You are right. The strong Republican values of the Black community are keeping them from the vaccine

Nah, more likely ignorance & distrust/lack of familiarity with overall healthcare

Rather than political defiance

After refusing to receive a vaccine for COVID-19, Rick Dennison is out as a Minnesota Vikings assistant coach, sources told ESPN on Friday.


Why people care about a damn vaccine so much? If you aren't super old and/or have major health problems, you have little to no risk of dying or even being hospitalized from covid. Hell I'd rather get infected and lost smell/taste temporarily and gain antibodies than risk it with a fast-tracked vaccine, just logic at this point.

Not sure why they did that but if I had to guess it is because the players are irreplaceable, support staff isnt. You can’t require all players to get vaccinated bc the league would fall apart. You can always find another assistant coach somewhere

We can count our lucky stars people like you weren’t the majority 100 years ago or most of us would be blond haired and blue eyed or have a little eye slant depending on which side of the country we happened to be born on.

The CWS was a shiteshow because of this.

If this is the norm, sports are done.

Congrats LSU, you won the last legit Championship in sports.

I mean really just stop playing if these mandates and protocols are going to continue indefinitely.

This population control has been long predicted.

Imagine shutting down the world for a virus that has a 99.85% survival rate. He’s probably more skeptical of the mRNA tech in the vax, which was rushed through normal trial and error in humans, and has been deadly to every other creature who has been tested with it.

Has he already had covid? If so, what ingredients in the lab jab don’t exist in the virus to protect you from virus.

If every other member of the Vikings organization has been vaccinated, what does it matter if this coach gets covid.

Probably

Yeah, I’m sure if Dalvin Cook or Justin Jefferson refused they’d be on waivers

Remember 20 years ago when American leftists at least pretended to be distrustful of their government and large corporations? Now it's either obey or be destroyed.

Unfortunately social media, including sites like this one, has led to the downfall of this nation. fricking idiots, like Froman, have a voice that they did not have before. So many uneducated people have a voice spewing shite they have no clue what they are talking about. They believe everything the shitty liberal media is feeding them instead of using the few brain cells they have.

They are going to require vaccinations for players eventually. Players will have the option to opt out and not play. I believe over 70% of the league is vaccinated. When it goes to a vote, the unvaccinated will lose. You already see players splitting into factions. There will be a few stars, like a Hopkins that will either fold or leave..

Anyone who disagrees with this statement is in on the hoax and in deep with the Swamp. after an entire year plus change, no other possibilities, simple as that.

Wait has the coach in question already had Covid? If so can’t a medical exemption be granted?

Where did I say they would cut those players?

The fringe roster players absolutely will be at risk for getting cut if they don’t get vaccinated and are a risk for the team not worth the reward of being on the roster from the teams perspective. It’s not a controversial opinion
