As I watched Aaron Rodgers not once think to towel himself off while podcast host Pat McAfee spent 56 minutes slobbering over him Wednesday, it occurred to me that we’re never going to be free of the quarterback. And when I say “we,’’ I don’t mean Chicago. I mean humankind.
Despite repeated protestations that it isn’t all about him, Rodgers couldn’t hide that his decision to play football for the Jets in 2023 rather than retire as a Packer has a lot to do with spite. And spite comes from ego, not from a love of football.
