Why wouldn’t it be

Simply because many people know where Russell Wilson stands when it comes to politics and I have to be very careful in how I word things to make sure I post within your rules. Many things that almost all who post here can lead into what you define as politics when that is not the intention of the poster so I'm just trying to be careful with my wording, that's all.

No every disagreement is political but again you go to name calling when you don’t get your way .
its pretty easy to see how the debate on vaccines gets political .

it could have very easily gone to sports teams until country and you started to stray and the possibility of politics entered the realm

that is when I stepped in . If you don’t like my reasoning so be it but I am going to enforce the rules agreed upon by the users.

I am human and I make mistakes . You can accept that or don’t , I don’t care and if you want to have a hissy fit you go right on ahead and I will deal with it by every means available to me

my patience and my giving you latitude is reaching my limits because NOTHING I have done ,merely saying there’s no place for that here , merits the reaction you have given me .
I treated you like an adult now act like one

I am not going to allow it period , if you want to PM about it with each other then go for it .
Next mention of it gets them all deleted

If you don’t understand how that opens the door then I can’t help you .

I am nipping this in the bud right now


That is when I called you what you are. It wasn’t name calling…it was what you were being. Now the dicktator may have been AP,at on words, but it was what you were by definition.

Will there be special COVID rules this season regarding a vaccine? The answer is yes. Is it going to stop everything? Nope, apparently not because 8 Yankees got COVID. How is that being political? That was my first response. How do we discuss alternatives to this NFL season as fans? How about when there are special rules for those who have not been vaccinated in the stands? I thought this was a forum for sport’s fans.

Political is defined as relating to the government or public affairs of a country. Nobody mentioned the government or public affairs.


Insulting and demeaning statements by you in this thread verbatim…

“If you don’t understand how that opens the door then I can’t help you . I am nipping this in the bud right now”. Dictatorial statement


“If you don’t understand how that opens the door then I can’t help you . I am nipping this in the bud right now” Insulting statement as well as demeaning

“Bill fucking Maher is a political commentator end of discussion”. Angry and demeaning statement




So please look in the mirror and take heed. You made your decision. It was autonomous and without discussion. You assumed everything would go one way and closed discussion on a very important topic for the upcoming season in the NFL.

saying I'm not taking the vaccine is not political when the J&J vaccine was already causing health problems and now not protecting against covid as in the article NY Yankees players
I have explained it already

I do live with it. You just don’t like it when people point out the flaws in what you say and do. I asked you very pertinent questions. You choose not to admit you are wrong. I give you definitions of the words that you use to ban posts. I show you the ways it pertains to this team and football in general to promote discussion.

Dictator is defined as a person with total power.
King is a male ruler.
Master is a person who has complete control over something.

You made your call and I disagree with it. Feel free to stop commenting and I will also.

The vaccine isnt 100% effective against catching covid, in the same way a flu shot isnt 100% effective in preventing you from catching the flu.
It’s close to 100% effective in lessening your synptoms of covid, however.

Also, understanding science helps.

Also, who gives a fuck if you are or are not going to get the vaccine? I certainly do not.

Also, as an outsider to this particular disagreement, it certainly seems like both sides should lighten up, Francis.

Anywhoo, back to lurking for me until there’s real WTF news....

I am actually with you. I got attacked for being ”political.”

I am taking the vaccine when I get home. My wife is not. We each have our own choices.

I simply brought an article stating that the Yankees had 8 fully vaccinated people catch COVID. The same protocols are likely going to take place in the NFL. It is a pretty good topic…I thought.

I dont think that it’s not a good topic. Double
Negative, lemme try again:

I think it’s an interesting topic too, to a degree. On the yankees board it might be topic numero uno.

I fucking hate the yankees, and am thrilled that their big spending ways have not translated to world series wins lately, and thus would prefer to not discuss them on this board.

Exactly. I hate the Yankees too. TBH, I hate baseball in general. I see the Nationals discussed all the time here. It seemed appropriate. I am more interested in the NFL rules for this upcoming season.

every single post on this board can be implied or made political you're riding a very thin line if you wanna moderate that way

I'd say go find another forum if you can't abide by the rules. If you are military this is something you are trained to do. This just goes on and and on when you have both been asked to stop.

As far as Russell Wilson goes I have no clue what his politics are and do not care. I labeled him as too short to play in the league. Good for him. He is the best QB out of the 2012 draft class.

What rules? I have shown what the word political means. This was by definition not political. In the military, we do not simply stop if an injustice is being done…contrary to what non-serving members like to think. We are not mindless drones of a master.
