  1. The fear of the new variant is partly responsible but there's a plethora of more reasons people on the fence are finally getting the vaccine. The most plausible being the proof is in the pudding with these vaccines as they continue to show their efficacy in fighting off these new variants. People see the news and know that nearly all the hospitalizations and deaths are among those not vaccinated. The vaccines have been out long enough for some to feel slightly more secure their pry won't be any long term side effects. Add to that the threat of more lock downs and mask mandates it's not surprising the vaccine rate has ticked up.
  2. Yeah. Can’t deny it’s effectiveness
  3. About 3.5 times less deaths though than last year thanks to the vaccine roll out. Best vaccination day in over a month yesterday. Something's working.
  4. Titans already preparing for the MNF game.
  5. Old habits die hard. We have that laser TD to him out in Denver on our minds. ARod's comments about him. He looks like a caveman in the Geico commericals.
  6. Too late. It's been suggested on both sides of the aisle before. The complications of verification prevented it as that money needed to go out ASAP to keep the economy afloat. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/12/03/1500-stimulus-checks-for-covid-19-shots-how-one-plan-would-work.html https://www.10tv.com/article/news/nation-world/congressman-suggests-third-stimulus-checks-for-vaccine/507-10b4c1d9-5890-4505-a909-995f75738f75
  7. Should've worked at Vanguard. Good news on vaccinations in purple/red states. Vanguard is offering its employees $1,000 to get vaccinated against Covid-19, the company has confirmed. The asset management giant follows Facebook, Google, Microsoft and other employers calling on workers to get the coronavirus vaccine amid growing concerns about the fast spread of the delta variant. “Vanguard recognizes vaccines are the best way to stop the spread of this virus and strongly encourages crew to be vaccinated,” Charles Kurtz, a spokesperson for Vanguard, said in a statement shared with CNBC. “As such, we are offering a vaccine incentive for crew who provide COVID-19 vaccination proof. The incentive recognizes crew who have taken the time to protect themselves, each other, and our communities by being vaccinated.” Kurtz also confirmed the company’s 16,500 eligible employees have until Oct. 1 to get the vaccine, which Bloomberg first reported Wednesday. Walgreens Boots Alliance said Wednesday that the number of vaccines it has administered has surged by more than 30% in the past few weeks in certain states, including Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Kentucky. That number could rise as the Food and Drug Administration gives full approval, versus emergency use authorization, to the vaccines, which it aims to do for the Pfizer vaccine next month. Still, businesses like Vanguard are encouraging employees not to wait. The more evidence of its effectiveness mounts up and with these mRNA vaccines (Pfizer, Moderna) you'll likely see FDA approval by Labor Day. You're going to see more vaccine mandates from private employers as this variants shifts to other parts of the country.
  8. NFL 1.) Jaguars will win the AFC South 2.) Chiefs go 17-0 but lose Divisional round game to Baltimore. 3.) Miami goes 5-12. 4.) Steelers make playoffs and Browns just miss. Bills 1.) We go 12-5 and host Baltimore in AFC Championship game. 2.) Jerry Hughes has a double digit sack season. 3.) Josh Allen finishes 2nd in MVP race behind Mahomes. 4.) Tre'Davious White with double digit interceptions.
  9. You know Belichick's coaching until he's 80 because that's what's being said of him right now.
  10. Is the guy behind him the actor who played Rudy's older brother?
  11. Get him to the NFC. Don't care who it is.
  12. CB depth please. If White goes down we're screwed. See Tennessee game last year.
  13. I feel like I'm wasting my time. Neither article proves in any way he cooked the books like Cuomo did. Just incompetence.
  14. People who have not received the vaccine.
  15. I can't access the link because of a firewall. I admire your dedication to Florida though.
  16. Scandalous. Almost like one would operate if they didn't want to create a panic as for some reason the media doesn't seem to focus on hospitalizations and deaths anymore. If your idea of downplaying Cuomo's allegations is to play whataboutism with other governors you're going to have to do better than that.
  17. Where's the proof? I ask election deniers this and I never get any credible evidence. Here's Florida's Covid numbers from the weekend. https://www.fox13news.com/news/nearly-51000-new-covid-19-cases-reported-in-florida-over-3-day-period The state of Florida reported 50,997 new COVID-19 cases July 31-August 2 -- with 16,998 Saturday, 16,998 Sunday, 17,001 cases Monday -- according to data posted Tuesday by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The state was responsible for about 21% of the newly reported cases nationwide during that span. Florida also reported 100 COVID-19 deaths during the three days, making the state responsible for about 11% of the 906 deaths reported nationwide. In all, 39,179 Florida residents have died from COVID-19 since the pandemic started in early 2020. The state has had more than 2.64 million confirmed cases.
  18. How do you feel about the story of him covering up the true nursery home Covid deaths as reported last February where an aide said the data would be "used against us?" Never mind the incompetence of mandating nursing home accept Covid patients at the beginning of the pandemic. We can and should do better than this guy.
  19. Neither side has any moral superiority. They got Al Franken to resign doing far less and Democratic primary voters lean female. Biden asking him to resign isn't surprising
  20. Live shot of Cuomo in the governor's mansion.
  21. Over 90% NFL players vaccinated. Don't think this is getting unnoticed by corporate America who could make life miserable for their unvacinnated employees without directly requiring the vaccine.
  22. I doubt a powerful and narcissistic bully with a well known family name who grew up in NYC with a past history of sexual harassment allegations against him would ever become president.
