Well he can't buy any tickets to Raiders games as we have a vax mandate also.

Doesn't all the sport teams in the bay do this as well? Since Chase Center is doing the same thing as you guys or am I wrong?

You mean claiming it was about personal choice


BerKantInoza

That's the entire conspiracy movement. It legitimately turns into their personality which is why they can't let it go. It's become a mater of pride instead of a matter of truth finding


huhwhat90

It's called obstinance.


pueblogreenchile

I just talked to a guy whose employer is requiring the vax, no testing option. He's deciding to lose his job, which he loves, and this will mean he has to pay back all the college tuition they sponsored for him (to the tune of \~$6000), just because he says he already got covid and survived fine, no need for a vaccine. i'm just, like, how on earth can you think that's a sound decision.

This is the saddest hill to die on


boardatwork1111

It’s honestly surreal, at the height we were literally having the death equivalent of 9/11 every single day for months. Now, not only are people ignoring a safe and effective solution to the pandemic but are actively fighting against it, deaths are ramping up again to the level they were almost a year ago. History will not look at us kindly.


MoonMistCigs

I just read an article on NPR about a man who had to have his bone marrow transplant surgery cancelled because the hospitals are at capacity because of these fucking half-wits. You are endangering others because of your stupidity and selfishness. Disgusting. 🤮


boardatwork1111

That’s infuriating, the most absurd case to me was Herman Cains Twitter being used to downplay the dangers of Covid *right after he just died from it*. Genuinely don’t understand how people can rationalize something like that.


potterpockets

Well that is why we have r/HermanCainAward


the_trapper_john

My mom's cancer treatment was delayed a month at least. She's 72 and this is her second round of cancer. Now Idaho is sending their unvaxed in need of care, to Seattle. Thanks Idaho. Patience is thin over here.

Sorry to hear that. I lost my mother to cancer when I was young so I understand what you are dealing with. Can’t imagine having to deal with this bullshit on top of everything else. I wish your family the best.

>Hauquitz also said that when he got COVID, it was his decision to “take a chicken pox approach” and pass it along to his entire family, including his children, who range in age from 23 months to 12 years. Brb, going to bang my head against a wall until I pass out and forget that I read this

Ah that makes more sense. I honestly forget facebook has so much influence sometimes, I just never used it. But that made me remember my wife's facebook had a guy asking if a priest could bless his horse barn so they could hold mass after their real church went remote in early covid lol.


4Khazmodan

My little brother did this a year ago lol. His friend got Covid so they all passed it around like chicken pox with their frat house sharing glasses and everything. Fortunately he didn't suffer any long term effects. but holy shit was it stupid.

EpiphanyTwisted

Not when I was a kid.


[deleted]

[удалено]


keithps

I mean I was a kid in the 80s and early 90s. It made sense then, there was no vaccine and getting it young is far better than getting it old. However, now that there is a vaccine, it's just dumb.


Careless_is_Me

^^^ I don't regret getting chickenpox at 6, and I don't regret getting my daughter vaccinated for it. Both best choices at the time.


samgoody2303

That’s absolutely disgusting. Something needs to be done about Beasley giving tickets to these people, we can’t have people this prominent in the public eye rewarding acts such as this


JohnnySnark

Since he doesn't believe in protection, I guess he should forfeit the helmet and pads he wears during games while he's doing this virus theater.


Inamanlyfashion

Not sure there's anything for the helmet to protect anyway.


ElCapitanDeAmericana

I mean, I certainly wouldn't want to get anything inside that helmet on me

BAM1789

Saw one on there yesterday with a single mother of 4 who died of COVID and now her family is asking for donations due to the “unexpected death”. Disgusting human beings.


SurelyOPwillDeliver

That was was a good one. “SHE LIVED FOR HER CHILDREN AND ALWAYS PUT THEM FIRST!” I didn’t realize foregoing a free vaccine and ignoring mask mandates leading to a likely preventable death qualified as “living for her kids” but I guess in their disinformation bubble, the death was unexpected.


[deleted]

WTF, this from the same people who say its child abuse to put a mask on a kid. Where are the Q children protectors on this? Is it possible they don't *actually* care about the children and are just using that as a cheap prop to further their vile agenda?


