@@LestAnyManBoast he didn’t take it easy. I know exactly what he did because I was raised by a man exactly like Stephen A. And, when I became a man, I do my father exactly what Jay did here. There is no point. Jay called him out by using his own words against. Straight factual quotes that can’t be disputed. Stephen A knew this, and started addressing everything else. Notice Stephen A’s very first point. He says he sounds passionate NOW because he is sitting across from Jay will. Then, goes on a rant about Kyrie bringing teammates to the team. At this very point, Jay Will KNEW there is no point debating/arguing with a person who talk a lot, talks loud, and uses body language as a form of dismissing the other person after talking loud and saying nothing. In my early manhood, when I would challenge my father, I got caught up in you’re not alpha male, and matched his energy. It occurred to me in my late 20’s, to let him talk all he wants, listen, ask him if he is done, then simply say, “you said a lot, but my direct question doesn’t involve anything you said. My direct question is……? If you can’t answer that in one sentence, then there is nothing to discuss, and you can consider yourself correct”. He won’t even debate with me anymore because I just shut it down by saying y” listen, you’re going to say this, follow it up by saying no one knows anything, while bugging your eyes out as if that’s intimidating, then try to interrupt when someone is explaining something to you. It’s your M.O. for the past 30 years. That’s old news”. He gets pissed to the highest of pisstivity haha

He seems willing to blow a few $100M over a vaccine, when there are already about 20 vaccines running thru his veins. There are dudes on death row right now for 100% less than what Kyrie is risking.. there are dudes that will kill you for $5K bro, its a silly move.. With that being said, SAS likes to tap dance, more than Kanye, for the money.. AR is probably worse than Kyrie because he lied and idk how many people knew he was lying, but he put people at risk. He's a business, If I work for AR, I would have jumped ship long ago had he just said, "I'm just going to catch it and see what happens.. " Give me a chance to find other employment while you play with your life.. smh

Rodgers lied Kyrie didn't that's the difference. when you say you have been immunized that means you're vaccinated.

[@misters4022]

If i had to guess it can also sound like saying you immunized also means *you have the antibodies based off having the virus previously*. Idk how the nfl rules in particularly to that but there are alot of places that will accept a doctors note saying ive had the virus before and i now have the antibodies

[@sarasata]

Active immunity can be acquired through natural immunity or vaccine-induced immunity, so the possibility exists that he was naturally immunized.

Of course its different 🙄. SA said Rodgers lying about it was worst than Kyrie not wanting to take the vaccine. But it's not entirely about the vaccine when it comes to kyrie. Kyrie always has a reason not to play.
