"Just to be clear COVID is not keeping me out of this game, the rules are." he wrote in a Tuesday post. "Vaxxed players are playing with Covid every week now because they don't test. One of my vaxxed teammates is in the hospital missing games. I'm sure he didn't get this same energy. Thank you for those who support. Everyone else, if you don't get what's happening then there is nothing anybody can do for you."

-- Cole Beasley

Brave and commendable.

… and I’m not anti-vax myself. I just think people have unique circumstances and should have the right to choose without sacrificing their livelihood nor have the mob come after them.

"One of my vaxxed teammates is in the hospital missing games."

I assume with Covid but, it's not clear.

That’s how I interpreted it as well.

"One of my vaxxed teammates is in the grave missing games." Pass the fake Covid part, go directly to the final curtain.

"“So what are we really talking about? I understand completely why the NFL is doing this. It gives them back the freedom to make the most money as possible again if everyone is vaccinated,” he wrote."

How does 100% vaccination help the NFL make more $$?

It doesn't for the league. They still have to test for a virus the vaccine was supposed to protect against.

Put this way, sports leagues are just making shit up. There are too many layers to it. Sports gambling being the biggest. Think about the advantage of knowing a player tests positive before it was made public? I think everyone has worked a job where they've learned something important before everyone else. If you're the coach or GM, you just tell your brother in laws friend for example to put $50k on a game because he knows who's in or out covid wise and take a 80-90% cut. Covid is a massive boon to insider betting. Includes low level people like the trainer or whoever took the test.

It's not foolproof, but if Rogers or Brady or similar are going to be out and you have 3-4 hours to place a bet before the public knows, you can win a shit ton of money. Covid has been great for sports gamblers with connections. Bigly.
