Aaron Rodgers: Enigma (14 Viewers)

[porculator]

Yes the life path of an elite QB is an interesting one. You don't make it that far without being insanely driven. When you're in HS/college you probably have zero free time to be a normal kid, but when you're in the NFL all of a sudden you have money and a long offseason to be as eccentric as you want. Rodgers is smack dab in that cluster of elite QBs of Brees, Manning, Brady, Rivers, Roethlisberger. Its interesting that all the others went with the traditional life path of getting married and having a bunch of kids and only Rodgers comes off as the "free spirit."

I don't think he comes across as a free spirit at all. Doing psychedelics and claiming spiritual enlightenment has become a very big rich people fad in the past few years. And then none of them ever exhibit a single sign of the "ego death" they claim to have achieved through it.

I mean compared to Brees/Brady/Manning who are just football robots he is a free spirit.
