I'm not even going to touch the "not scientific" bit whenever you get to it, but I'm flummoxed by two other items in your response:
[list=1]

  • What exactly does the "NFL is going to be sued" have anything to do with the immediately pressing matter that Aaron Rodgers is prevented from playing this Sunday against the Chiefs, and possibly also next week against the Seahawks, due to NFL protocol? The NFL, as a private company, is well within its rights to establish protocols that its personnel have to abide by -- irrespective of the scientific validity of such protocols - and impose measures on its personnel if such protocols are violated.
  • Pray tell who and on what basis is going to sue the NFL? Aaron Rodgers? Surely some other player who has been caught up in the COVID protocols would've already sued. Alternatively, if Aaron was going to sue, surely he isn't biding his time to sue (I believe unvaccinated players lose out on game checks, so Aaron is certainly financially incentivized to not delay filing suit). It's empowering to suggest/threaten lawsuits when you feel a grave injustice is being done -- but it is not so simple because there has to be an established reason to sue (in other words, you have to have a reason for suing someone that the law recognizes as valid). Simply suggesting a lawsuit is coming in connection with the NFL's COVID protocols ... isn't only wrong, it's entirely misleading in that it falsely suggests Aaron Rodgers has been aggrieved legally.

    Stating someone has a virus, or has "tested positive" for a virus is libelous, if you cannot demonstrate that scientificially.

    Once the unscientific nature of this test is explained to the NFL, it will become also known to the greater public. Whether or not the "government" wants it to be widely known, I will leave to each reader to decide for his or her self.

    There's a LOT that is unscientific and logically contradictory about this "test." If I was in Aaron's position, I would be confrontational. "What evidence is there?"

    Let's bring it out.

    NOTE: I will focus on ONE primary area, you can all tell me how I'm wrong, if you believe me to be in error. I bet even Beast will agree with me.

    Right now I gotta crash, so I can get up for work early.

    Since the terms of this bet are favorable to me (that I will agree with your theory, not that I have to convince you that you're wrong), I'll make it easy on you. If you lose, all you have to do is send me a snickers bar.

    Deal?

    PS: Aaron Rodgers would take this bet for sure. *topic back on track*

    Are they really bringing in Bortles again!?

    Don't we have that skater kid grom the preseason? Maybe Bortles knows the playbook. He was here for a couple months. Weird.

    Yeah, Jordan Love is the only Packers QB that is not currently in the COVID protocol. Though it's possible he'll end up there due to being a close contact to either Rodgers or Benkert, similar to what happened with Lazard. In which case it's Bortles starting with Cobb or another street FA as the backup.

    Aaron Rodgers, COVID and the Big Picture 

    It’s up to the team to police its players. As the league noted in a statement to SI.com’s Albert Breer, “The primary responsibility for enforcement of the COVID protocols within club facilities rests with each club.” Failure to enforce those protocols comes at a cost. Last season, for instance, the New Orleans Saints were fined $500,000 and forfeited a seventh-round draft pick for COVID violations. The Saints and Las Vegas Raiders were fined $250,000, and coaches Sean Payton and Jon Gruden were fined $100,000 apiece, for not properly wearing face coverings on the sideline during their Week 2 game.

    Are the Packers guilty of having turned a blind eye toward enforcement of COVID policies? Or did the team try but Rodgers simply ignored them?



    Did the league know Rodgers wasn't vaccinated and try to look the other way because it didn't want a confrontation with one it's biggest stars?
