NFL going fully Woke and eventually Broke

First the playing of the Black National Anthem at all games, and now teams will be forced to forfeit games due to unvaccinated players. You couldn't write the playbook for the total collapse of the NFL better than this.

I thought there was an effective vaccine?

So how will that play out financially, they have to give the networks a credit for not having a game to televise?

We are about to see reality TV play out. Well, I am not going to watch, so keep us posted.

Giving up sports makes not caring about these issues so much easier!

What's the penalty for kneeling during the black national anthem?

The entire teams are entirely vaccinated. Nobody can get the bat soup, Chinese virus, Mexican beer 19 flu.

What about forfeiting games due to outbreaks caused by the vaccinated players? Why do they get a pass?

Oh my goodness, that would be glorious to see happen! I do wonder how many will stand for the bna but kneel for the real national anthem?

The National Football League is bringing the hammer down with gusto on unvaccinated players and their teams.
The league on Thursday issued a memo stating that if a team experiences a COVID-19 outbreak among unvaccinated players and a game can't be rescheduled within the 18-week season, the team with the outbreak among unvaccinated players will forfeit the game, NBC Sports reported.
NFL Network's Tom Pelissero posted about the memo on Twitter, noting that it said the league doesn't anticipate "adding a '19th week' to accommodate games that cannot be rescheduled within the current 18 weeks of the regular season."
And of major importance to the players themselves, the memo also said if such a game is forfeited, none of the players from either team will get paid, NBC Sports added.
"Every club is obligated under the Constitution and Bylaws to have its team ready to play at the scheduled time and place," Commissioner Roger Goodell said in the memo, according to NBC Sports. "A failure to do so is deemed conduct detrimental. There is no right to postpone a game."
More from the outlet:
In addition to the threat of forfeiture, the memo also states that a club with an unvaccinated outbreak that forces a rescheduled game will be "responsible for all additional expenses incurred but the opposing team and will also be required to pay any shortfall between actual and expected payment to the VTS pool."
What if vaccinated players test positive for COVID?
Oh, it's an entirely different story if vaccinated players test positive for COVID-19, as breakthrough cases have been on the rise and have been acknowledged by the powers that be as a distinct post-jab possibility.
NBC Sports noted that if vaccinated players test positive and are asymptomatic, they can return to their teams "after two negative tests at least 24 hours apart. And those who are vaccinated will not be forced to quarantine after close contact with someone who tests positive."
Pelissero wrote that this is "the NFL's strongest step yet to incentivize vaccinations. In essence, vaccination status dictates action." With that, he noted another tidbit from the memo: "If a club cannot play due to a COVID spike in vaccinated individuals, we will attempt to minimize the competitive and economic burden on both participating teams."
On the contrary, players who are unvaccinated and test positive "will be isolated for 10 days and will be able to return once they're asymptomatic," NBC Sports said, adding that if unvaccinated players come in contact with "with someone who tests positive, they must be quarantined for five days."

No it won’t because cowards that claim on here “ill never watch another game” end up with “well, I won’t watch another game unless its my team” and then its “I wont watch another game unless its my team or the playoffs”.
I haven’t watched an LSU game or NFL game outside of the Super Bowl (just to see Brady stick it to the politically correct) in the last 2 years
frick them all.

NFL collapse? Yea that should happen right about the time elephants sprout wings and fly around the world.

Don’t follow any of it. But if this is all true, NFL fans are just as ridiculous & disrespectful as the NFL itself.

They always said the NFL stands for "Not For Long".
Well, it sure has lasted long enough. Sadly, I figure it will withstand this shite too. It's about politics, and the league will get propped up if they fall. The league is a great tool to promote their cultural marxism, racism and socialism. They won't let that go broke.
