Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving will reportedly miss every Nets home game in New York “for the foreseeable future” since he still has not taken any of the various coronavirus vaccines.
New York City’s coronavirus mitigation rules require all pro athletes to be vaccinated before being allowed to enter a city arena or stadium. Still, Irving has continued to stonewall the rule, refusing to get vaccinated or talk much about it to the press.

Nash added that they have to assume that Irving will miss all 41 home games in Brooklyn. He will also miss games against the Knicks, Warriors, Lakers, and Clippers due to coronavirus vaccine requirements in their home arenas. The NBA has also ruled that unvaccinated players will forfeit pay for games missed over vaccine refusal.
So far, Irving is unrepentant over his vaccine status. On Saturday, he jumped to Twitter to say, “I am protected by God, and so are my people. We stand together.”

Still, Nash seemed hopeful that New York could change its coronavirus vaccine requirements before the season it up and Irving will be allowed to return to Barclays Center.
“Anything can change. Who’s to say, the city’s ordinance could change? Anything could change,” Nash said. “I think right now we’re just trying to remain flexible, open-minded and figure it out as we go because information is coming in by the half-day here. Whether it’s Paul (Millsap’s) situation, Kyrie’s situation or the laws. We found out Friday he could come in the building. So, things are shifting, no one’s been through this before and we’re just trying to figure it out as we go.”

Got the wrong Steve. Steve Nash.....
“He who laughs at the myocarditis sportsball chumps, laughs best.”
I am about 70 years old, and have received just about every mandatory vaccination until now.
I can’t remember any other vaccine that I couldn’t claim until it has been in me at least two weeks, as this present set of shots seems to be.
Does anyone else have any experience along these lines?
What?
retarded
Are there two words missing from your statement?
“...I can’t remember any other vaccine that I couldn’t claim
(was effective) until it has been in me at least two weeks..”
flu shot is 38% effective but I never was threatened to lose my job if I didn’t take one
and how does making him not play in NY make any difference? Its retarded **** and I would rather have covid than this retarded tyranny
Some owner could probably assemble a pretty competitive NBA team on the cheap. Assemble your Top-5 starting lineup from the unvaxxed.
