NFL's Roger Goodell Continues to Turn His League Into a Dumpster Fire: Will Fine Unvaccinated Players
By Mike Miller | Jul 24, 2021 10:30 PM ET

It’s almost like NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has been trying to drive as many fans away from his league as he can since the early days of “peaceful protests” in the aftermath of the death of George Floyd.

From embarrassingly prostrating himself before the Black Lives Matter altar to buying — hook, line, and sinker — the nonsensical narrative about non-existent “systemic racism” and “white supremacy,” I am unaware of anyone in the history of professional sports who made a more pathetic fool of him or herself.

Setting aside Goodell’s multiple blathering apologies as “peaceful protesters” tried their damnedest to burn American cities to the ground, virtually kissing Colin Kaepernick’s ass, and allowing ridiculous “protest messages” on player jerseys, let’s just talk about the last several days, shall we?

As we reported on Friday, the NFL announced that it had informed teams that “if a game cannot be rescheduled during the 18-week season in 2021 due to a COVID outbreak among unvaccinated players, the team with the outbreak will FORFEIT and be credited with a loss for playoff seeding, per sources.”

NFL has been dead to me the past couple of years. Could not care any less what Goodell does to it.

Some can't get past the "games" and continue to watch, that's their prerogative.

Throwing our allegiances to political parties in the long run gave away our liberty.

Same hear.  Pretty much that way with all pro sports now and college football is headed for the dumpster as well.

The Olympics has already arrived IMHO.

So how much is the fine?

How much? “The standard fine is $14,650 for a violation of the COVID-19 protocols,” per NBC Sports.
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
I will NOT comply.

Not the only bonehead move by Goodell.  He decreed the "black national anthem" will be sung at every game.

The NFL managed to reschedule every COVID-related disruption within the season last year... without vaccines. Plus, the NFL has never forfeited a single game in its history. It's all empty bluster, "sound and fury, signifying nothing."

So a player can pay $15k and then never get asked again about whether they've been vaccinated?  At that pay grade, I would gladly stroke a check for that.  And in the end, non-vaccinated players would be playing alongside vaccinated players, with no negative effect to either.  Except that the league was able to single out and extort money from those who do not share its political beliefs.

Segregated national anthems.  How quaint.

That is the definition of racism, to favor one race over another.

He is too stupid to realize that.

It's not that he doesn't realize it.  He just doesn't have a problem with it.
