  2. Much faster. They have to get 9 rounds in today. I think its 1 minute between picks.
  3. There are a lot of people that are duped or stupid, but I disagree that "an entire party is cheering them on." You can find quote after quote from Republican governors in the south encouraging their citizens to get the vaccine. They may not be requiring it to the degree that some want, but they are not encouraging or cheering anyone to not get it.
  4. I feel for these people. I want to limit their deaths. I think we need to continue to try and convince them to get the vaccine. But beyond that, what's the problem? You get it, you aren't going to die. You don't get it, you made that decision. Stop protecting those who have made that decision. And stop worrying about them affecting you. They are killing themselves.
  5. Doing that with The League. 20 minutes here, 20 minutes there. Easy and funny.
  6. It’s complicated… But to be clear, the oldest of the kids in the family are my 12 year old son, and my brother’s 12 year old son. Two different children.
  7. Right leaning. Vaxxed. Parents both vaxxed. In laws all vaxxed (minus 1 of 9). Brothers and spouses vaxxed. Everyone did it the very first day they could. No real interest in getting kids vaxxed. Oldest being my son and nephew at 12. My kids were all in school all year. Played football, soccer, basketball and baseball. Been to multiple camps, spent nights out, etc. Of the 200+ kids we interact with, I think I’ve known of 4 that had covid, and they only know because their teacher had it and had to get tested. None of the kids in their classrooms ever knowingly had it. If other kids had it, it was asymptotic and never lead to outbreaks. I’m not 100% against it by any means. Just see no reason to rush and get it.
  8. I would agree with the weaponizing, the distaste of it, and your ratio. As for refusing to get the vaccine, I'd say the ratio is closer to 3:2.
  9. "Uncomfortable facts." I imagine when posters say the unvaccinated should be "shamed, ridiculed and outcast from society", they only mean one side of the aisle.
  10. No. I'm talking about most of the league's stars. Guys who have a lot of influence. Good for Steph. I don't get why anyone would get vaccinated and be secretive about it when they have the ability to save lives.
  11. You’re gonna say goddammit again. 17 years ago. 2006.
  12. Is the fact that the two time defending MVP can’t bring in ratings a problem for a “star driven league?” Is Giannis not a star? To answer your question, you’d have to go back 17 years to Mavs-Heat #1. Game 1 was 13 million viewers.
  13. Lol. What a ridiculous projecting response. I’ve done nothing but post factual ratings with no opinion and link an article that actually dismissed the political angle. The ratings are less than half what they were four years ago. Im sorry my link squashed the theory that ratings were great just because they beat last year. But hey, you don’t like what I linked from noted conservatives like the Athletic and Stewart Mandel, so let’s make it political.
  14. “No one” is a stretch but it’s not good at all. 2021 8.56 million ABC Suns 118, Bucks 105 2020 7.41 million ABC Lakers 116, Heat 98 2019 12.31 million ABC Raptors 118, Warriors 109 2018 17.67 million ABC Warriors 124, Cavs 114 (OT) 2017 18.74 million ABC Warriors 113, Cavs 91
  15. I wonder what price increase the actual math would justify. Especially when compared to other voluntary health decisions. There would probably be an age/BMI component.
  16. I’m fine with that. Of course that can open Pandora’s box as to not covering avoidable illnesses. Probably more likely non vaccinated see an increase in rates.
  17. Variants are going to happen elsewhere, no matter if we reach 100% here. We aren't isolated. Doesn't mean we shouldn't try. Its just naive to think the variants are going to be caused by the 2% of world population that is unvaccinated here. So let's just not protect them anymore. If they get it, they either build immunity or die and no longer are vectors. Everyone has had the chance. Some chose poorly.
  18. I don't understand and must be missing something. I'm sitting in the seat I purchased and selected. You're sitting in the seat you purchased and selected. Those people across the aisle are sitting in the seats that were purchased and selected for them. I fail to see what the issue is?
