The raging dumpster flack that is the " brofest " between ESPN & WWE’sPat McAfeeand New York Jets’Aaron Rodgershas been burning brighter than usual lately , and it ’s dragging the athletics internet into it in ways that we ’re certain " The Mouse " would rather not have to potentially deal with . The 4 - and-10 field general function on McAfee ’s ESPN show – which he frequents regularly to reportedly offer his expert advice on the game – to call out television commentators and analyst for criticizing a biz he claims they bed nothing about .
A daytime later , Clark took to social mass medium and post a reply video ( with Brobdingnagian thanks toAwful Announcingfor assist as a second to our transcribing ):
I wo n’t rent Aaron Rodgers ' vax smoke screen disorder me from the stench of the tape . He ’s entitled to his opinion , but to say you are n’t touch on with what we say is a lie … I mean it ’s the reason we are here .
It ’s a lengthiness of his lip service that started with criticizing…pic.twitter.com/Ko0ogDFHnQ

" Here is why I called Aaron Rodgers – or why I called you – a hypocrite . You ’re actually on ESPN talking about my fellow colleagues and the people I work with saying that now because they are former players and were n’t as great of players as you were … they feel like they ’re the stars . And that ’s not it . goggle box has changed . It ’s more about view and the informed opinion of mass that have played the game . What ’s hypocritical about what you said is you said it while on idiot box with Pat McAfee , who has done an awful job with his platform . And even though he was an All - Pro punter , he is now extremely famous and more well - known for what he does in his post - life history , " Clark said at one breaker point , reveal down why Rodgers was in no position to attempt to take some medium moral high primer coat .
Clark continued , " Even more hypocritical of you that you ’re sit across from three people who have never played the game . And they are also entitle to talk about football in a very informed elbow room because — if we ’ve find out anything from Mina Kimes — you do n’t actually have to step on the plain to be excellent at the job of analyzing football . And I mouth to that lip service because you were getting compensate to do that , which Pat said you deserved to . And that is why you received money that you did , at least initially , because of what you brought to his platform . "
From there , Clark list his skill on and off the bailiwick before sharing that he is vaccinated and explain that his health history is the cause why . In term of the quarterback ’s persuasion on inoculation , Clark points out that Rodgers is the one who continues to bring it up and make it a topic of discussion – and that the chief cause why it was ever an upshot was due to the refutable mode in which Rodgers addressed it with sports fan and the medium .
" But let me be very , very clean-cut . My job is to study you [ Aaron Rodgers ] . You ’ve decided to analyze me . And in analyzing you , what I know is your QBR is 21st . I also know that you ’re the signal caller of a 4 - 10 squad that has to win the last three games of the season to even be equal to what last twelvemonth ’s team was without you , " Clark noted , shifting the focus back onto where Clark believe it should be – Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets – while make it clear that he ’s break to keep doing his job . " Now , I get it . You get on the show , and you talk about my broach , and you damn and all this tough talk . I just need you to know – none of that dash me . I ’m gon na do my job the way I ’m hypothesize to do it . I feel no way about being capable to talk about what the film says because of what my career was . And if you continue to be arrogant , or smug , or hypocritical , and it pertain to my problem , I ’m going to do it , " Clark said .
