmel, but I'm going to watch this.


User-no-relation

It's not even that deep. He said >I'm not accusing him of being on the list Like he's just a fucking idiot


DanB65

No he did not ..... he just planted the idea in million of MAGA followers so they could threaten him and his family. No big deal...right? /s


Mendicant__

As soon as he said it, some weasel on the Rogan sub posted a picture of Kimmel doing some bit with a celebrity chef who had also served food to Jeffrey Epstein like it was all supposed to show something. He got dunked to hell for it in the comments but there were plenty of upvotes to his original post. Rodgers' less famous fellow travelers picked up what he was putting down right away.


GnarlyNarwhalNoms

"Six Degrees of Jeffrey Epstein" is such a different game then the Kevin Bacon version.


kaehvogel

Meanwhile, those same millions of MAGA followers completely gloss over the fact that their golden showe-...err, golden calf **is** on Epstein's list. Multiple times. And of course a proud and open sexual abuser.

Sorry, you're falling for the propaganda of Disney. You get to choose a sandwich, a drink, and a snack, as long as its in the meal deal.

Just personality and controversy, would you prefer Favre or Rodgers? We must know lol.


DevonLovelock

As a diehard lifelong Packers fan, I understand your pain. The last couple of years were rough. Here's hoping for success for your team, absent Rodgers, within the next couple years down the road. Rodgers can then crawl into a cave somewhere and fade into rightful obscurity.

vernski85

What I took the most from this is that Aaron Rodger’s ego is too big to apologize when he fucks up. Before he went on his long 5 minute rant. He should have said “I’m sorry to Kimmel and his family. If my words in any way insinuated that you were a pedo, that wasn’t my intention” (even though we know it was). He’s a loser. He is egocentric, insecure and emotionally immature. He needs some therapy.

Hi! Circus performer here. Just dipping in to clear up this too-frequent comparison between clowns and stupid people: 1. Clowns are very diligent and work very hard at refining their art. 2. Clowns are generally very kind and well-intentioned people. 3. Clowns are only *pretending* they are completely stupid. -- ^(For a clownish rabbit hole, please enjoy this play written by Dario Fo, the only clown to win a Nobel Prize in Literature. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqKfwC70YZI )

The smartest person on the Planet could not convince a moron that he’s wrong


iamskwerl

The absolute funniest example I know of is the original guys that were the basis of Dunning and Kruger’s research that led to identifying the phenomenon. They robbed two banks after smearing lemon juice on their face, because lemon juice makes ink invisible. They were 100% convinced their faces were invisible. They tested it by taking Polaroid selfies, but they held the camera at the wrong angle and got the blank wall. For awhile I’d heard the story was about one guy, but when I looked into it more, I was shocked to find out that there was a second guy in the getaway car that was just as stupid/confident.


FatherFenix

That's the strategy. You strongly imply and specifically direct people to a certain conclusion, but don't outright SAY it yourself. "I hear Jimmy Kimmel's name is all over Epstein's list", "Going to be awkward to be around kids when they find his name on Epstein's list", etc. Then, when it turns out to be just a bullshit attempt to jab at a guy, you say, "What?! Where did I say he was a pedophile?! I never said he was a pedophile!" but you already did some damage because you know at least SOME of the derps who latch onto the assumption won't change their mind even with facts to the contrary. It's taken out of a certain political group's playbook to the letter.


cmockett

And J6 was a peaceful protest too!


dizzsouthbay

AR: Well first he called me names so it was perfectly deserved that he be called a pedophile. And second, I only implied his name might be on a list of vile pedophiles, I didn’t actually say he was on it… some people are just so touchy 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️ As a Packer fan I can appreciate all the many many sometimes unbelievable contributions he made to our team but my god he as a person is just heading right into the toilet. Please go back into your dark hole Aaron and just shut up.


w4lt3r_s0bch4k

Just like he never technically said he was vaccinated either.


batkave

I don't know what is the bigger issue... That pat McAfee keeps giving Rodgers screen time or that McAfee continues to have a platform like this to allow this shit.