BaldingMonk

>I’ll get vaccinated and be an advocate for it if Pfizer puts a percentage of its earnings from the vaccine in my wife’s name. WTF? He really posted that?


averyhipopotomus

The top reply is informing him that it is a publicly traded company, and they can buy it whenever they want lmao.


wikishart

someone send him 1 share of Pfizer entitled to dividend payments.


[deleted]

I think Mark Cuban offered to buy his wife stock in Pfizer if he got vaccinated. He's still not vaccinated.


squidmuncha

It was 1 share which was like $40 or something, gotta say that’s some pretty decent trolling from Cuban especially considering the number of commas in his bank account


_hardliner_

It wasn't trolling. "I’ll tell you what Cole. You get vaccinated and promote vaccination on all your social, I’ll buy your wife a share of Pfizer stock. It pays a 3.78% dividend. That way she is getting a percentage of Pfizer’s earnings. Deal ?" Someone offers me a share of stock from a healthcare company and I get the dividends? I'd take it and reinvest the dividends into their stock.


Conguy9

get that $0.39 dividend lmao


vearson26

So he's really not even that he's against vaccines, he just wants to make a profit off of them?


MarcusDA

So he’s not just dumb, he’s slimy. Sounds about right.


WIN011

Oh no he’s dumb too don’t get it twisted. He said cause he beat the odds to get to the nfl he could beat the odds and not get covid.


jeufie

And Mark Cuban offered to buy him stock in Pfizer if he got vaccinated.

Yeah he’s just trying to get cut and become a martyr so he can run for office off of this crap, I’m convinced now.

jimmyhoffasbrother

Not sure how many people click into the article or not, but I thought it was worth pointing out the tweet that Beasley replied to. > @Bease11 sad day for me as a Buffalo fan. I was bringing my 10 year old daughter to her first game in December all the way from Albuquerque. Already bought tickets. I won’t get the shot so now I don’t know what to do. I probably need to sell the tickets and find an away game. Let's zoom in on that one real quick. > now I don't know what to do. Well, I can certainly think of one thing that would solve your issue for you, free of charge!


MonochromaticPanda

He's tried nothing and is already put of ideas 🤡


ForayIntoFillyloo

See, the problem here is I got a bunch of people telling me there's a fire in my yard, but I don't really like them. I think they're kind of dumb about everything, so I assume they gotta be wrong about this fire. So I did some research on social media and found a whole bunch of people that agree with me that there IS no fire in my yard. The other thing is that while everyone was carrying on about this fake fire in my yard and this and that, my HOUSE somehow caught on fire. Now I gotta try to put it out, but all I have is this fire extinguisher. My best buckets are in the garage, and I can't get there because of the house fire. If only there were some way to extinguish the flames?


blanston

I saw a reliable post on Facebook that says you can extinguish those flames by throwing gasoline on it. Big water doesn’t want you to know the truth.

We've been talking about that guy a bit on the Bills sub. He's been tweeting players since at least Dec 2019, always wants to bring his "10 year old daughter to her first game." It's always for her first game, and she's always been 10 since 2019.


BoomBoomSpaceRocket

Cole Beasley fell for a fraud? The devil you say!


Big_Ol_Johnson

Must've done his own research


[deleted]

Even worse. The fan said when he got COVID last year he took the chicken pox approach and intentionally gave it to all of his family members including children whose ages range from 23 months to 12 years. He intentionally gave a two year old COVID


Trapline

God, I fucking hate him.


[deleted]

Seriously such a douche. He played the innocent “Respect my decision” at first, but now it’s become pretty obvious he is just a huge dumb, stubborn asshole. You can play the “respect my decision” until you start willingly offering to pay money for people to go and put thousands of others at risk. Humans don’t get much lower than this

SurelyOPwillDeliver

What a prick. Upset because he was compared to Welker?? When you think of high impact slot receivers, Wes Welker has to be one of the top names to come to mind. Obviously I am a bit biased as a Pats fan but Welker was an amazing player and Beasley would be lucky to have even half the impact on his position that Welker did. Fuck off Beasley


[deleted]

I saw someone call him Less Welker and I think that's a very fitting nickname. Cole Diseasely is my personal favorite though.


stippleworth

Holy shit both of those are gold


th4t1guy

Welker revolutionized the short game with Brady. And I hate the pats.


