    Well you cant deny that hes a practicing doctor who was, in his heart, looking out for the best interests of his patients. 

    My Dad died of cancer last year. I did not enjoy not being able to see him until he was in palliative.  I hear you.

    To me it is concerning that people are so fired up, to the point of taking personal shots, and attacking other people for even trying to have a respectful conversation.

    Everybody is smarter than their neighbour. Including myself

    If you think this topic is not worth debating then you are just as bad as people who won't get vaccinated.

    Do you care about being "right" and simply shaming and calling other people out.  Or do you actually care about societal impact like you claim and do what you can to convince people to being vaccinated.

    Shutting them out, calling them names, and similar tactics will only force them to dig into their beliefs deeper.

    This 100%

    This. You either understand proven science or you're an uninformed idiot.

    Then why mention it? It's a nonsensical false equivalency.

    I think you need to re look at what we were talking about and look at the point I was making

    You're the one who suggested SpeedFlex is on the pro-Vax 'side' and referred to it as "your" (his) side. You could have said 'our' side but didn't, so if you aren't on HIS side (our side) then what side are you on?

    So I used “your side” as in a general statement. Not related to vax. Which is why I was confused when he asked people don’t agree with my side. I’m for the vaccine. I think people should get it. I think not getting it is the wrong choice. I also think that sitting there and talking down on someone bcuz they didn’t make the same choice as me is dumb.

    It's unethical to knowingly put other people at risk because of your decisions. It's called responsibility. 

    Have you ever sped? Puts others at risk. Look he can’t play bcuz of his decision and I’m sure he knows that. He can make a choice that he sees fit, you can disagree with it, and if he understand the consequences, why does anyone here get to talk down on him? Not getting vaxxed is not illegal. And at the end of the day, his personal responsibility is to himself and no one else

    If someone's decision is best for them and nobody else, the decision is selfish. Not by opinion, by definition. We get vaxxed to protect ourselves and others. Not getting vaxxed, at absolute best, only protects you (from what exactly changes depending on the person... ranges from "duuuhhhhh I don't want my DNA modified" to "microchips" to "fetal tissue" and on and on).

    In Eli's case, the team suffers for his decision. He's the only one that benefits(???) from his choice... so by definition, it's selfish.

    Every choice we make for ourselves is selfish. Every one here is selfish. But once again, he knew the choice. I’m sure the team knew. I find it funny how we get on our moral high horses when we do something and someone doesn’t.

    Is that what you think? That we just brainlessly follow orders blindly like zombies when it comes to the Covid vaccine? To me, it's commom sense. Why would I expose myself to a virus that will make me sick or even kill me at age 66?? Why did you get it? Seems like you fell into step to get the vaccine. Know what? I'm getting a booster on Friday. Like I said, players that don't get vaxxed next year won't play period. 

    Still haven’t told me what my side is. I know you want it to be the anti vax side. I think you misunderstood the original point of my first reply to you. If you want someone to get the the vax, talking down on someone isn’t gonna change their mind. Acting like you are morally superior doesn’t change minds

    Arbitrary as in travellers just like us who can't travel without proof of vaccination? Eli IS selfish. Hope he enjoys the game on tv. Players like ELi will have trouble playing in the CFL. As Stamps GM John Hufnagel said last week, he has no interest signing any player who can only play home games. 

    Explain how he is selfish? He understood the choice. Maybe he didn’t feel comfortable taking the vaccine? Not saying he is right or wrong on that choice. But this whole idea of talking down on people because they didn’t make the same choice as you is not going to win people over to your side.

    I just don't get why we let unvaccinated players play when they can't travel. Good thing we have Gray ready to go. He can play guard or tackle. Hope he enjoys watching the game on television & not getting paid if we win. To me, it's just toal selfishness & not a team player.

    Probably bcuz they have to get tested? But kinda silly to say you can play these games but not this one. No consistency
