I have a professional athlete in my family and she isn’t nowhere near the level Rodgers is on and she has to work 12 hours a day just to stay there. On one hand I know what he's saying. It's the "they play a kid's game for a living" argument. But the NFL is an absolutely brutal sport and these guys are absolute beasts and work harder than we can imagine. Since Howard Stern was mentioned above, have you ever heard the one where IIRC Stuttering John thought he could make it to like a semi-pro league. He was so delusional that he thought he could actually compete against an NFL'er if they were "lesser players" (or maybe the last man on the bench, I forget the details). He challenged Marco Battaglia to a race. Some people truly don't understand how amazing you have to be in order to be a pro athlete (even the worst guy in the entire league. Not that Marco Battaglia was, btw). This is another good one along the same lines: https://www.basketballnetwork.net/old-school/when-brian-scalabrine-destroyed-amateurs-in-the-scallenge “I’m way closer to LeBron than you are to me” - when Brian Scalabrine destroyed amateurs in the Scallenge White Mamba may not have been a star in the NBA, but he's clearly better than most basketball players outside the Association. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non stop I grew up with letterman on nbc with the Grateful Dead jamming on his show and actual comedy that made me laugh. BTW I am astounded that our prestigious moderator team hasn’t locked this thread already. @Thor99 oh wait, he’s still low man on the totem poll after 16 years. Kimmel has been getting crushed in the ratings for years and yet not only doesn’t get cancelled he gets to host all these awards shows. When he hosts the Oscar’s the ratings are at an all time bottom. The next year literally anyone else hosts ratings are back up 15% If it wasn’t for Ben Stein in the late 90’s and Howard always having him on his show in the 2000’s Kimmel would be doing standup at Giggles in Poughkeepsie 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of the A-listers Howard is now buddy buddy with I’m actually glad. Chevy Chase is one example and that was a great interview. But Howard now acts like a 15 year old girl pretending whatever piece of crap Ashton Kutcher or Bradley Cooper shat out is the next Godfather 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Creepy Lurker Posted January 3 Popular Post Share Posted January 3 53 minutes ago, neckdemon said: current politics might be the most toxic, divisive thing i've ever witnessed......both sides mostly suck and have plenty of really sh*t people. anyway, who gives a sh*t about this. it's stupid i care about if the guy can come back next year and win football games. idgaf what his politics are, what drugs he takes, if he wants to jerk off in the dark for 2 weeks.....none of it matters. just win games next year!! People, and not just here, should really stop having the “fan” mindset when it comes to politics and just blindly root for their team like a bunch of idiots. It’s all extremely corrupt. Both sides are corrupt from top to bottom and just controlled opposition to one another that ultimately furthers an agenda of complete censorship and control. Wake the **** up and stop being blind loyal sheep entertained by your sports ball while the country goes to hell. That Epstein list will be LOADED with R and D scumbags. It will also include many stars that the lemming idiots worship who are complicit to all of this. They should all be slaughtered. 6 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post usanyj Posted January 3 Popular Post Share Posted January 3 There is deniability here if Rodgers needed to take it...the headline does not match the quote (SURPRISE SURPRISE!), He said "There's a lot of people, including Jimmy Kimmel who hopes that list doesn't come out." All that could mean is the people on the list will make Kimmel look dumb because he has backed them through the years. By no means does that quote mean that he himself is on the list... I don't believe in all this cancel culture stuff, but Kimmel does nothing funny, mocks one side of the political aisle, and has performed in black face over the years...by today's standard, he should be a distant memory, instead, I see his dumb face on my tv daily. Wonder why? 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TuscanyTile2 Posted January 3 Popular Post Share Posted January 3 I think Aaron Rodgers will end up being on the right side of history when we look back at his "controversial statements" regarding recent events (referring to the ones starting in 2020). He also seems to be well aware of of other forms of corruption that go on and, to his credit, speaks out about it! 8 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kleckineau Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Kimmel stinks. His "humor" is tired garbage. He exists because he follows the orders of the corporation as to what his content will portray. Oh and yes Aaron is wrong here if he did indeed make that accusation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard I think Tim Leglar told a story like this once , the same hotel employee kept challenging him to a one on one and calling him out and Leglar ignored him for a while before finally saying something like “ kid if we played one on one I would get to 1,000 before you got to 10 “ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So well done - however I must take exception when lumping all the R&D's together when the honorable Robert Menedez, a man of integrity and honesty should be excluded. Sure he had a few Gold bars but this is a great man and I will not allow his reputation to be besmerched😀 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Warfish Posted January 3 Popular Post Share Posted January 3 This thread. SMH. Id say Max should ban you, but at this point he’d just be doing you a favor sparing you from the final game talk here.

Popular Post The Crusher Posted January 3 Popular Post Share Posted January 3 I’ll never understand the constant need for people to talk politics here. We’ve asked over and over to simply not bring that here. Yet, some of you think it’s so important we know your stance that you ignore that simple rule. Newsflash, nobody cares what you think about politics because everyone else has their own opinion but some of us are in touch enough to realize nobody else care what we think either. So everyone just blurts out crap here and then gets their little feelings hurt when someone disagrees. This is s NYJ Fan site that doesn’t want politics Each of you should be banned for life but Max is sincerely one of the nicest dudes I’ve met. So instead I’ll ban myself because all of you who can’t avoid that subject suck. So GFY’s. 11 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
