Yes...there are a lot of people who got the vaccine who are acting shitty to people that havent. but if you think that the unvaccinated arent casting stones calling people like me sheep every day...then you just have your head in the fucking sand. and this isnt political in nature....im pretty middle of the road, and it seems to me both sides have been pretty shitty during this whole thing. a sad fact, though, is that the less people there are that are vaccinated, the longer this shit show continues. natural immunity or not. the masks and mandates will continue...im sure of it.

Re: Coronavirus (sports edition) thread
Enlighten you about what exactly?
SS called a large portion of the population a strange bunch, seemingly because he disagrees with their beliefs and/or decisions. I'm saying he has no fucking clue. I don't know if that is enlightening or not. Like I said, it's funny to see people like him talk shit behind their keyboards about those they disagree with, not knowing their particular rationale for making the decisions they do. It's all good. Putting large swaths of people into one bucket is the new thing to do I guess. Like those 60,000,000 + deplorables... Back to football. |

For me covid in relation to sports - guys will do anything to win - and I mean anything. They would kill people if it enhanced their ability to play football. They will take years off their life leading with their head on every other play. But they won't get a shot? Even when you know without a doubt (it doesn't matter if the vaccine is effective or not) that not getting a vaccine will actively hurt the team and make it tougher for the next season?

Re: Coronavirus (sports edition) thread
In a time where players are taking controversial "social justice" stands and driving fans away, here's a player worth supporting. He's standing up for younger players who can't speak up and keep a job.
The Bills' Cole Beasley is taking a stand on forced vaccinations. The League is threatening players if they don't get the injection and he's standing up to them. Several other high-profile players including DeAndre Hopkins and Leonard Fournette are also saying they'll retire over the protocols and the injection. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/nfl-bil...211223741.html http://sports.yahoo.com/buffalo-bill...193720432.html Quote:

But currently, I'm not sure you can find many politicians that aren't suggesting that you get the vaccine. And news - there is no news anymore. That shit went out the door years ago. It's all opinions anymore. Doesn't matter what channel you are watching. My take is - listen to your doctor, do your research, evaluate your own situation, and make a decision. Whatever that decision is, I respect that. |

Also “I’m gonna shutdown the virus”…that promise hasn’t happened either. Trying to blame Facebook ain’t gonna cut it.

Re: Coronavirus (sports edition) thread
I got tested positive for covid 2 days ago .. I was exposed on July 17 at a music event ( 20 plus people tested positive.. most of them were vaccinated) I did not get vaccine however my wife did ..problem is with this is I didn’t find out I was exposed until I had been around a lot of others .. I started feeling bad on the 9th day after exposure.. last night was rough ( horrible headache, super achy like flu.. however I have no fever , no loss of taste/smell, no breathing issues..)
my mom passed away in January of covid so I know the seriousness first hand .. this thing is far from over and if the country is to ever get back to normal the vax is probably the only way .. however what bothers me is the person I caught it from was vaccinated and had worse symptoms than me ( I’m not out of woods yet) but feeling better today .. I think we all can agree that politics have a huge impact on the whole Mask / vax deal .. so what happens when a team is 100 % vaccinated and they have a outbreak ? Vaccinated people can still get covid and spread it .. I know this first hand .. so I don’t know the answer . I just know I’m not gonna feel good about large crowds anymore .. |

Chief - It seems the tide is turning and even conservative politicians are mostly embracing the message now that hospitals are reporting 95-98% of their COVID patients are unvaccinated. Better late than never I suppose. As far as "news" go - well I can only speak for myself and some of my fellow millenials when I say my friends in the same generation don't put any stock into watching or reading opinions from people who get paid to say it on a platform. My trusted sources are the AP/Reuters, and everything else gets judged on a case-by-case basis. I'm not watching any news channels - if the tv's on it's Comedy Central or sports. And thanks for the respectful conversation - it's nice to be able to discuss these things without getting heated and I don't take it for granted.
