Charles Rogers Off the Wagon… or is it On the Wagon?
Perhaps he partied with Tony LaRussa too. Rodgers was found unresponsive behind the wheel of his Mercedes and there is no way or reason for an NFL team to give him a tryout. The guy is a complete and total bust. No focus. No desire. No discipline. Also… still driving a Mercedes when he hasn’t [...]
