I agree with you that this is an image thing for the nfl. Goddamn do i agree with that. So much so that if the tests are not reflecting what we're selling, we'll just stop testing. It's like saying we'll decriminalize these crimes so that our city will have less crime. It's asinine.

Almost nobody complaining about players on covid lists gives a single fuck about that player's well-being or spreading the virus. They just want darius leonard making plays for the colts. That's where the "selfish" pejorative comes from. It's not because he's spreading a virus. Nobody cares. It's because the only thing that matters is we don't want our team playing with a backup linebacker.

You implied as much saying it's a win-win coercing players into taking the vaccine because they won't be tested as much. That doesn't scream to me that your main interest is to keep covid out of the building.

bingo!!
