Good morning, Sports fans! Davey Mac here with another Sports Report for ya! We've got baseball scores and a legendary manager passing away, the NBA Postseason begins with LeBron and Steph, Flyers in action, the Giants may trade up in the NFL Draft, and more...but first...we gotta talk about New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers for a minute.

In a recent interview, Rodgers had some interesting things to say about the United States government and HIV. Take a look at the clip below.
Now, I'm not interested in talking politics or conspiracy theories...this is the Sports Report...just the Sports here. But that brings me to my point: Aaron Rodgers stated a few months ago that the Jets need to "Flush the bull sh--" and solely focus on football. And then he veers into this controversial topic?

I don't get it. Rodgers only played four snaps last season for the Jets before completely tearing his Achilles. Shouldn't he be only talking about football and how the Jets are going to play this season?

It'll be interesting to see how Rodgers and Gang Green do this year...the pressure is on. You can't give Rodgers all that cash for no football and lots of politics talk. But if Aaron leads the Jets to the Super Bowl, I'm sure fans of Gang Green won't mind what he says! I'm Davey Mac...now on to the rest of the Sports Report!
