Why the big hero's welcome back for Baltimore QB Lamar Jackson? He had COVID cuz . . . .

. . . . he has refused to get vaccinated.

Wutta hero, huh?

Nice example, huh?

Ya know what's worse? This is his SECOND go-round with COVID.

For what he and any sports lunkhead gets paid they can fucking-A-well get vaccinated and do what is best FOR THE TEAM THAT PAYS THEM.

country is chock full of assholes and idiots, so so is the NFL.

As far as I'm concerned, foozbull fans who cheer for their especially moronic favorite player/team just because they are "winners" are on par with Repukes who liked Trump because he "won." Never mind the moral abomination you are cheering for.

Absolute fuckwittery. Heroes and villains are not heroes and villains because they win and lose respectively. That's just how people shape fiction because it makes for more satisfying stories -- the hero wins because he's the hero, he doesn't become the hero because he won.

Too bad these villains are based in reality, not fiction, because there is no author to formulate a proper comeuppance for them at the end of a tight three-act drama...