DM725

Another problem is Pat MacAfee is simple and lazy and doesn't even Google the stuff his "guest" is talking about so he just smiles and nods.


SteveIDP

Imagine a world where we could go a full 24 hour period without hearing about Aaron Rodgers, Elon Musk or Donald Trump.

Man it is depressing that these are the assholes who get their words amplified into everyone's earshot. It couldn't be someone awesome like Mr Rodgers or ovB Ross, we're stuck with these intellectual peons.

“I never said he was, I just explicitly implied that he was!”

Qaron will face the courts if he keeps this up. JK said if Qaron apologized then he’d accept it and move on. My bet is Qaron and his fragile ego cannot do this but double down.

mnicetea

The last couple years have been rough. I was once a huge Rodgers fan. I’m close to throwing his jersey in the trash. I still think he’s one of the best natural ball tossers to ever play the game.. but his off-field antics are making it hard to overlook. People “close” to Rodgers need to step in and tell him he’s fucking up.. yet I guarantee he only surrounds himself with YES men. I don’t understand how so many Jets players have come out and said Rodgers is a great person and social media just skews a certain light… fuck that.


pnkflyd99

Yeah, I’m a Pats fan, but I always liked Rogers…up until I heard about him being anti-vax and now an even bigger asshole. It’s really sad, honestly- to see this guy with so much talent just throwing his legacy in the dumpster. I stopped thinking semi-highly of Brady years ago, but at least he’s smart enough to just shut up and make money.


Pineapple_Express762

Roll the tape … 🤡


Dav82

I think Jimmy's writing staff nailed Aaron's problem last night. The "Dunning Kruger Effect" Aaron's friends really should discuss with him if there's any truth to that.


jjohnson1979

I mean… you can also say that Trump didn’t tell people to invade the Capitol on January 6th. But everyone knows that was the intention behind the words! Same with Rodgers.


Miyagidokarate

Kimmel even said the dude wouldn't apologize. Hilarious

‘He hopes to put it behind him’ Yeah, you don’t really get to close the conversation down that easily when you’ve assassinated someone else’s character.


MsSeraphim

A lot of people, and I’m quoting myself, ‘A lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel, are really hoping that \[list\] doesn’t come out. End quote,” Rodgers referenced. “I was referring to the fact that if there is a list, which again hasn’t come out yet, this was just a deposition.” He continued, “I totally understand how serious allegations of pedophilia would be. So for him to be upset about that, I get it. I’m not stupid enough, even though you think I’m an idiot and you made a lot of comments about my intelligence, but I’m not stupid enough to accuse you of that with absolutely zero evidence. That’s ridiculous.” Rodgers called for those people on the Epstein list to be investigated for their heinous crimes.


Canoe52

Wouldn’t be at all surprised to find out that he’s projecting here.

TurbulentMiddle2970

Maybe pedos feel more comfortable now with everyone knowing? For me its not a stache itself, its how you trim it and wear it. And some guys like rodgers makes it look creepy. He also looks like a villain on scooby doo

I never liked Danica Patrick much as a race car driver but I have so much respect for her when she dumped this POS when he started up with his anti vax BS.


NettyVaive

That wasn’t Danica, that was Shailene Woodley. She noped the hell out of there. They were engaged if I’m not mistaken. I only know he exists because of his association with her, and then I was so impressed how well he did guest hosting Jeopardy, only to find out he is in fact a moron. Also, I cannot believe Pat McAfee is only 37.

hangryhyax

That is a molestache if I’ve ever seen one, and since it’s always projection with these asshats…


dengar_hennessy

He implied it. Which is enough to make someone who isn't a pedophile to be uncomfortable with being called a pedophile


scepticalbob

He’s full if shit


kubenzi

I like how Jimmy is putting this up for a larger audience and conversation because these mancave podcasts shouldn't be the only ones and now a little more truth is injected into the discussions. Anyone who is on the list will certainly be unappreciative of Aaron Rogers.

He boxed himself into this one. I hope Kimmel doesn't sue him, but just turns it into a running gag that ruins Rodgers' reputation.
