The NFL put big time pressure on these guys to get the vaccine. Whether you like that tactic or not, it does seem to be working. Players are either doing a 180 after being provided more information, caving to the pressure, or simply making a new "business decision". But not everyone who doesn't want to get the vaccine, whatever their reason, is going to fold under the applied pressure; and I think the majority of players understand and respect that. It's mostly fans ("But I've been a die hard fan for years, what if they have to forfeit games") that don't respect the players' individual decisions.
Sorry Chief but I really have a hard time with that part of the argument. Saying "I wish they did that" and not respecting someone's personal decision are 2 different things IMO.
We all have opinions about a lot of things all the time. I don't get why having an opinion about the best option on this particular matter is suddenly such a massive issue...
Like, if an environmentalist says "I wish more people would use public transportation rather than individual cars" (not "any body who owns a car should be sent to jail/fired from their jobs"), is it a breach in individual freedom ?
