We should be really worried about the team being impacted by this…I think it’s very possible we could forfeit a game.

I really think RR thought the team would do it to help protect him and everyone on the team. IMO he's disappointed that guys aren't being team players about something so simple and easy.

Why is it so "simple and easy?" It's their bodies, and it's their right if they choose to be reluctant, as well as it's the right for people who choose to get vaccinated.

I understand that there are NFL players who probably have health conditions that may be affected by the vaccine (i.e. Sweat with his heart issue). But it is a bit hard for me to take serious someone who just doesn't want to get vaccinated without any apparent reason, when they are also making a business decision to play in a sport that has been shown to carry a lot of health risks in the long term.

Also, NFL players always make decisions on their health with a business aspect in mind (i.e. treatment for injury, etc., etc.). So this is not something new for them; however, what is different is that their decision vastly affects others.

Everyone has a choice, regardless whether you consider it a bit hard for you take seriously.

Once again, there's empirical evidence (as Schneed also stated) that there could be reactions to the vaccination, whether in the short or long-term, as well as many people wondering what they're taking or getting via the vaccination (ie, the Tuskegee Experiment and 1976 Swine Flu).

LOL, Maybe, he was calling you an idiot (or not). But he was saying what I recently posted.
