Big Ten COVID Cancellation Policy

When the vaccinated get sick and they blame the new variant how will they explain how the unvaccinated have escaped all strains and variants?
Roses are red
free thinkers are few
If you keep following orders
you'll have a chip
inserted in you
 
It is foolish not to be vaccinated...

Folks with their conspiracy theories are pre-disposed to irrational beliefs and are fortified by confirmation bias, probably have watched too many movies.

Moreover, have no idea what real tyranny is...
Even if I am inclined to agree with you - I wish we could avoid these debates on here - let's focus on the football (and I am guilty of going off topic as much as anyone). At this point it is game week - I plan to focus on games going forward.

This is where they move the goal post again and recommend that annual booster for the:

Delta, Echo, Foxtrot, Golf, Hotel, India, Juliet, Kilo, Lima, Mike, November, Oscar, Papa, Quebec, Romeo, Sierra, Tango, Uniform, Victor, Whiskey, X-ray, Yankee, Zulu

Variants.
So the appropriate response to this proliferation of variants should be...what?

To NOT get an annual booster?

Let's all play safe and get psyched for Game One of Husker football!

Good grief, same old same old. Go from talking policy and forfeits to chips and Mid-East/Asian politic blaming.
Give me a good old ham sandwich debate.
The perfect ham sandwich is hot, with Swiss cheese. Someone try to dissuade me!
 
Can we all just agree besides the old guys watching Marcus Welby MD and the younger guys and gals watching Doogie Howser nobody knows nuthin about nuthin. Except for football. We all know everything about football!

If I were in my early 20s and knew no one dying of covid, and maybe someone in my circle who knows someone in their 20s whomay have been in hospital, and everyone was fine, deciding on whether to get the vax or not comes with some weird accusations, I may be resentful to such thinking.
Rutgers just lost a precious 4star DB because being private they mandated it. This is what happens when mandates meet freedom of choice in barely affected individuals.
When we decide to not respect individual freedoms/choices we will always have division. Last time I checked, thats alone is the worst outcome.
With freedom and choices comes responsibilities, and forfeits are appropriate

See, there is a problem here. The same leaders who want to force things, they themselves don't really believe what they are saying. Pelosi and her ilk have been exposed on several occasions ripping off their mask after they thought the cameras were off. Newsome's birthday party and of course the biggest no mask lollapalooza, Obamas party, which was chock-full of liberal politicians who seemed to have no concern whatsoever being exposed in a large crowd.
Now why do you think that is?

Thank goodness your parents didn't take this approach or deadly diseases like polio -- which killed my aunt and nearly killed my mother as teenagers -- would still exist instead of being essentially wiped out.

If someone is going to make the decision to avoid getting the covid vaccine shots, no one is going to come around to their homes and force them to. But on the other hand, I fully support employers requiring them of their employees and universities requiring them of their students, faculty, and staff.

This ain't political, it's plain ol' common sense. It's past time to put this damn pandemic behind us.

What a nice pleasant way to say that those who disagree with you on this issue should lose their ability to make out a livelihood.
I'll engage you. What should happen to these people when they can no longer afford their daily necessities?
Thrown out in the streets? Put in a camp?
If we are playing this game then the obese, drunk drivers, smokers, heavy drinkers, McDonald's patrons etc should all be barred from having a job.

You do raise a good point.

But I have some questions for you.

Delta Airlines just issued a new policy that requires their non vaccinated employees pay an additional $200 per month for their healthcare insurance. Do you agree that is reasonable?

To put this in a football context.
- Would you be happier if you knew the person next to you at the game had been vaccinated? Or would it not matter at all?

- Will you be ticked off if Nebraska has to forfeit a game this year because one of the 10% of the un-vaccinated part of the team introduces Covid to the team?
