Titans, Vikings Shut Down In-Person Activities After Members Test Positive For Covid-19 | MSNBC
I was waiting for this news. Baseball had a breakout shortly after they started to play. So I thought well where is the covid positives on football? Is it because it makes too much money?? Oh well the football players will recover just like most people and life will go on. Enough of the fear tactics
You can social distance a little more with baseball not football
They caught it tackling where else they grab each other no mask breathing heavy they do have a mouth piece who knows we do know you cant social distance in football
These people are multi-million dollar properties for their team owners. Those who own horses probably have more sense to know how to keep them from getting sick.
Teams from places where Trump did stupid super spreader events…and Bingo!
look what happens.
@StreetLogic – Well, look at Sturgis. 400,000 people with no masks & no social distancing. The day the rally started, South Dakota had a very respectable 5.7% positive test rate for COVID. Today, they are the worst in the country with a 25.5% positive test rate.

@StreetLogic – Of course, you are going to say that it is just a coincidence. However, researchers have been using cell phone data to track those rally attendees when they went home. 460 counties (over 650 people per county) now show an uptrend in COVID cases where almost all of them were on a downward trend prior to Sturgis. Once again, you will call this coincidence. But, most of the new cases are now in the middle of the country.

@ra5928 Facts hurt my feelings.🥺
@StreetLogic – I know. But it doesn’t change the fact that they are facts. I’m really surprised that you didn’t say “fake news”.
@ra5928 Well facts are facts and im middle of the road. I don’t care what side you’re on. Show me the car fax and ill listen.
45 tells all his base to get out & vote it’s safe..Why doesn’t he care what’s going on in America.It’s too soon ..If we would have followed all the other countries in the begining we would be enjoying our America.but when you have a liar, & someone who doesnt care about American people this is what happens…Vote him out..No squatter’s right..
Well I guess football is done for 2020.
As of today…210,037 people have passed away in America due to Covid 19.
Trump will mop the floor with Leg Hair Joe tonight 😆

Willy that’s wishful thinking Princess
You’re numbers are wrong. With covid and because of covid are 2 different things
@Paul Knowsit Covid 19 are not two different things…My Numbers are from World O meters…a very accurate group who information is used by governments and universities outside of the US.
Those are the true Numbers.
@4 YOU You are fake news. With Covid and Because of covid are 2 different numbers. Do more research. Don’t use CNN numbers
Dont much care what happens to the vikings anymore. Their season is dead and gone cause they have cousins an extension and now were paying the price.
It should’ve magically gone away by now..
This is how magic and reality don’t mix! Mr Joker.
William H why do you make HOMOSEXUAL music
Now that I think about it. The made up “anonymous” source story of Trumps tax, was used a weapon for a Drug test NOT to happened. We all know Joe is on Enhancement drugs. So they made the story…. drug test for Biden, then trump show his tax(which is nobodies business). Dirty tactics . That is the dirty warfare the left is doing, to prevent any exposure of Joe Biden
Tech Ti you’re getting desperate snowflake
Tech Ti<------Copy & paste tRoll.
It will magically disappear “What virus” , to “it’s a hoax”, to herd immunity, trumps plan is working he wants everyone to catch covid19 and die , he also steals money from the government when he does his taxes a clear evil trump villain, Biden Harris 2020 make America safe and free again from the Trump virus and Russia , NFL and staff and players can’t stop from catching the virus and they want to put our kids back into school?
Republicans are all horrible parents to want to put their kids back in school to sacrifice them to get the Economy running again, instead of testing and tracing Trump thinks herd immunity will work because his crazy x-ray doctor told him it would work 🤯
I knew this was going to happen
“Let them play” Trump says…more like “Let them die”
NFL IS A RELIEF FROM POLITICS , ENTER LIBERALS. THEY RUIN EVERYTHING.
Mike briganti keep crying snowflake
99.97% survival rate says you are wrong and believe anything fake news throws at you
After the governor of Florida declared “everything is OK here” and removed all restrictions … I can see their football teams being boycotted by the rest of the teams … eventually. Who knows. I hope I’m wrong, but COVID seems to love people who don’t take care.
Well duh! It was going to happen sooner or later. They constantly ram into each other and breathing in each others faces. The NFL should of just cancelled their whole season.
NFL “will suspend in-person club activities starting today.” How about the games in interest of Players Health and thier families.
Sorry, I forgot that the NFL only cares about the money!
“I take no responsibility at all” – Trump, Impeached 45th POTUS
“What virus” , to “it’s a hoax” , to herd immunity, trumps plan is working he wants everyone to catch covid19 and die , he also steals money from the government a clear evil trump villain, Biden Harris 2020 make America safe and free again from the Trump virus and Russia
You sheep are hilarious
I love football but my feelings wouldn’t be hurt if the NFL took this season off. Too many injuries with no preseason along with COVID. Be proactive. 🙏🏼
Not to mention all the social justice warrior B.S I agree, end it now
What do you expect they are getting helmet to helmet to talk to each other without masks on you have head coaches like Pete Carroll that thinks he has to pull his mask down every time he speaks and then he’ll go into the clubhouse and scream at the top of his lungs about how great his players are along with 90% of the other coaches in this league!!!! For any people that think that the NFL is composed of rocket scientists is probably a cult follower as well!!!! I am a veteran and we would go on alert for up to 90 days at a time for up to 18 hours at a time wearing full chem suits along with gas masks. Y’all make me sick!!!
Ha! Good job. Serves them right. They were told of the dangers of this virus and they still make their players risk their health and for what?

For MONEY, silly!

Wimps.
