Rodgers Wants Out

[Budman]

Sorry, Disney is. I know it’s convenient to blame the media. I’m done beating a dead horse

I'm not blaming the media. I'm pointing out some inconsistencies, in my mind, going back over all these "reports". Means nothing to me who is right or wrong but I do think reporting needs to be a little tighter. A lot of these reports send fans into a frenzy, including this board, with all kinds of conjecture and very little fact. We were told by Shefty that AR did not want to come back to GB. Has that been corroborated by more than hearsay? All I'm saying, is that this thing is growing out of control on conjecture.

AR and Gutey might be behind close doors hammering this out. When it's all said and done, they may come out and say that all that stuff being reported was not true. They may have not wanted to give any credence to any of the rumors out there.

My point is, we just don't know. It's fun to throw some thoughts out there and bust each others chops over it but the bottom line is that we just don't know. And that's because Stone Cold said so.

this organization is normally puckered up so tight, half the franchise value is from the diamonds that fall out of their behinds.

LMAO!!! BRAVO!!

Disney doesn't mind rolling out wheelbarrows full of cash for the right talent. I don't think they'd want to damage their capital on a story they thought was a lie.

It doesn't matter. The story has a life of it's own, and has burned turned over so many times it looks like a steak on the grill of a first time cook.

Sorry Bud the organization has confirmed their are issues, you don’t fly out ML, Gute and Murphy to have a friendly lunch at Dukes Malibu. That’s a fact. Rodgers told Tirico the same story. Dunn has confirmed the Kumerow issue as the “last straw”. That’s a fact Others have since written similar stories including Robinson with Yahoo Sports. It’s not like this has been under wraps. Rodgers unhappiness with GB FO is not breaking news. And here is the kicker. Not the Rodgers Camp or Team Murph has denied anything. That silence is deafening

Pack, I'm not saying there aren't issues. Never said that at all. Don't change the target. I just don't think any one of us knows for sure. You can tell me all you want, that the silence is deafening but it could go both ways. Maybe they don't want to give credence to any of these reports. Maybe they are taking the high ground. I'm not advocating for AR or the team. Just trying to sift through what is fact and what is conjecture.

“Aaron hasn't said anything like that to me and certainly hasn't said anything publicly,” Gutekunst said, via ESPN.com's Rob Demovsky. “I think that's a little unfair to put that on him. Certainly don't like to hear those things, but no, nothing's been communicated directly to me".

Maybe that's not the denial you wanted to hear. Maybe it's semantics, but Gutey has denied it. Again, I'm not clamoring for AR or the team. Just trying to sift through what is fact and what is conjecture.

Then don't watch TV, read social media, or log in here. The problem with a % of Packer fans is they want green and gold smoke blown up their backside while Lombardi speeches play in the background.

Believe the stories or not.... but we won't quit discussing it etc because a few of you demand clarification on "conjecture"

I'm not demanding anything. Just purely discussing the topic with fellow friends. I don't have a dog in the fight and whatever happens, happens. Makes for some interesting discussion. Green and Gold smoke blown up their backside while Lombardi speeches play in the background or not...

Then why the hell did they fly out the executive staff multiple times? I’m sure it was not frequent flyer miles. It’s not as simple as money.

Not disputing that there are issues. What those issues are, I have no idea. I'm in wait and see mode. Nothing will surprise me at this point.

just curious - how was the story first reported by schefter? i thought it was on twitter, but maybe that's incorrect.

if it was on twitter, is that still something that disney controls?
