Big Props to Aaron Rodgers

We spend a lot of time talking about athletes who beat up their girlfriends, kill people, run drug rings, and steal. Let's talk for a second about Aaron Rodgers:
At Lambeau Field, before the Green Bay Packerslost to the Detroit Lions 18-16, a fan shouted out a slur against Muslims during the moment of silence.
That did not sit well with Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who called out the fan in his postgame comments.
“I must admit, I was very disappointed with whoever the fan was that made a comment that was very inappropriate during the moment of silence,” Rodgers said.
"It’s that kind of prejudicial ideology that puts us in the position we are today as a world.”
Rodgers would not elaborate on what he heard the fan say. He wore an expression of disgust as he chastised the unidentified fan.
I have nothing but respect for Rodgers on the field. I also have nothing but respect for him off the field too. The guy is simply a class act.
