You're putting way too much analysis into something I didn't put that much thought into.

You're real quick to defend those with legitimate concerns about the vaccine, when in reality we both know he's referring to those who get their news from entertainment companies. The ones who lead every statement on tv with "I'm not a doctor and have no credentials, but the vaccine seems very suspect to me." The ones who trust their friends on social media, but not their personal doctors. Is that more concise?

That wasn't really analysis. I just wasn't sure what you meant by vaccine denier, and thought you might be pointing the finger at the wrong set of people. You're right though, I am willing to "defend" those with legitimate concerns about the vaccine; but I'm equally willing to defend those with legitimate concerns about others not getting the vaccine. I actually respect both decisions.

I respect you Chief, but I believe the real numbers - not those that come from unverified internet sources - back up that the vaccine is safe and legitimate. Is it safe for literally everyone? No. But that's the case with every vaccine. Is it safe for the overwhelming majority of people? I believe so. How long are you willing to wait before you clear it of long term side effects?

Really surprised nobody here is discussing Ron's latest response to the vaccine deniers on this squad.

It's from the latest MMQB, where you can read a big interview with coach here:

He's not holding anything back for sure. Sounds like he's taking the issue almost personally. Hope to see WFT and the league's vaccination rate continue to rise.

Falcons are 1st team to 100%. Impressive team effort.

I'm still for people making their own choices, but that being said, their season will be easier than every other team, unless other teams get there too.

Yes … they can , I am recovering from covid .. day 22 after symptoms ( got tested) anyway I did not take vaccine .. mistake , I’m 62 perfect health ( I race dirt bikes ... so my point is I go to my Dr regular and for my age Im good ..this virus kicked me hard .. my wife got the vaccine months ago came down with covid days after I got it … tested positive, her symptoms were way less than mine and her recovery seems like it will be much shorter .. what is confusing is depending on who you ask is now that I have had covid am I immune and for how long ?? For every expert that’s says I’m good there is another that says I need vaccine.. So UNTIL the experts can at least agree on this ( don’t get me started on the cheap mask / improperly wore thing) .. yea the n95 mask will work but the ultra cheap or cloth face pull up offers very little in protection) social distancing is far better ( I Caught mine at a bar/club with way more people inside that should have been .. 20 plus cases as result ! ( not agian .. I was foolish to attend ) I’m hoping that the vaccine will stop this ..this is so much misinformation out there on the internet .. social media maybe the cause of more pain and suffering than just about anything .. it certainly has divided us even on health issues … stay safe

I think this season will be an interesting experiment in regards to the vaccine and virus. I think I'm correct in saying that vaccinated players will not get tested regularly if at all, but just like us here in the real world, you can still contract the virus and/or variant. So we'll get to see if any vaccinated players still get the virus AND miss time for it if they become ill.

Right now vaccinated players are tested every 14 days vs every day for unvaccinated, but they may start testing more often

NFLPA proposing vaccinated players get tested more often than current protocols require

Haha! Nah, that's the thing..... I ain't gonna go tit for tat on the internet let alone in person. If someone wanna blatantly disrespect me for no apparent reason then dialogue is ceased, and I'd like to see that big mouth in person.

Most trash talkers on the internet are usually wussies. I also know what I'm capable of doing, and I'll leave it at that.

Be well!

Re: Coronavirus (sports edition) thread

Last night I had a dream me and my lady were touring this beautiful home we just bought on a cliff overlooking the ocean. Somehow I end up in the neighbors lawn and she comes out looking evil and she siks her dog on me and this huge dog comes charging from the house and is running down this long yard at me. I just stand there all cool like and just as it jumps at me, I duck and it goes flying over this rail and down this huge cliff to its death.

In my dream I was like "holy shit brah, you just beasted in a dream brah, lets not wake up and kick some more shit". Then in my dream I had sex with my cousin, she came and sat on my lap and was all flirty and aggressive. Only I knew it was wrong in my dream and it felt weird.

I feel weird now, thinking about it. I need a shrink to work through this.

Anyway ...
