While Braun and Lance both have shown to likely be sociopaths... Lance is by far the bigger of the two douchebags. He ruined the careers of many former teammates and bullied anyone that got in his way. His ending result on the planet is still a net positive for the work that he did for LiveSTRONG, but as a person, they just don't get much douchier.
Rodgers tweeted "ya I'd put my salary next year on it" The key phrase is "I'd". This is not the same as saying "I put my salary next year on it". He states that he would (most likely if someone was going to pony up with the matching millions on the other side. I don't believe the reporter in question "pony upped" with the matching funds. Rodgers owes nothing.
