I would love to fire every icehole who refuses the vaccine. It's not plausible but man it would be sweet.

Stupid games, stupid prizes, etc.

Yeah let's enjoy and take the whole spectacle in....farg the dozens of women he terrorized

Eskin (I know) said there's a 90% chance he's an Eagle depending on what happens. Think next year is a wash for Watson but he's not getting a lifetime ban so if the birds could buy low on him I'd take the shot. So he's a horny dude with a massage fetish big deal

Honestly not sure about that. He's taken zero responsibility. This isn't like Michael Vick admitting his crimes, serving time, and taking a series of right steps afterward to clean up his name. And women aren't dogs. [I'll just leave that bait out for you.]

The NFL, Texans, and NFLPA are in this really weird spot where a young star is not criminally charged but is clearly guilty of sex crimes. They are sort of hemmed in by their own rules. But no one with a conscience wants to pay this guy, take the field with him, or cheer him on. That's why I'm breaking out the popcorn to see how these organizations handle this, not because I think "farg the dozens of women he terrorized".

Also find it weird that the NFL media thinks "his request to be traded" is even something worth mentioning anymore. Like that's the problem.

I'm surprised he's not on the commissioners exempt list.

But yeah the whole reporting on the trade request is not newsworthy. At least on the Sirius sports updates they're mentioning the allegations against him.

I understood that without the explanation. I'd hazard to guess that almost all of us--all five--did.

QuoteTAMPA, Fla. -- In a tweet that was put out Thursday and later deleted, Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette indicated he didn't want to get vaccinated for COVID-19. But on Sunday he said his decision wasn't set in stone and he is open to the idea.

"I just don't know too much about it," Fournette said after the team's first training camp practice.

Jesus Christ I just can't anymore with these idiots.

I know Arians said if an unvaccinated player is caught in an area where masks are supposed to be worn it's an automatic don't pass go $14,000 fine. And they'll be hit each time they're caught.

Good.

" The NFL tonight sent clubs updated training camp and preseason COVID protocols, including discipline for any player -- regardless of vaccination status -- who refuses to wear a tracking device ($14,650) or refuses to submit to required virus testing ($50,000), per source.

Tonight's memo also clarified restrictions for unvaccinated players outside the facility -- including bans on night clubs, bars, sporting events, concerts, etc.. All subject to a $14,650 fine for a first offense.

Protocols remain stiffest for unvaccinated players, who must wear masks at all times: 1) while lifting in the weight room; 2) at walkthroughs; and 3) at practice, including warmups/stretch, "except when doing so would interfere with their ability to engage in athletic activity".
