Listen to Howard Stern Rip Aaron Rodgers a New One Over Covid Vaccine Controversy

Howard Stern is running his mouth off again – and the legendary radio host’s latest target is Aaron Rodgers, the Green Bay Packers star quarterback.

What set Stern off? Well, Rodgers previously said that he’s been “immunized,” only to get a positive Covid test that took him off the field on Sunday. It’s since come out that he never got a coronavirus vaccine as implied.

The footballer addressed the controversy thus: “First of all, I didn’t lie in the initial press conference. During that time, it was a witch hunt that was going on across the league, where everybody in the media was so concerned about who was vaccinated and who wasn’t and what that meant and who was being selfish and who would talk about it, what it meant if they said it’s a personal decision and they shouldn’t have to disclose their own medical information,” he said last week.

He continued: “And at the time, my plan was to say that I have been immunized. It wasn’t some sort of ruse or lie. It was the truth, and I’ll get into the whole immunization in a second. But had there been a follow-up to my statement that I’ve been immunized, I would have responded with this: I would have said, ‘Look, I’m not some sort of anti-vax, flat-Earther. I am somebody who’s a critical thinker.’”

Well, there’s another critical thinker in town and he loves to rake people over the coals – with plenty of F-bombs for color.

“If there was decency in this world, you know, I would throw this guy out of the football league so fast. What he did to his fellow teammates. This fucking guy, they should throw him out of the league so fast,” Stern ranted on his radio show.

Unfortunately, all the harsh words in the world won’t get Rodgers thrown off the team. At worst, the Packers player will pay a fine, but word on the street is he’ll be back in the game – against Seattle – this coming Sunday.
