Well here we are day three of free agency we got Jay Glazer coming up tell us all the big comings and goings where some big names could end up what he thinks of what’s happened so far but I I would say a bizarre turn in the Aaron
Rogers story today but that’s kind of part for the course for Aaron Rogers but this this is bizarre even for him now a day after we find out that potentially he is on Robert F Kennedy Jr short list to be the vice presidential candidate on the independ ticket CNN has a story that
They put out today that is spreading uh all over uh and it is really something uh CNN puts out a story that is about a decade old but it says that the person pamila Brown who was one of the journalists writing who who write wrote this story said that she was covering
The Kentucky Derby for CNN in 2013 when she was introduced to Aaron Rogers hearing that she was a journalist with CNN Rogers immediately began attacking the news media for covering up important stories Rogers brought up the tragic killing of 20 children and six adults by a gunman at Sandy Hook Elementary School
Claiming it was actually a government inside job and the media was intentionally ignoring it according to the story when Brown questioned him on the evidence to show this real shooting was staged Rogers shared a lot of various theories that have been disproven numerous times uh these are some of the conspiracy theories that
Were at the center of lawsuits that were brought by victim’s families against conspiracy theorist Alex Jones who was sued and had to pay out and will have to pay out uh in the hundreds of millions of dollars um this story look I don’t think people understand quite how big a
Deal this story is when it compares to Aaron roders because there’s there’s conspiracy theories and there’s talking about a flat Earth there’s even talking about hey what I think of the vaccine there’s that kind of stuff that’s out there and then there’s I’m GNA go and and talk about something baseless that
The Sandy Hook conspiracy was staged now this wasn’t something he said public he said this very privately but again much like Donald Sterling with the Clippers when you say something very racial in in in private but it gets out I’m sorry but it got out it’s it’s the old adage that
If you have a dog that he’s behind a a a a fence everything says beware of dog and there’s all kinds of things up there but the dog gets out and bit somebody the dog still gets out and bit somebody you got to deal with that I I had the
Signs up yeah the dog still wind up biting somebody so this wasn’t something that Rogers talked about publicly this was a private conversation but now it is public and now this is out there and now this is something that Rogers has to deal with this is not hey he did a podcast he
Talked about vaccines he talked about this this is this is the killing of of of 26 people and 20 of them that were kids that he is sharing theories whether it’s behind the scenes or in public that hey I think the government covered this up and they were all actors because that
Was Alex Jones’s big thing was that hey the the the people were all actors and that’s what Rogers according to this piece allegedly repeated hey the that these are all actors there’s again there’s some kind of there’s some kind of okay what we’ll be okay with you what
You want to talk about conspiracy theory wise and then there’s this this is going to have huge ramifications like for for the first time I can see the end of his career because of this I can see the Jets meeting with him saying hey if this
Isn’t taken care of and Rogers has to come out and do something and address this right away this is not something you can just let Fester this is out there like I can see there being a hey maybe we have to figure something else out maybe you go try to run for vice
President maybe something I can see the end of his career because of this because this is different I don’t know how this is going to play in the locker room with his teammates in public that now it got out this is much more dangerous and more and and and more
Serious than people want to realize it is because you can say oh but this is Rogers who you know I get it I get Rogers has been off thewall for his whole I understand this not everybody’s day they know this about Aaron Rogers this part of it this is extremely
Serious and I can see big time things happening because of this because this is different than anything else that he’s been connected with in the past well we go back into all of the vaccine discussions and look hindsight being what it is there’s a there’s a lot that
Was suspect in terms of how how stuff was handled reported communicated Etc I mean still plenty of Investigations discussions going on doesn’t take away the fact that a lot of people got sick and died now in this particular case it’s always a reminder when we’re on air
Right when we’re in these Studios you always have to my dad taught me this a long long ago the walls have ears and in our business you always assume the mic is on right that it’s being heard in this case it’s one thing to have your thoughts and to have those
Conversations in the background but as soon as it becomes a viable point to to this right this has been there for a decade yeah even during all the vaccine stuff all the hot debate because Aaron Rogers was for many Public Enemy Number One for other peoples he he was he was a hero
Depending on where you were in that continue but everybody was talking about him CNN Fox News you name it he was on everybody’s his name was on everybody’s lips this never came up start to potentially Venture into the world of politics Tada now you’re open
Game right this becomes a oh now now we go through everything that you did you’re on the short list okay this is what we’re going to look at right now this was probably written and sitting there it’s like the celebrity obituaries for people once they hit a certain level
Of celebrity or a certain age all right you got that on file just update date last credits how they died if we know and it’s out right and that becomes a statement likewise this soon as that that story yesterday that we had fun with and and mocked the Jets and talked
About how he’d still be the best option at quarterback that the Jets have had forever well it activated a whole other part of of the narrative and his history and so any of those stories now become part of the public discourse and so we’ll see where this flows to this point
I haven’t seen anything uh from him discussing it I know MCA was saying he was on an iasa Retreat or whatever in Costa Rica uh as this stuff broke but certainly it’s now a very serious matter that he’s got to come up a with a a statement it’s not going to satisfy many
If anybody again small Fringe the only the only thing he can say is that no I never said this CNN got it wrong I am I am that’s the only thing he can sayal the only thing he can say right now that that’s it that’s the only thing he’s got
