I watched an entire football season of both college players and pros testing positive, quarantining, and going back to playing without so much as a second thought completely unaffected by their 'dangerous infection' I'm so sick of this shit... we're a nation of whiny little bitches You know that I'm 99% in agreement with you on the unnecessary closing of sports, schools, and businesses but in this case there were rules about outside contacts and for a few weeks before the biggest game of their lives. the players have a responsibility to go along with league rules no matter how foolish. We don't know the exact rules, but if a barber was t0 be tested and cleared before coming to the team facility so the players were even slightly less liable to be exposed, then Robinson had the duty to go alone with it. He's well paid to make that compromise. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's well paid to make that compromise. I don't disagree with that jet... but do we know the whole story? If he violated direct instructions from the team... he was clearly in the wrong. That said... are all players, coaches, trainers, staff etc supposed to be 100% quarantined? How about the players' wives/children/girlfriends etc? Are the players not going home or to their hotels after practice? Are they not allowed contact with any other people? If so, are the people they are allowed contact with getting covid tested every day like the barber? Are families quarantined too? Is Patrick allowed to stay with his wife? These are pretty important details I would think, but I admit I'm not up to speed on any of the precautions they are supposed to take. EDIT guess what I'm saying is, if they are limiting contact with all people, then yes he fucked up. But if players are allowed to visit wives, children, girlfriends, etc without the EXACT SAME testing protocols as the barber, then it's all just an exercise in futility. Especially with the high degree of false negatives. The whole damned thing is just such a fucking waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are pretty important details I would think, but I admit I'm not up to speed on any of the precautions they are supposed to take. The point is, he made a decision that could have potentially put a lot of key players in a position to miss the biggest game of their careers. This is a legacy game. For some of these guys it'll determine if they get in the HOF and for others it could put them in the goat conversation. What if Hill or Kelce or Mahomes tests positive and misses out. It doesn't matter if they are asymptomatic they cannot play if they test positive. I understand the wussification of America and I agree, but everyone in that building should be taking every precaution to protect themselves. It probably won't come back to bite him but it was a boneheaded decision. The article said players agreed for this guy to come...hence the 5days of testing before they let him in so why do you go the day before the barber is properly tested for 5 full days. Another issue I have is why did they let the cat in the building before his PCR test came back? Again it probably won't matter but it was definitely a bone headed decision. You can't control everyone that these guys come into contact with but you can limit your contact to non essential people leading up to this game. Especially Robinson who is a FA and could potentially have a crazy play, catch, game that could earn him millions, but you can't do that if you get your butt sent to the covid list for a hair cut.

mex 65,581 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I get all that Lamar... I mean jeezus we been dealing with this shit forever it's not all that hard to understand but my questions are valid... if the players are allowed contact with families... including wives, girlfriends, children... and if they are not quarantined to the same degree and held to the same protocols as the barber, then it's all a bunch of useless nonsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean heck our kids go to school, wear mask, have a plexiglass between the desks....then recess comes and kids are hugging, running around like wild beast and such. I mean what good is all the other crap if you allow recess? Lol I did think well what other players went with Robinson a day early? Maybe the team did allow it? But why weren’t there any other -layers put on the list? Tells me he went rogue and didn’t wait like the 20+ other players/coaches. you bring up family but again I’d like to think most players are not around people that have been out and about without masks/gloves. This game does mean that much. Not really a big deal if they get COVID health wise but the fact IF they get it NO SB for them or anyone else they spread it too REGARDLESS if it’s a made up virus from Jewish space ships or whatever lol. Players have to put real life on hold it’s just that simple. mex and oldtimer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I could agree robinsn screwed up, as long as all the players are sequestered with no outside contact but if they can come home to their wives and kids, and their wives and kids are going out to the supermarket, school, gas station, dentist... then it's kinda silly to blame robinson especially considering the barber was doing his part and getting tested I mean, it was the ORGANIZATION that allowed him to start cutting hair before the test results came in... halfway through they told him to stop but from what I heard they let him finish whoever he was cutting at the time if anything, we should be upset at the organization for risking those players, including Mahomes and Kelce who were supposedly there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really can't control everything and everyone. I know not everyone thinks like me but a barber has many clients from all different back grounds and would be a person that would instantly raise a red flag. Thankfully it looks like all is going to be fine. While I think it was a dumb and selfish decision I don't think he should be cut or anything like that. Its a judgment call on his end and while I don't agree with it its not like he's clubbing it up the night before a game or anything. mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That barber should have been isolated under quarantine for a month before being allowed to cut hair. What kind of a world are we living in? Robinson should not only be cut, he should be arrested and given a life sentence for endangering his teammates with a virus that has killed countless NFL players. JMO, of course. Don't cancel me.
