I hope this takes Rodgers’ focus off the game at hand. Plus he lost the “Jungle Karma” yesterday on the Jim Rome show because his crappy cell phone (AT&T iPhone) kept dropping out…3 times! You could tell Rodgers was worried about the Jungle Karma because he kept calling back trying to keep with the interview, and then he texted Rome immediately afterwards asking him if he still gets the karma. Seriously, I think Rodgers might be worried!

Profootballtalk has retracted its story and apologized: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/01/18/an-apology-to-aaron-rodgers-packers-fans-and-jan-cavanaugh/. Since the bulk of my post was on Rodgers’ on-field actions, I stand by my changing opinion of him. Only one paragraph of this post was about the signing/non-signing.

Realist, this is a Chicago Bears Blog. This is not a Packer fan message board. You’re going to find opinions and comments from Bears fans here as most rational folks would expect from a Bears blog. We’re not Aaron Rodgers or Packer fans here. That being said, I have kept my posts positive and at every opportunity I have focused on what a great game this is going to be and what a great rivalry Bears-Packers is. If you want to contribute insight to the game, that’s fine. If you’re going to resort to insults, I’m going to start shutting the comments down. And a little pre-warning, should the Packers win, and because I’m a rational person I know there is a 50/50 shot of that happening, this is not going to turn into a Packer fan totem pole posting cheapshot comments, so if that’s your plan I wouldn’t waste your time.

Watch the video. Rodgers has earbuds and appears to be not focusing on anything but getting from A to B. He is probably used to people on his ass constantly in public and honestly she was there to get Clay Mathews autograph anyhow. It was not arranged for A-Rod to sign anything, he just wanted to get to where he was going. Nobody cares what these idiots are saying about him anyway. As a fan he has done enough for us by getting into the NFC Championship game. I could care less if he snubs me in public. That is not going to change how I enjoy watching him perform. In fact the vultures that bother him in public, just to benefit off from his signature, have ruined it for all of us (cancer patients included)So all you Packer haters trying to distract Aaron and the Packers better get more creative than that. This is nit picky BS and any moran that judges Rodgers on half truths is a waste of space. Kahrma’s a bitch Chicago! The real jackwagon is that mouth breather you call a Quarterback for CHI, but you knew that already.

I’ve noticed for a while that after TDs, Rodgers seems to enjoy a little too much pulling out all of his WWF gyrations and dancing moves that he and Jordy Nelson normally save for Green Bay’s boystown nightclub district. This is something that’s been happening for a while, and while it would be difficult to top Lord Favre’s decade long stretch of childish antics after TDs, Rodgers sure seems like he’s hell bent on trying to earn a reputation of his own for showing teams up by acting like a moron.

As you also pointed out, it’s possible Cutler is one of the most disliked QBs in the league, and that’s fine. I think most Bears fans could care less about that as long as he produces on the field. Go back to the McMahon days for validation on that point. And as you also mentioned, you rarely if ever see Cutler do much of anything after a TD that’s remotely close to Rodgers’ garbage. You can even go back to the origination of the whole Lambeau Leap crap from years ago, another example of amateur hour after scoring. As it’s been said, act like you’ve done it before. As Rodgers’ already ‘legendary’ status has been spoon fed to him from a baby food jar by the national media and idiots like Joe Buck and Trent Dilfer, his ego is growing exponentially.

Sounds simple, but a big key to the Bears winning this game is going to be the ability of Marinelli to turn it loose like never before on Rodgers and get to him hard early. I’m talking about McMichael/Hampton/Dent stuff. The Eagles and Falcons weren’t able to do it. We weren’t able to do it to Brady a month ago, but look at what the Jets did to him Sunday. The Pats didn’t think the Jets had it in them, but they came at Brady like maniacal crackheads. If we can do that consistently and with the same intensity to really get him uncomfortable, we’ll be in great shape.
