In a shocking turn of events, Boston sports radio hosts have taken aim at Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers after he revealed that this upcoming NFL season could be his last.
The hosts wasted no time in unloading on Rodgers, questioning his commitment to the game and accusing him of being more concerned with his off-field endeavors than his performance on the field.
One particularly outspoken host, Bob “The Bomb” Johnson, had this to say about Rodgers: “I mean, come on, Aaron! You’re out here hosting Jeopardy and making appearances on The Conners like you’re some sort of Hollywood big shot. News flash, buddy – you’re a football player first and foremost!”
Another host, Mary “The Mauler” Thompson, chimed in with her own thoughts on the matter: “I don’t know about you guys, but I want my quarterback focused on winning games, not hobnobbing with celebrities. If Rodgers thinks he can just waltz in and out of the NFL whenever he pleases, he’s got another thing coming.”
The hosts also took issue with Rodgers’ recent comments about wanting to spend more time with his family, with one quipping, “Oh, boo-hoo, Aaron wants to spend time with his family. Well, guess what? Tom Brady manages to balance football and family just fine, and look where it’s gotten him.”
But perhaps the most scathing critique came from a caller who identified himself as “Tom from Southie,” who had this to say: “Aaron Rodgers is a joke. He’s more concerned with his hair and his Hollywood friends than winning football games. If he thinks he can just coast through this season and then ride off into the sunset, he’s sorely mistaken.”
Whether Rodgers will respond to these criticisms remains to be seen, but one thing is for sure – Boston sports radio hosts are not holding back when it comes to their feelings about the quarterback’s future in the NFL. Stay tuned for more hot takes and hot air from the sports radio airwaves.