And that’s then it becomes the how dogged uh an effort are they going to make from a journalistic standpoint to go through anybody that might have been within earshot at this Kentucky Derby event at any of these other events where he said this or similar things so yeah
This is uh act one of the the next part of the Aaron Rogers play he has hastened the end of his career CU I I can see after today with like I said this is different trust me this is different than anything else he has said uh up
Until this point and now it’s going to be a huge thing I look at it this way because you know me being a Jets fan and so I can give you this unique perspective on it he’s a hard guy to root for he makes it very difficult for
You to root for him really really hard and this story depending on how this goes makes it really hard to root for him how can how if if he doesn’t come out and say no they CN as no I’ve never said this this is not unless there’s
Something from him that is that that is good enough to Plate everybody okay this didn’t happen this is it CNN said I got my sort whatever it was how could you how can I root for him it’s really I mean this is stretching the The credibility of I just root for the name
On the front of the Jersey right because I had to do that when when the jet signed Michael Vick I’m like wow man really okay and I decided that I’m just going to root for the name on the front of the Jersey not going to talk about
Him a lot not going to talk about look same thing Ben rothberger did we talk about him after all his legal issues that were really bad no we we we you know matter of fact we talked about things same thing with DeShawn Watson this is different though this is as as a
Fan I go how can I root for this guy how can I how can I be excited about him coming back if I think if this is what he thinks about Sandy Hook like H how how can I do that it’s really again I want root for the name on the front of
The Jersey but but it’s re he makes it really really hard and and his we know that he’s a different dude this is not that’s new news we know Aaron Rogers is out there he loves conspiracy theories he went on a podcast a few days ago we
Talked about how he wanted to play former years in the NFL well an hour of that podcast was dedicated to all kinds of stuff outside the box of the NFL this is different this is this is different than hey this is what I think about vaccines this is what I think about the
Earth this is I I I’m going to go with a baseless conspiracy theory that saw kids get murdered and that’s a much different way to say oh this is something you believe so I I don’t know how I’m going to feel about this and and and and again
He’s a hard guy to root for anyway I don’t know how I can go forward rooting for him with this unless this

Is there video of rodgers saying these things? Audio?
nothing burger
I find these "New" accusations suspicious because of the current headlines focusing on RFK Jr wanting Aaron Rodgers as his VP.
Blowing it way out of proportion
Maybe if you ignore the fact there is no evidence. Or ignore that he was on the news talking about Sandy Hook and wore a sticker on his helmet for it. Trust the CNN reporter who said they heard it and for some reason only remembered after the VP info came out. (Didn't remember it through all the COVID stuff).
Alot of people (in this supposedly free country) think people’s lives should be ruined for believing the wrong things lmao.
Completely hearsay, they don’t provide any documentation for their claim..what’s wrong with American media…no standards at all.
money hunting
Boy, when they come for you, they come for you.
The way the media hates and lies about Rodgers is pathetic.
Why didn’t she mention this years ago? 🤔🤔
This is a case of hearsay/he say, she say…
Sooo what did rodgers actually say?
CNN is a joke. That network is so biased I can't believe anyone takes them seriously anymore.
Why is mainstream media so worried about an RFK & Rogers ticket when we repeatedly hear that they have no chance of winning? ( I agree that the odds are slim to none).
Is this just news for clicks and news sake?
Rodgers wears a foil hat. Total nut case.
Rogers is the typical maga idiot who knows just enough to think he’s right, but not enough to know he’s wrong. Sort of like Rogan and Musk lol
This whole country has gone Bat Sh@# KRAZY !!!! That Whacky juice that he's been drinking has clearly affected him in the Worst Way !!!
I use to love Aaron Roger's,, now just hearing his name makes me wanna vomit all over my self,,,,ENOUGH with this guy !!!
End of his career? He was not the only one who questioned the Sandy Hooks shooting back in 2013.
He's a drug addict! He needs help!
No freedom of speech but you are requested to do interviews literally a third of the year. 😕 They want his opinion but only what they want to hear.
Instead of striving to be like Tom Brady and Joe Montana, he wants to be like Alex Jones smh 🤦🏻♂️
The Jets won't want to take the financial hit. Football is about the $$$, always has been.
Let’s face it if there just wasn’t any internet for everyone to blab about all kinds of BS nobody would hear or spread these dumb ass conspiracy theories period. There’d be no outlet for it whether it be Rogers or anyone else. It’s like everyone has been National Enquirized. Certainly those kids were murdered and whatever your stand is on the availability of those firearms it’s a horrific tragedy either way and all sympathies tot hose poor families. At least that’s what America used to be.
This is the only conspiracy theory that really bothered me. He will get buried for this he will never survive it.
So suddenly the NFL has moral standards? When did that happen. Rogers is what happens when you don’t have standards!
Does Rodgers think it matters when he said it? He didn't deny it. I don't think he plans to play another down for anyone. Sorry Jet fans but he ain't winning you a super bowl. He'll be 41 in december. Maybe you get joe Montana to cone back. 😅.
Flat earth? Ask william shatner or book a space ride next time its offered so you can see for yourself. 😅
Aaron please sue this lying pos . Where. Is the actual evidence.
Oh my good he is a hard guy to root for. Where will we go and what will we make up so people will listen to our crappy show.
Karen brings it on to himself just shut the he'll up.
Rodgers getting the Trump treatment with fake news. If this is false, this better be the end of legacy media
So, this story is about what he said in private to a reporter? Total BS
Alot of people died for frredom of speech! Now it seems like they died for nothing!!!
Of course theres no evidence of any of this being said. Jason is a joke, get him off the show FSR.
Worst show on fsr
? Is saying sandy hook was staged the same as saying the government played a role in 911….cause they say that on the tv so I don’t see the difference
