the NFL tests their unvaccinated players everyday

Biden's 100 employee rule is tested weekly

I'm sure the NBA will test weekly, if not more often like the NFL

No conundrum at all


Have you heard the tone of the White House of mainstream media on the subject? Not devaluing your personal stance, but almost everyone on the left is full Branch Covidians at this point, and they are the loudest barking dogs with the biggest soap boxes. This is a monster conundrum.

NFL players aren’t required to get vaccinated either. There’s plenty of high profile players (Lamar Jackson, Carson Wentz, Kirk Cousins) who haven’t gotten vaccinated yet. Only thing is that they’re required to quarantine for five days if they contact somebody with CoVid. I’m sure the NBA will have similar rules as well.

So how are the unvaccinated players going to play in Toronto?
Dont' you have to be vaccinated to travel there, or you have to quarantine?

Is the NBA going to make the Raptors play in Tampa again b/c Lebron doesn't want to get the vaccine?

I wonder how stringently the league is verifying if those in the 85% have actually been vaccinated?

Well, the NBA players aren't employees of the NBA. They are employees of teams.


Every team organization has hundreds of employees.

Try again.

Lebron was prepared for this moment. He’s used to refusing to take the shot when it matters.

That seems like a lot

The usual traveling party for an NBA team is like 30 people between players, coaches, trainers, and scouts. Then you need people back home that do the marketing and sell tickets, and then the executives.

A lot of people you see at a game that you think work for the team work for the arena

EDIT- traveling parties for the bubble were 37, and last season they were 45

No major pro league has instituted a vaccination requirement for its players.

That would include, NHL, MLB, NFL, and NBA, for the hard of hearing.

Oh, well, that's because you're an idiot. But that's a totally different subject.

However, most companies will make it at the expense of the employee if I had to guess. Punch in the gut to the lower and middle class. NFL and NBA will just continue doing what theyve been doing.
