Looks like Aaron Rodgers could be setting up another LeBron / Jim Gray "Decision" scenario this afternoon by appearing on brobud Pat McAfee's show.

McAfee has worn thin on my ears, and Rodgers...please. Why does a place like Green Bay end up with head case QB's like Rodgers and Favre while places like Miami and LA have QB's like Tua and Herbert? It should be the other way around.

If Rodgers goes to the Jets, at least he'll be bringing his complications where they belong.

Because if you tell a man that he is a god often enough, he'll begin to believe you.

I listen to a fantastic podcast called "Conspirituality" that digs into a lot of this "enlightened bro/red pill" culture. They dig pretty extensively into Aubrey Marcus, Rogers' spiritual guide, and his relationship with the bro science community touted to extensively by people like McAfee and Rogan. Its a fascinating listen if you have the inclination.
