“Say Hello to Participants”: Days After Legendary Ex-Teammate’s Support, Packers OT Lashes Out Against America’s Richest Politicians Over ‘Scripted’ Dramas

The NFL world has players who share their stances on certain political topics. Even New York Jets QB Aaron Rodgers is known for not being shy about voicing his opinions on debatable topics. Now, it seems like his good friend and Green Bay Packers OT David Bakhtiari is on a journey to find his own voice and opinions on matters of public interest. While he might still be sad about his good friend Rodgers and his other teammates leaving for New York, he is slowly becoming more vocal about topics of political interest on social media. 

The Packers OT had earlier voiced his opinion on a certain political topic related to Congress. And this led to Aaron Rodgers applauding his friend for finding his own voice of reason. Now, Bakhtiari has made his stance clear on another issue that carries a sense of public interest with it.

David Bakhtiari gets real on scripted interviews

The Packers OT is slowly coming out as a ‘woke’ American citizen after expressing his views on certain political aspects and topics. He recently shared another post on his Twitter, which shows a card that has a laid-out foundation of a Q&A session with reporters and also the questions that will be asked during the session with the politicians. Not only this, but it also highlights the sequence of how the event will officially take place. It showcases how the politician will enter the Roosevelt during this particular press meet and first say hello to participants. Then, the program will carry on as mentioned. 

Bakhtiari shared this tweet and wrote, “Can we have authentic and real non-scripted interviews?? I understand and agree with prepping someone(like studying for a test)but this is a bit too far. It’s just one big play..” The OT believes that while preparations for political interviews are important, having the whole foundation of the interview pre-planned is not the best practice.

 And this is not the first time Bakhtiari has come forward with his opinions. He was also vocal about Diane Feinstein returning to the Senate, earning praise from his ex-teammate and good friend Aaron Rodgers for having an opinion.

Rodgers applauds Bakhtiari for building confidence in having an opinion

A few days ago, 89-year-old Diane Feinstein returned to being a US Senator. During her 30-year career, she has had some of the most unusual trades, which led to her net worth skyrocketing to over $200 million. Bakhtiari expressed his views on the matter with a tweet, stating, “How are we as a nation just “cool” with actions like this? It’s cheating in broad daylight.” This earned praise from his good friend and ex-teammate Aaron Rodgers, who shared a gif saying, “Finally, Dave.” 

Bakhtiari replied to this praise, thanking Rodgers and using the hashtag ‘woke’. While they may not be playing on the field together anymore, it seems like their friendship will remain tight.
