A buddy of mine is a Baltimore County police officer. He told me the union signed off on that for police officers. If they are positive and asymptomatic they are on duty. They aren't even make considerations for retirement communities etc. I get that police officers have far more essential jobs than footballers though.

Yeah…the unions have been those push back groups.

I mean thats pretty bold, I feel like you should be at home sick.

They should have been testing everyone every 2 days. It was stupid to set up a different testing regime for Vax vs unvax. Or just let them fricking play and do this shit on individuals own time. These guys aren't at risk for s and it's stupid to keep anyone who is asymptomatic (regardless of vax status) out of games.

My fantasy football brain says yes but I think once you open this can you can’t go back. I think optics would be bad.

The National Covid League

Re: Coronavirus (sports edition) thread
 

What optics are worse, letting asymptomatic guys play or seeing games where teams barely have enough guys to suit up and the quality of the games suffering greatly? We're going to have scab game quality before we know it.

@AlbertBreer
Sources: Owners and execs were told by the NFL this morning that the league is discussing significant changes to COVID-19 protocols with the union.

Re: Coronavirus (sports edition) thread
 

Gotta start testing EVERYONE everyday like the NFLPA wanted to do in the first place.

Matty, you may be onto something:

@MarkMaske
The NFL is considering a protocol tweak that would allow vaccinated, asymptomatic players who test positive for the coronavirus to return to team activities sooner, sources say.

Re: Coronavirus (sports edition) thread
 

Unless it is after those players show a negative test, then that is dumber than not testing everyone daily, and basically why they are in the current predicament. Players who are positive but don't know it, going about their normal business infecting everyone else. The only difference here is the players are positive and know it - going about their normal business...

While you are at it, tell him to enact a vaccine mandate and get rid of Snyder? Thanks.

I wonder if this will impact fans coming into stadiums to watch games too?
