The point with the National Anthem protests have been made and now it’s time for it to stop, but that doesn’t seem like it will happen anytime soon. The competition level within the sport has transferred from the actual game to who can make a bigger, more disgusting statement than the last athlete. It appears that Packers’ Aaron Rogers wants that title in a sudden surprising move.

Of all the teams in the NFL, the Packers was among those who have gone against the grain and not wasted airtime and energy protesting. This was in large part due to coach Mike McCarthy’s unique approach to combating this issue on his field.

From the start of the preseason when the protests began, McCarthy preempted the problem on his team by educating his players on why we stand for the anthem since ignorance is why most of the idiotic athletes are sitting or kneeling on the sidelines. He’s put the knowledge of the real history of this nation on the field to stop players from making fools of themselves with protests. However, his quarterback didn’t listen to this lesson, or one of the team owners’ shocking ultimatum yesterday.

Rogers just proved that players don’t care about anything other than the attention they get. Just hours after one of his team’s shareholders announced that he’s ready to call it quits if the protests across the NFL persist because he’s livid about what it’s done to the league. The quarterback must have taken that as a challenge, spitting on this man’s massive investment and followed up the announcement with one of his own.
