its also funny because there were a number of anti vaxx athletes out there including some fellow starting QBs and nobody remembers who any of them were (except Kyrie lol), in fact it's almost an understandable position for them, like I'm in peak physical shape do I really need this? instead Rodgers goes "uhhh yeah I'm immunized" talking about some insane herbal treatment he was doing, got caught lying and just immediately became *this guy*

yeah he couldve even stopped then and salvaged his image but he kept going on podcasts and saying increasingly dumb bad things
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 18:40 (six months ago) link
he was considered a smart interesting guy, the alt qb, but it turned out he was a total effin idiot, which we found out because of podcasts

Kirk Cousins didn't get vaccinated presumably for weirdo Christian reasons and everyone forgot cuz he just kept up his aw shuck routine and just kept saying it's a private medical decision and I respect everyone's rights to make those decisions blah blah blah

im sure a bunch of athletes just kept it secret which is obvs the best choice if you can get away with it, kyrie was only outed cause of a ny workplace rule

It was a bad sign when he wanted to be the jeopardy host.

iirc that was during a contract negotiation? like he was trying to scare the Packers into thinking he was just gonna be the next host of Jeopardy instead of playing footback...frogbs correct me if i'm wrong
― Blues Guitar Solo Heatmap (Free Download) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 19 March 2024 18:53 (six months ago) link
it was indeed during negotiations but I don't think there was any risk of him actually quitting football. I think he just wanted to do it once. he wasn't terrible at it either
― frogbs, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 18:55 (six months ago) link
for me the bad sign is when these stories started coming out about him being a diva on the Packers and mysteriously shutting his entire family out of his life and he responded to it all by just saying "oh they're all just jealous haters". outside of Bears fans Rodgers didn't really have haters back then. he sure as hell has 'em now though
― frogbs, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 18:57 (six months ago) link
feel the signs he was a jerk were always there, that look he has when he's pissed that teammates or coaches have let him down (again), always got a bad vibe.

apparently even the conspiracy nut stuff had leaked out to people in the know but i dont follow football closely so i had no idea just got the aaron rogers is smart and good storyline
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 19:02 (six months ago) link
xp you can get away with that when you've won a championship and are taking your team to the playoffs every year, but yeah it comes off a lot differently when you're not playing well and even Dan Orvlosky is starting to question why you're just throwing to the same 2 guys over and over.
― frogbs, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 19:08 (six months ago) link
also its hilarious how thoroughly he trashed his legacy and public perception with this, like whenever he's brought up people now think of the conspiracy wacko first and the football player second. its crazy because he's still in the league and it really wasn't all that long ago he won back to back MVPs. I mean he isn't Joe Flacco or Matt Ryan, he's arguably the best regular season QB ever and now he's just permanently known as "oh this fuckin guy". could've been avoided but I guess the allure of the podcast was just too much for him to handle
― frogbs, Tuesday, 19 March 2024 22:26 (six months ago) link

a bunch of articles have just floated by about Larry Ellison being just as much of a shithead doing many of the same things as Elon, some worse, but people don’t care because he’s not tweeting. buying 90% of a hawaiian island and wrecking it for the inhabitants he seems to be trying to force into indentured servitude, but he doesn’t tweet about it. bill gates used to draw big heat but mostly because everyone had to use windows

A self driving @Tesla drove straight into my parked car in a residential area and Tesla Insurance has no way to directly contact them so I am stuck with no car and a Tesla adjuster not returning any calls for nearly a week. @elonmusk your cars, app and insurance suck.— Drunk Uncle (@DrunkUncleATX) March 19, 2024

Toxicology reports came back on Angela Chao who drowned on her 900 acre ranch after reversing her $TSLA into a lake (after a Pitbull concert) and her BAC was 0.233 (vs TX legal limit 0.08), Elon must be elated it wasn't a vehicle error.

White was for several years the only Tesla color that wasn't $1,000-$2,500 extra cost which made it more popular. Black was originally the one no-extra-cost color; now it appears that grey is.
― Lee626, Sunday, 24 March 2024 23:12 (six months ago) link
it's not the reason, but it'd be funny if the unfinished look was meant to be a prompt for people to wrap or paint their own vehicles because Elon refuses to let them do an interesting color on the other models
