Same for NBA's Kyrie Iriving.

The liberal elites of the NFL and NBA didn't think there would be sports stars smart enough to challenge their vaccine mandates.

One of my favorite jokes is to say that the Packers have the worst owner in the NFL.

I don't recall Aaron Rogers disrespecting the flag and calling the NFL slaveowners while on TV.

His personal choices are all off the field.

How would you challenge the NFL vaccination mandate since it doesn't exist?

Now if Rodgers had started a player revolt including on-field protests against vaccination and done all sorts of interviews and so forth saying vaccinations are bad blah blah blah THEN you'd have a valid comparison.

P.S. Rodgers was trying to quietly slide by without getting vaxxed, but got caught. How the heck does that....nevermind, there is no rationale for trying to drag Kap into this beyond partisan wierdness that is inexplicable.
You're usually pretty sharp, so I'll help you out - "shut up and dribble" didn't have anything to do with Kaep.

The original anti-vaxxers were often far left ‘only natural’ hippie types like Worley is.

TV and film are expensive to make even when everything is going well, and expensive production delays from a covid outbreak on set is something no one with the project wants. Remember Tom Cruise losing it last year when he felt like crew were not following covid control rules for the movie he was working on

Not taking the vax might be a good way to slow down the pass rush.

Nothing to do with disrespecting the flag or calling the NFL slaveowners.

Sheesh, people!

NFL has 100 employees or more. Temporarily corporate America/big business normally loathed are 'ok' if they abide by Biden's mandate hence the likes of CNN whining.

How did the NFL or sports league survive last year.
