SP fined $100k for no mask

Cruize · 09-25-2020, 07:15 AM

It's okay for 22 players to dogpile on each other for four quarters, but a coach lowering his mask to call plays is the absolute worst and will lead to all our deaths? Come on. Payton could be caught pooting on tape and would be fined. Belichick and Kraft could shoot someone on 5th avenue...............

I wear a mask at work, when I shop, and when I'm around a lot of people. Basically when I'm out of my house. I believe it is an aid in preventing/slowing down the spread of the virus. I don't see it as a choice. Driving a red car is choice. Drinking a Coke is a choice. Be a good person. Be a good American. Help contribute to the greater good during a pandemic that has taken the lives of over 200K Americans. It's probably the least/easiest thing you can ever do in your life to be helpful to those around you.

If you truly believe this, you would have been wearing a mask your entire life, the number of immunocompromised ppl that you, and I come into contact with on a daily basis is staggering. Same for ppl undergoing various oncologist treatments. Same for children with underdeveloped immune systems. Same for diabetics and obesity, heart disease COPD, etc...

Wearing a mask is virtue signaling. It’s basically Stuart from MadTV saying “Look what I can do”.

Pandemic? lol, Seriously? We have enough test kits to test the entire population of this country every month, multiple millions of tests are created every day. What we don’t have is enough labs to process those tests. And the NFL has taken away labs to perform thousands upon thousands of tests every day for millionaire athletes, for..., wait for it..., Entertainment? lol. Yeah right, there’s some “virtue” for you. If “because..., pandemic” were that worrisome, no professional sports would be happening right now.

Anybody who buys into “be a good citizen, wear your mask” also buys gold from William Devane and Rosland Capital. If you truly want to be a good citizen..., you’ll live the rest of your life with a mask on.

That’s just not my idea of life, or liberty. But if others feel like virtue signaling then I get it, I understand the logic there, I just question why they haven’t been a “good American” for years previously, for some of us, decades.

As far as that “death toll” number, it’s accuracy can be fairly questioned. But regardless, ppl die. Heck, ppl have died in car crashes, or alcohol/drug poisoning, even suicide, that are lumped into that “death toll” number.

I don't mind wearing a mask at all. It gives me another way to rock the black and gold. Every mask I have is a Saints mask, except for one that is an Atlanta Braves mask for the playoffs. I've actually been a Braves fan for longer than I have been a Saints fan (1967) ... since the early 60's when they were still in Milwaukee with Hank Aaron, Eddie Matthews, Joe Torre and Warren Spahn.

Wear it if you want, or like, for whatever reasons. I just don’t like others sticking their nose into my business, doubly so for a governmental entity.

No need to flex your age. We all know you had the Jesus Christ Starter jacket with the 10 Commandments down the sleeve.
