SPORTS MEDIA STILL GOES AFTER AARON RODGERS FOR VACCINE STANCE...

Sports media personalities have a really hard time making their minds up about COVID.

Aaron Rodgers recently came up for criticism from one of the top sports media commentators after it was officially announced that he wouldn't play in 2023. The argument, essentially, is that Rodgers' claims that he would make it back this season, thanks to a new procedure on his Achilles, were off because he's not a doctor or a medical expert. And as we all know, the doctors and experts are always right.

There was more criticism afterwards for Rodgers due to his statements on "politics and the vaccine."

"Science works, a lot," Colin Cowherd said. "Most of the time. You don't know as much as an epidemiologist, you don't know as much as team doctors, you don't have any revolutionary medical breakthroughs or access, it's called a Reddit board."

"And also, by the way, the vaccine did save lives," Cowherd claimed. "I'm sorry it did. I'm not a doctor, but it did. Millions and millions of lives."

There was no acknowledgement of the inherent contradiction; making a conclusive statement that the vaccine saved "millions and millions of lives" without the benefit of the same qualifications that were apparently necessary in Rodgers' case.

Soon after, Cowherd rightfully defended Jim Harbaugh against allegations of providing misleading information during COVID. But in doing so, admitted that the same doctors and experts he said Rodgers should listen to provided "misleading information" and were "making stuff up."
