It is nice to see Florio own up but his last paragraph still annoyed me

"Hopefully, weve all learned something from this experience. I know I have. And rather than listing, as I ordinarily would, all the other lessons that I think everyone else involved in this situation should learn, Ill shut up and move on and let folks come to their own conclusions about what they may do differently when confronted with similar circumstances in the future."

What the hell is he talking about with "we've all learned something?" The only one that needed to pull his head out of his ass was Florio. The only thing that I learned is that I can't trust anything that Florio says.

He might have been referencing other bloggers who bashed Rodgers for this. Doyle (the article Florio suggested we read to hear about Rodgers' charity) admitted that he ripped Rodgers on Twitter before looking into his past a little more.

Once the guy knew what the lady in question said he still refused to apologize.

There was originally the maliciously slanderous statement.
There was an acknowledgement of the lady's statement and a flat out refusal to apologize.
Then "something" prompted NFBC's employee to apologize.

The last 2 statements were long winded with a lot of lawyerly fluff of ambiguous nonsense words that in the second one had venom and in the third came off as insincere.

Again I remind you the the guy suffers from that viking jealousy that which is a mental illness.

I put off posting in this/the other Florio thread, because I fully expected some sort of retraction to be made. I check PFT daily, and really there is no better source for rumors/news/insight on the whole of the NFL. Florio is an asshole, and is probably a little biased(who isnt?) but in general the guy is an equal opportunity asshole.

I was very surprised that his second response went how it did, but if you take a look at what lead to that response(An article on packerchaters I think it was), it wasn't exactly a professional rebuttal. I'm not going to defend his second post, but I can see that it was clearly more of an emotional response than a logical one.

Now onto his third response, I think you have to give the guy credit, Florio moreso than other annalists tends to actually admit when they've done wrong, and not simply ignore the story/delete the article like so many others *cough*ESPN*cough*. Weather or not it was entirely sincere, it still shows the guy is willing to publicly eat crow and man up about his poor decisions.
