Nets ban Kyrie Irving from team until he’s vaccinated

Good on the Nets. There are rules ya gotta follow sometimes if you want a job. If Kyrie doesn't want to follow the rules, Kyrie doesn't get paid.

Stupidity is costing him over $300k a game.

He's in a lose lose situation. If he gets the shot he will look like an idiot and if he doesn't he will look like an idiot. He's clearly an idiot. It's good that these idiots are being punished for their stupidity. He clearly doesn't care enough about his team and winning. These guy's make sacrifices in all different ways to get in there and perform at their best. How many types of medications and shots has this idiot taken before to allow him to play?

I love seeing these vaccine refusers get pummeled.

Isn't he one of the Flat Earth NBAer's?

Good for the Nets. Can you imagine the financial loss if they have a Covid outbreak in the team. As I said on another thread, these are good, sound business decision.

Yep, he must be a Trump supporter.

Legally he can't play in home games or practice with the team in New York. That's what this is about and the Nets made the right decision.

What I heard reported is that he will not be allowed to play or practice period....not just in New York.

Right, but if the team would have allowed it, he could have played just road games.

Yes I understood that which is why I said "Good for the Nets"

Yep, he must be a Trump supporter.

And lest we forget, we have elected a president who freely traffics in conspiracy theories and pseudo-science. During his campaign, Donald Trump repeatedly suggested that vaccines are connected to autism. As president. he has appointed science doubters such as EPA chief Scott Pruitt, who has insisted that we should “continue to debate” whether human beings are the prime cause of global warming.

Irving couldn’t have put it better himself. And his comments about the shape of the Earth put him firmly in league with Trump, Pruitt and others, mocking science by raising false doubts about it.

Out in the blogosphere, some critics have suggested that Irving’s remarks were just a gambit to promote his new movie. Who knows? Whatever his motives, Kyrie Irving has reinforced the toxic cynicism that pervades so much of our public culture in the Age of Trump. Shame on him.

Kyrie Irving and the politics of cynicism - WHYY

According to a 2016 survey, a third of American teachers are open to the idea that climate change might be naturally occurring instead of something caused by humans.
