He doesn\u2019t know me. I don\u2019t know who he is. No one knew who he was, probably, until yesterday\u2019s comments. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI listened to his comments, but to say he had his mind made up in the summertime, in the offseason, that I had zero chance of winning MVP, in my opinion should exclude future votes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rodgers went on to say that Arkush wants the MVP to add an extra letter to the acronym. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis problem isn\u2019t with me being a bad guy or the biggest jerk in the league \u2014 because he doesn\u2019t know me,\u201d Rodgers said. \u201cHe doesn\u2019t know anything about me. I\u2019ve never met him. I\u2019ve never had lunch with him. I\u2019ve never had an interview with him. His problem is I\u2019m not vaccinated. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"\/>\n<p>\u201cIf he wants to go on a crusade, and collude, and come up with an extra letter to put on the award just for the season and make it the Most Valuable Vaccinated Player, then he should do that. But, he\u2019s a bum and I\u2019m not gonna waste any time worrying about that stuff \u2026 It\u2019s surprising that he would say that. I knew this was possible. I talked about it on (The Pat McAfee Show) weeks ago. But, crazy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Arkush made the comments while <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>earing on \u201cThe Parkins &amp; Spiegel Show\u201d on 670 The Score in Chicago Tuesday, laying out his reasoning for why he wouldn\u2019t vote for Rodgers.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/GettyImages-1362925748.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024\" alt=\"Arthur Arkush explained why he made a &quot;big mistake&quot; in disclosing why he wouldn't vote Aaron Rodgers for MVP.\" class=\"wp-image-20723346\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/GettyImages-1362925748.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/GettyImages-1362925748.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/GettyImages-1362925748.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/GettyImages-1362925748.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Hub Arkush explained why he made a \u201cbig mistake\u201d in disclosing why he wouldn\u2019t vote Aaron Rodgers for MVP.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think you can be the biggest jerk in the league and punish your team, and your organization and your fan base the way he did and be the Most Valuable Player,\u201d he said. \u201cHas he been the most valuable on the field? Yeah, you could make that argument, but I don\u2019t think he is clearly that much more valuable than Jonathan Taylor or Cooper Kupp or maybe even Tom Brady.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Arkush, a longtime analyst for the Packers\u2019 rival Chicago Bears, appeared on The Score again on Wednesday, explaining that he made a \u201cbig mistake\u201d bringing up his aversion to voting for Rodgers.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"872\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/hub-arkush.jpeg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=872\" alt=\"Hub Arkush with Packers running back Aaron Jones\" class=\"wp-image-20725776\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/hub-arkush.jpeg?quality=90&amp;strip=all 872w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/01\/hub-arkush.jpeg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=436 436w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 872px) 100vw, 872px\"\/><figcaption>Hub Arkush with Packers running back Aaron Jones<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\"><a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>: @Hub_Arkush<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Arkush said his error, however, was not his underlying opinion of Rodgers, but the fact that he was not supposed to share specifics about his voting until after the award has been handed out. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI made a big mistake last night,\u201d he said. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t really have much to do with Aaron Rodgers. Being one of the 50 selectors in the AP poll is a real honor and privilege, and I was pleasantly surprised when they asked me to join. The only thing they really ask us is not to tell people who we voted for until the award is presented \u2014 and what they really mean is just don\u2019t talk about it.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>\u201cThe reason is exactly what happened here. The thing I feel really awful about is most of the other 49 presenters are acquaintances. A lot of them are friends. I\u2019ve now put them in an unfortunate position where they have to be asked about it. They may have to choose to talk about or defend it. That\u2019s just wrong and I feel awful about it. I really wish it hadn\u2019t happened.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Arkush was not going to re-address the substance of his comments about Rodgers, though he did say that he didn\u2019t communicate his opinion very well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeyond that the only thing I can do going forward is respect what I failed to respect last night and just not talk about it anymore until after the awards have been given,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t know if they make public who votes for who or not, but I\u2019ll be happy to talk about it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs far as what happened last night, it\u2019s on me. I screwed up. I haven\u2019t paid a lot of attention to [the backlash]. I don\u2019t spend much time on Twitter. A lot of it is being presented in ways that it wasn\u2019t said, but that\u2019s gonna happen. I do know that some of it sounds awful because I didn\u2019t say very well what I wanted to say.
