Everything 2021-2022 Season

good reason to start the climb back to 500 ball I suppose

Conflicted. With a loss to Golden State, we might have earned a top ten draft pick when they cancel the season next week. But, if all the teams are going to stop their stars from crossing the border, 81-0 here we go! For home games.
That said, it seems like there is no way they will shut things down with the news that if your best players are in protocol, you just have to call up anyone from the Republic to fill the roster spots. Thanks going to make for some janky games.

The money is too good. There is no way they fully cancel. They could go to a bubble situation if necessary but no way they cancel this. So as long as we have plans to train we could come back stronnnnng

And now the Cavs without Mobley. Seems like there’s something around every corner.

I've been doing that since April 2020. Much healthier. Do what you can to stay fit and healthy and enjoy your life. Been enjoying this week collecting free lunches and beers from all my buddies who said the vaccines and passports would get everything back to normal. Putting on a few pounds!

Vaccines are ending the pandemic, though. I'm no expert, but it seems like vaccines have been a (or the) key catalyst to trigger the virus to mutate to a less virulent and highly transmissible form in order to survive. Like AI and Berta said, that's the way pandemics normally end. So... human made vaccines minimized hospitalizations and death (from Delta), while effectively triggering a better, natural global vaccine (Omicron) that everyone will catch whether they want to or not. Your buddies should hold on to their receipts.

Kyrie took one day to make it onto the covid protocol list.

He gets paid now!

I think he was still getting paid for road games. The nets caved and were going to bring him back as a part time player for non-new York games

Lots of bosses in the states. Why do you think deaths were at a rate three times the rate in Canada? If they acted less boss they probably would have saved 500,000 lives. This qanon, antivax right shit is an embarrassment to America (a bit here too) Are Italians crying wheres my rights? The french, the chinese, the koreans, the indians? Nope its mostly some qanon type degenerate in the states thats coughing in some walmart employees face.

we saved thousands of Canadian lives by being cautious and courteous. Even though theres been some inconveniences Im happy those fellow Canadians are alive it was all worth it

It's funny you ask why US rate is 3x that of is here.
Maybe coz we are 3x healthier?

This is good. Like i said a page earlier. What we wanted all along. A more transmissible less severe mutation. It is a sign it is is turning to a endemic not a pandemic.
Kinda weird that everyone is stoking a narrative that new variant=Bad.
Virus never stop mutating. Mutating to less severe was always going to be the end goal. People freaking out when this is a natural progression and should sort of be cheered honestly.

Blame your fear mongering media.

The NBA and teh NHL need to adapt the new NFL ways if they wanna save their season. Quit testing the vaccinated players with no symptoms. It makes zero sense to be testing the vaccinated everyday that has no symptoms. The only players that should be tested are the unvaccinated ones and the vaccinated ones with symptoms. Because believe it or not "pausing" the season or just shutting down everything again isn't going to just magically make this virus disappear.

Yeah I'd bet a lot of us who are vaccinated have had it and have no idea because we don't test ourselves every single day (or ever).

I live in the USA and it's weird how politics warps people's minds. When Trump was president all the Republicans were pro Vax and democrats weren't and then when Biden won it flipped. If your political party dictates life and death decisions in your day to day life you have a smooth brain and need to rethink how you live.

He tried and got booed at a rally then stopped. His fan base went anti Vax when he lost.

that was very late. In fact, if I remember the timeline correctly that was late in his campaign. He started something with out any regard to where it would lead. That is what happens when you play with ppl's emotions.

With regards to the NBA they will update their protocols fast.

The booing was at a post presidency rally where he was saying how amazing the vaccine is and taking credit and everyone booed him because his supporters are all anti Vax now. So he pivoted and now doesn't take credit for the vaccines anymore.
