One incident taken ouut of context doesn’t change all the good he has done. You should take this article down now that you realize you reacted too harshly. You lost credibility with me knowing all the charity work Aaron has done.

Which one is evil?
Killing dogs.
Or
Walking by a fan wanting an autograph.

The answer to that depends on whether you live in Filthydelphia or not.

Hey Mike where’s that article about the 300% increase in domestic violence after a PAckers loss?

I stopped hours before you posted that … and apologized and wished the Packers luck on Sunday. You need to read the other Rodgers thread, which is more recent than this one.

But for future reference, you should also know that when someone says your QB has done something–whether it’s being rude or whatever–it doesn’t fix the situation when you compare him to Vick and Roethlisberger. If I kill two people, it doesn’t make me a better person because someone else killed four. Nothing Vick and Roethlisberger have done or been accused of doing has anything to do with Rodgers.

As I said on the other thread, I made one minor comment on this thread and never would have said anything else if some jerk hadn’t started ripping all cancer patients and someone else hadn’t started in on Roethlisberger. As a cancer and rape survivor, I take those issues very seriously and neither of them should have been brought into this conversation–especially not in such an evil way. That’s what set me off. I shouldn’t have gotten into it or gotten so carried away. Even I can’t thumbs up some of my own posts. But I’m not the only one who has behaved badly here … even if I’m the only one willing to admit it.

Just stop. Your credibility was shot the first time you compared Rodgers to Big Ben. Guess what? Not signing an autograph and be accused TWICE of sexual assault are not the same thing. It doesn’t matter how many paragraphs you write, you’re still an idiot.

The video doesn’t lie. Go ahead and watch the second one. Oh, and feel free to go away as soon as possible. There’s only room on Mike’s ass for pervys’ lips.

You do!!

I posted about a change meeting I had with the author in New York last year. Interesting that it also got deleted.

Basically, the medical exam found nothing. It’s not humanly possible to have intercourse and leave nothing behind–not a pindrop of semen, not a single pubic hair, not any chemical from a condom. Besides, she said it was unprotected sex and even if a condom had been used, they still would have found at least a pindrop of semen (yes, I’m serious) and pubic hair.

All they found was two samples of DNA so small and so degraded they couldn’t be identified even using PCR testing, which is the most advanced method for amplifying minute samples. That would mean it was left behind from a previous encounter. Asked by the press if she’d had sex with anyone earlier in the day, the prosecutor said he couldn’t violate her privacy by commenting. Asked why he couldn’t proceed, he said, “The crime of rape has three elements: sexual intercourse, which requires penetration, forcibly, and against her will. All three elements, I’ve got a problem proving all three of those.” So … he couldn’t prove penetration because of the medical exam, nor could he prove force because witnesses at, I believe, three establishments had her pinching his buttocks, following him, and engaging him in graphic sexual conversation all evening. Beyond that, multiple witnesses put them out of sight together less than 10 minutes and both of them were falling-down drunk. Have no doubt they intended some hanky-panky. Doubt they could complete it. Or they did complete it and she chose to accuse him of something they didn’t do. She actually complained in one written statement that he just dumped her in the bathroom and left. I think that’s closer to the truth than anything else she said. Ben may be a dog, but if I could see her jailed, I would. Nothing excuses what those women did that night.

Yes, it’s a seedy business, but consensual. And many players get up to the same kind of seediness every week. If you haven’t read North Dallas Forty, you should. Nothing’s changed but the salaries. Think that’s what annoys me most. I know Ben and Favre’s seedy antics aren’t unique. Remember Brandon Underwood? And how many pals accompanied him to the strip club that night? Like I said, it’s the hypocrisy that makes me nuts.

As for Rodgers … I don’t think he deliberately ignored her. Think he was going head-down through the crowd trying to avoid everyone. Don’t know if he bumped into her or what, but I’m not sure from the film that it even registered with him that she was a cancer patient. It should have because she looked the part. But he looked startled and just hurried on.

We agree on Goodell’s overseas idiocy.

You are soooo out of your league. Best leave this to Tom and the other big kids. LOL

Your still here?
I thought you left.
Just can’t let it go, can ya.
Gotta drill your self righteous high horse “What Aaron did is worse then Ben” stuff into our heads, don’tchya.
Along with “Packers fans suck for attacking Ben but any other football fans aren’t for attacking Aaron.”
Hypocrite.

I believe Goodell had no right to suspend him based on league precedent and only did it to appease the public–which as you pointed out, was feeding off headlines and believed he’d gotten off unfairly. It infuriates me because Goodell didn’t care about the personal conduct policy when it came to Vince Young or Brandon Underwood. But for Ben’s sake, I supported it. He was careening out of control and that was the only hope of getting his attention. It may have saved a talented young QB from his own ego run amok.

Oops, guess my work isn’t done.

People remain frustrated that no justice has been sought? Perhaps if you’d watched Milledgeville prosecutor Fred Bright’s full 71-minute press conference explaining the details of why Roethlisberger wasn’t arrested instead of reading TMZ accounts you wouldn’t be. No one is asking you to take the word of an anonymous PFT poster. The case files have been public record for months. The Nevada case is a civil suit, still pending. But her texts about how she couldn’t wait to see Ben again are on file with the courts. That’s pretty straightforward for thinking people, Tom. So were the results of Georgia’s medical exam, which the prosecutor explained.

Roethlisberger was falsely accused of rape–not an uncommon occurrence. It’s happened to Mark Sanchez and Charlie Batch, too, a while back. That’s three QBs who’ll be playing in the AFC Championship. And it happened last year to 7 Packers, including Clay Matthews.

Call the Georgia Bureau of Investigation or Fred Bright’s office. You won’t find anyone who worked that investigation who believes a rape occurred in Georgia. You can make the same call to cops in Nevada. As I said, I’m a rape survivor and have spent time with dozens of other rape victims. I take this stuff seriously. Roethlisberger is no angel, and I supported his suspension because he needed a kick in the pants. But he didn’t rape anyone.

If you want to know the absolute truth, I think Rodgers was being a prima donna and should have smiled and waved at fans as he went through that area and maybe signed an autograph or two. But I don’t think he purposely disrespected that woman. Yeah, it probably gets old having to be “on” in public, but it’s the tradeoff for making millions to play football. The first comment I made way back at the top of this thread would have been all I said on the subject … if people hadn’t started slamming cancer patients, poor Jan, and posting “Duh, well, Roethlisberger rapes people.” I thought … “Are you kidding?” Rather than just admit their guy was being a jerk for five minutes, they’ll crucify cancer patients and start back in on us?

So … I’ve been on a mini-crusade. Like you keep saying about Rodgers … I’m human.

And BTW, Steelers fans were sticking up for Ben just like how we are sticking up for A-Rod.
It’s called “team loyalty.” Something you know nothing about since your leaving.

Good riddance.
Now we can get back to the topic at hand.
