It’s ok for fans to give their opinion just as it is for players to give theirs. I won’t say fuck Leonard, but I will say I find his opinion ignorant and selfish (from a societal prospective even more than a sports one). And it is unfortunate such an outspoken “team leader” holds such views IMO. I fully expect it to cost the team. Leonard is certainly free to his opinion and control of his body. And I’m free to think less of him because of it. I’m sure he’s not concerned.

That is one reason I will be interested in if there is any change in attitude once they all get together. I'm not ready to make any judgement just yet. Does anyone else think that this will be a test of this great locker room Ballard thinks he has built? If we remain the one of the lowest vaccinated teams that kind of says Ballard's idea of what a great locker room is isn't so great, at least in insuring you have the best chance at winning.

Or you know facts and science.

Posting this just for the hell of it. Dumb asses!

So are they still gonna get daily testing?

Under the current rules, if the player is not vaccinated, he will need to take daily COVID tests and wear masks 100% of the time during team activities.

If the player is fully vaccinated, he doesn't need to take daily COVID tests and is not required to wear masks.

The vaccine isnt perfect. You can still catch it. The chances of hospitalization and or death drops into single digits with the vaccine. They were right about getting. Vaccinated, should have been more careful about distancing.

Right now, all over the country, people are still dying of covid, and 99% of them are unvaccinated.

Cant fix stupid

All of us suffer from believing our thoughts. Can't fix being human.

We politicized a epidemic. It should be a medical argument only. The unvaccinated are at the highest risk, but this variant attacks children as well and we are about to start the new school season. Which means children of unvaccinated will be mixing with other children.

Also, the longer we drag this out, more chance a new mutation will pop up that the vaccine won’t cover. We are our own worst enemy.

The NFL is a collective of private businesses that can refuse service to any customer and release any employee, just like any other business. It's smart business for them to put a vaccine mandate in place, as it is going to protect their business interests the most. This falls under player conduct, and we all saw the enforcement muscle Goodell flexed when he first became commissioner in regards to player conduct. He should grow the balls to do it again (and ban Brady and Belicheat while he's at it), but he won't.
