In this day and age we expect information to be at our fingertips instantaneously. One of my professors liked to say, “we like things hot, fast, now and my way.”
That is the biggest frustration with Aaron Rodgers’ story. When you boil it down, we hardly know anything.
First of all, we don’t know why this story broke the day of the NFL Draft. ESPN’s Adam Schefter has justified breaking the story then by saying it was an “accumulation of information.” So basically, nothing really was broken wide open, Schefter just desperately wanted to be first. And it was a mere coincidence that it “broke” on one of the biggest days of the NFL calendar.
