Aaron Rodgers tests positive for COVID-19, and the internet yells about lies and double standards

TAYLOR KNIGHT:

AARON RODGERS IS UNHAPPY AND UPSET.

THIS AFTER THE GREEN BAY PACKERS QUARTERBACK SPENT FORTY FIVE MINUTES TALKING ABOUT WHY HE DID NOT GET THE COVID-19 VACCINE. 

ACCORDING TO PEOPLE MAGAZINE – HE KNEW SOME PEOPLE WOULD DISAGREE WITH HIM, BUT HE DIDN’T KNOW IT WOULD TRIGGER SUCH A BACKLASH.

RODGERS IS FAR FROM THE FIRST ATHLETE TO CATCH COVID CONTROVERSY.

TWITTER USER STEPHANIE – BELIEVES RODG ERS SHOULD OWN UP TO THE ISSUE AS KYRIE IRVING DID. 

SHE LIKE MANY, THINKS THE QUARTERBACK IS GETTING A PASS WHILE IRVING FACED MUCH HARSHER RIDICULE. 

FAMED FICTION WRITER STEPHEN KING ALSO CHIMING IN- CALLING OUT THE DOUBLE STANDARD WHEN COMPARED TO FORMER 49ERS QUARTERBACK COLIN KAPERNICK. 

RODGERS ADMITTED ON FRIDAY HE WAS USING THE ANTI-PARASITE DRUG IVERMECTIN TO TREAT HIS COVID INFECTION ON THE ADVICE OF PODCASTER JOE ROGAN. 

RODGERS IS LIKELY TO FACE FINES BUT NOT SUSPENSION AS THE NFL CONTINUES ITS INVESTIGATION ALTHOUGH RIGHT NOW ITS UNCLEAR WHEN HE’LL RETURN TO THE FIELD. 

AS FOR HIS ENDORSEMENT DEALS…

STATE FARM IS STICKING WITH THE LONGTIME SPOKESMAN. 

THEY RELEASED A STATEMENT SAYING THEY DON’T SUPPORT SOME OF HIS COMMENTS BUT RESPECT HIS RIGHT TO MAKE HIS OWN VACCINE CHOICE.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT RODGER’S DECISION?

LET US KNOW IN THE COMMENTS BELOW.
