I just don't get the outrage when this has been in place since before the season started.
More importantly, there was nothing stupid about NYC did. They passed multiple mandates to cover various sectors. They couldn’t cover out of state performers because they aren’t employed by an NYC corporation. Kyrie would be in the same situation if he played in San Fran. People really think that rallying around a dude who has gone to work less than 20 times this year and made like 17 million dollars is the political hill to die on? You’re going to explain that to the NYers who got fired for not being vaccinated? The best way for this to get lifted is to not make it about Kyrie and let logic and numbers take over. It’s obviously trending that way. Stop making it about pending to public pressure to get a millionaire the right to play a game.
I will agree that no one in New York actually understands the rules. But the rules did make sense, and then they kept bending and modifying to try to allow New York to be as “normal” as possible. The sudden outrage came when Silver went on ESPN.
California has rolled back a lot of covid related shyt. NY should too. Especially if he can enter the building as a fan. Makes zero sense. I thought everyone had to be vaxed and have proof. Including fans.
They just ended that this past week, which is why everyone is complaining again about Kyrie not being able to play. They're wondering what the hold up is (and I get it because really, mask wearing is only mandatory in certain spots)
NY is one of those places where you don't REALLY need to root stuff in politics.
We’re probably about a week away from hearing that Ben is out for the season
