Uh no, Aaron, Cal is not your alma mater ... you quit before graduating.
And you're the guy who announces your junior college when introduced.
What have YOU done, Aaron, to help Tedford and Cal?

Obviously, Aaron, you haven't kept up if this quote is accurate.
"<Tedford> fulfills everything you ask him to do on the field, regardless of the injuries they had this year, to always continue to prepare those guys like I know he did"

I'm a big Aaron Rodgers fan, but it seems his knowledge in football stops at reading the opposing defense.

This must end!

"There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part! You can't even passively take part! And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheelsupon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop! And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!"

What is wrong with Aaron disagreeing with Sandy's decision? She said it was a very tough decision. Why do you expect everyone will happy with the decision? I am in agreement with Aaron 100%. But I also agree with Sandy that we had to do it.

BTW you are both a troll and an idiot.

I would've expected Rogers to be supportive of Tedford.

What else is he going to say, "His time had come?".

Tune into Sunday Night Football in 72 hours.

Green Bay Packers vs. New York Giants.

Aaron Rodgers will say "California." Guarantee it.

Goddamnit! I hate it when facts get in the way of an otherwise perfectly good argument.

It. Doesn't. Matter.

He loves Jeff Tedford, great. He isn't the only one who played for him that does. We wish it was all like the "Aaron Rodgers" days at Cal..they were not. They will be again. Rodgers will be on the sidelines if possible when Cal is at the Rose Bowl.

Rodgers and Tedford vacation together on occasion iirc.

Regardless of facts, anyone who fired someone in my family or one of my friends would be wrong.

OK, what does a Mario Savio quote have to do with Aaron Rodgers? I knew Mario Savio, by the way, and he was no football fan. Though I think he secretly rooted for the Bears when the team made the top 10 in 68.

Unfortunately, Rodgers didn't win the game against SC in 2004. He's good, very good, in fact, among the best that ever played in professional football. But his time at Cal was not flawless, so let's keep it in perspective.

Like I said, reading the opposing defense.
Yes yes, he's a great QB and my favorite football player of all time.
But he hasn't shown he can evaluate coaching talent.

Definitely.

But he rose the bar and expectations for the next qb, and the next....next and so on.

Also....sure wish he stayed his last year instead of being sidekick fodder for Farve.

uh yes I watched that game so I know he didn't win. he was near flawless no other team till Texas was able to do what Arod did against $c. how many bad games did Arod have? and I'm taken out Texas tech cause our wr corps was depleted so that wasn't on Arod.

Not sure how you can be in agreement with both of them......Aaron said it was a "terrible decision." Yet you agree with Sandy that "we had to do it"???????

I was mad at myself for reading this terrible thread into the second page until I saw this -- that is awesome.
