Like Pete Rose, Barry Bonds and Lance Armstrong, Aaron Rodgers trashes his legacy
Aaron Rodgers continues to cling to conspiracy theories and grudges, tainting the Iegacy of one of the NFL’s greatest quarterbacks ever.
As shocking as it is to see one of the greatest players of his generation, one of the greatest quarterbacks the game has ever seen, become the subject of late-night punchlines, it’s even more sad.
The epitaph of Aaron Rodgers’ career will no longer be limited to his one Super Bowl title, four NFL MVP awards and countless superlative stats. It will also have to include his descent into conspiracy theories and misinformation, and a baseIess attack on Jimmy Kimmel he tried — badly — to excuse as a misunderstanding.
It wasn’t the “woke establishment” that did this. “The mainstream media” isn’t to blame. This is all Rodgers’ own doing, with heIp from some of his “friends” on The Pat McAfee Show, and he won’t be able to outrun it no matter how many more seasons he plays.
This is the game plan of the media. This is what they do. They try and cancel — and it’s not just me. It’s nowhere near just me,” Rodgers said Tuesday as he tried, unsuccessfully, to extricate himself from the hole he dug by suggesting Kimmel was a pedophiIe who would be linked to Jeffrey Epstein.
This is their game plan, he continued. They use these words to cancel people and they went and ran with this because it’s the crazy, anti-vaxxer whacko again talking about, accusing somebody of being a pedophiIe? Of course. This is the game plan they use. Incorrect, but that’s the environment that we’re in.
The Lasting Impact of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans: A Look at the Cowboy Icon’s Nine Children
Roy Rogers, the “King of the Cowboys,” and his wife, Dale Evans, the “Queen of the West,” were Hollywood legends, starring in over 100 films and “The Roy Rogers Show.” They raised a family of nine children, blending joy with tragedy.
Their children’s stories reflect the couple’s resilience. Cheryl Rogers, adopted in 1941, appeared in some of Roy’s films. Linda Lou, Roy’s biological daughter, now lives in California, surrounded by family. Roy Rogers Jr., known as “Dusty,” became his father’s manager and a musician.
Dale Evans and Roy had a daughter, Robin, who was born with Down syndrome and passed away before age two. Dale honored her in the book *Angel Unaware*. Dodie, adopted at seven months, married and became a grandmother. Sadly, Deborah, adopted during the Korean War, died in a bus accident at age 12, and Sandy Rogers, adopted after Robin’s death, choked to death at 18 in a military hospital.
Tom Fox, Dale’s son from her first marriage, became a school teacher and passed away in 2012.
Their story is one of “joy, tragedy, and enduring love,” a legacy that continues to inspire.
