Question: What would the media's reaction be if Russell Wilson were a Muslim who always praised Allah, and Rodgers mocked Allah, instead of God? Think all hell would break loose?
I know dumb question.
How classy of Rodgers. :(
I personally don’t think God gets involved in football games ... and I’m really sure it’s never a good idea to mock God.
Karma.
I don’t see that as mocking God at all. We joke, tongue-in-cheek, all the time that God likes our team. This is nothing new.
Um...this is from The Sore Loser Seattle TIMES!
Aaron wasn’t mocking God. He was talking about Top Down Leadership. WHO is at the top of EVERYTHING?
Yeesh. ‘The Sore Loser Seattle Times.’ (I’m Trademarking that, LOL!)
God doesn’t care about football games. He cares about our souls. I appreciate Russell Wilson’s dedication to the Lord, but I believe Rodgers was just making light of something Wilson said, not mocking God. I don’t believe it was mean-spirited in any way. At the end of the day, it’s just a game.
I never did like the dousche.
Only a Seahawks fan, that remembers intimate nuances from last year, would make this connection. I like Rogers but don’t think he is quite that clever. I will give the BoD to Rogers and assume he is speaking as a man who also has faith in God.
It is the Seattle Times. I expect they have some antimosity hangover this morning.
It’s my opinion.
bttt
“I don’t think God cares a whole lot about the outcome. He cares about the people involved, but I don’t think he’s a big football fan.”
How does that mock Him? He is right. God doesn't care about the point spread.
How does Rogers boyfriend feel,excuse me, girlfriend?
It is just a bad joke - get over it people.
That's it?
It's a very mild joke... I'm sure God is big enough to take it.
Rodgers' comment that God doesn't much care about the outcome of a football game is (probably) correct. It's a game, for goodness sake.
Members of the Alliance of the Perpetually Offended need to stand down.
The Seattle defense stank up Lambeau Field, and the Packers schooled them pure and simple. Good for Green Bay.
The officiating, on the other hand, was questionable at time. Missed intentional helmet to helmet contact, for one.
But Green Bay made Seattle's D look like a bunch of morons. It was embarrassing.
Very disappointing. I always thought more highly of Aaron Rodgers than that.
So you’re a Seattle Times adherent?
That’s not mocking. There’s a long history of declaring God to be a fan of your team going back much further than the hole in Dallas’ roof (so God could watch). It’s just how sports works. Also dog shows as almost everybody at those is quite convinced God loves their breed best.
And what team had a player ejected from the game last night?
That team has the dirtiest players in the NFL.
