Your reckless words put my family in danger. Keep it up and we will debate the facts further in court.@AaronRodgers12,” Jimmy tweeted.
Rub McAfee also excused “being a part” of Aaron’s declaration versus Jimmy, keeping in mind that the previous professional athlete was “just trying to talk s**t.”

We obviously don’t like the fact that we’re associated with anything negative ever. We like our show to be an uplifting one, a happy one, a fun one. But it’s because we talk shit and try to make light of everything. Some things obviously people get very pissed off about, especially when they’re that serious allegations, so we apologize for being a part of it.”

In fact, we have a team of people who work very hard to sift through facts and reputable sources before I make a joke, and that’s an important distinction — a joke about someone. Which is what Aaron Rodgers should do. Which is what a decent person would do, but I bet he won’t. If he does, you know what I’ll do? I’ll accept his apology and move on, but he probably won’t do that. My guess is that he won’t apologize. I hope I’m wrong.”