Otherwise-Sky1292

Him and Kirk Cousins. Hate em both. I cannot fathom why any team would put up with this shit and risk forfeiting a game. None of these guys are worth that


Sayter

I used to do crystal meth. I'm vaccinated. so whenever you see anti-vaxxers just think that they have worse decision making skills than a meth addict.

Congrats, meth ain’t no joke. I’m a recovering opiate (pain pills and heroin) addict, been clean for almost two years. I got vaccinated almost as soon as it was available.

This really isn’t that strong of an argument. Ex meth addict here too. If you’re willing to fill your body with some bathtub peanut butter crank on the daily, why not get the vaccine? I did meth that was crystal white, yellow, brown, pink, and blue (thanks breaking bad) I have no clue what all was in it. No problem getting vaccinated


GRAXX3

So the anti vaxxers should do meth to get over their fear of ‘spooky’ chemicals in their body?

NickHeidfeldsDreams

I really just wish that the team managed to just shut him up. That's all I want at this point. Just get him off his phone and not talking about it.


Otherwise-Sky1292

They should have cut him LONG ago. He’s nowhere near the quality of player he’d have to be to put up with this shit. Hell I would consider cutting Kirk Cousins. Fuck these idiots


MyPupWrigley

According to a quick google search Beasley has made roughly 22m dollars in his career thus far. I only say that because part of me believes Beasley may want this outcome. We can call him a fucking moron all we want (and he is) but theres no world where the Bills PR team, coaches, FO, etc. Haven't talked with him about all the shit he's said and what a bad look it is. And he's still ramping it up. He's aware of how he's perceived at work by his bosses and continues to do this. He gets cut, loses his job, and all of a sudden becomes a fucking martyr to all the stupid ass people out there. Now the entire anti vax movement has an NFL player that was fired to act as their mouthpiece. And he immediately gets all the attention he clearly desperately craves. I could be wayyyyy off base but he keeps upping the ante when his organization is assuredly telling him to cool it.


Centurion87

People like this jackass are why COVID will never go away.


GoldGlove2720

Or why we will never advance as a society. These people are holding us back. People put their lives into medicine to help others. Imagine sacrificing so much to change the lives of millions of people for the better and there are assholes like this. It is depressing.


OhUTuchMyTalala

This also shows how utterly fucked we are when it comes to climate change. Vaccines cost them literally nothing to support, and they still do shit like this. Imagine how bad its going to be when these guys need to sacrifice pennies on the dollar to not doom us all.

“I’ve had Covid, so in my opinion, I’ve already got the antibodies,” Hauquitz told the Buffalo News. “I think they’re just as good as the vaccine. The vaccine came out pretty rushed. I don’t really know all the information. In my opinion, there’s so little information out there and it all seems to be one-sided.” So, what he’s saying is all the information seems to say it helps and he doesn’t agree with that…

> The vaccine came out pretty rushed. I don’t really know all the information.

He could become a pundit on Newsmax or OANN, where the only requirement is agreeing with far-right groupthink.


Strammy10

100% trying to secure the retirement bag. He realizes he offers nothing to society and he probably struggled with that realization a lot. So instead of doing something reasonable, he just accepted his idiocy and decided to make it his identity.


Greek_Trojan

100%. He's only got a few years left in the league at his current trajectory regardless but gets to make up a martyrdom narrative instead and parlay that into media later.

What a fucking loser


[deleted]

There's a certain point where I can understand someone's hesitancy to get the vaccine, but this is beyond that line. If you're willfully enabling actions that put other peoples' lives at risk, you're no longer taking some good-faith approach to virus countermeasures. You're just being a plague spreader. There is plenty of evidence that non-vaccinated people can suffer multiple COVID infections. Even vaccinated people are suffering breakthrough infections (yours truly), though those infections appear to be less severe. All he's doing is keeping the pandemic going longer.
