I think Matt Ryan is a fraud. That's why ATL gets last.

So the NFL Players are on social media bitching about their employers' evident inability to provide safe work environments.  #wewanttoplay is their cute hashtag. 

My reply to Zach Ertz was something like, those of us who are "essential" have been dealing with this since March.  But welcome to feeling expendable!

The only bitching I can see is yours, jealously complaining that the players have the temerity (derived from leverage you lack) to (justifiably) complain about being asked to risk their health, and their family's health.

Because you have to work, they should have to as well?

Or do I misunderstand your post?

I was welcoming them as allies.  Finally.  It's like they looked up after four months in their comfy bubbles and said, hey, we might be risking our health and lives here.  Maybe we should express some concern.  You know, the same kind of concern those of us have been expressing all along?

Uh-huh. 

Lots of people call it "bitching" when someone they agree with voices a legitimate concern.

Welcoming..lol.  How magnanimous of you.

I got your back no matter what though:  I'll still give Kurt Warner's wife your contact info if I ever meet her.

For those of us who've been at work risking our health every day since this disaster started, I say welcome aboard NFL Players. 

Now you know what it feels like to be expendable.

That's the original reply.  Sure, there was some sarcasm there but my welcoming them to the reality that many of us have been facing since March was legitimate.

Their concern is legitimate.  I was simply wondering why it's taken them a third of a year to start expressing it in large coordinated numbers, that's all.    Because I don't really remember hearing a peep out of most of them until this started to potentially affect them.

Anyway, I could go on but I've already bored myself with it.  Back to watching soccer!

Edit - Go Liverpool on Wednesday!

Because like everyone else they assumed incorrectly that it would be under control by now.

Other than Trump cultists, I honestly don't know a single person who thought it would end well.  I'm pretty sure most of us forecasted doom, actually, and especially with a fascist regime of incompetent grifters in power.

Which political direction do you think a bunch of millionaires and billionaires lean?
