Sabreality Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Smart man, especially with Beasley still dickin around, availability for even more playing time is a wise move if Beas has to miss time. 6 1 4 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl2526 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 So he waited for six months, walked around unmasked in Bills facilities for 3 weeks, got himself fined, and now he took the plunge "for the greater good." OK. 5 1 7 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigAl2526 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 If he got the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine, he can now be considered fully vaccinated sometime in mid or late October. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The card says Pfizer. If he has already tested positive Covid-19 (which would not be a shock, interacting with thousands of people at his BBQ events and restaurants) he can be considered fully vaccinated in 2 weeks.....in time for the regular season 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK. I would bet it has some to do with the 15k fine, but more to do with the possibility of losing game checks. Some players could lose a million dollars per game. Some a couple hundred thousand.

Process Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 1. This is awesome news and hopefully more will follow his lead 2. He picked a bad day of the week to get it. That means second shot will be the day before a game? I couldn't get out of bed the day after let alone play football. Do they allow flexibility on when you get the second or does it have to be exactly three weeks? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I got my Pfizer vaccine, I was scheduled 4 weeks out after my first dose. I think because the vaccines were still not that plentiful, places were doing that to accommodate more first doses for more people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDingus Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I guess $16k is a lot more to McKenzie than it is Beasley. Guess we'll just have to wait until he's fined a proportional amount of his salary 😆 But hey, good job McKenzie. I don't care the reasoning, I'm just glad you did it. 2 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they allow flexibility on when you get the second or does it have to be exactly three weeks? I had to reschedule my second one by two days, my doctor said it was fine. I felt pretty rough for four hours or so roughly 24 hours after the second shot. I just assumed my new battery was running low while my bloodstream was searching for a 5G signal. All good the next morning. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially after the NFL finds out and suspends you. Flynn: Possessing fake COVID-19 vaccine cards is a felony offense Erie County District Attorney John J. Flynn says anyone who is in possession of a forged vaccine card could be charged with a felony offense. 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't want a WR room with half un-vaxed? They can't have given him a message anything near that direct. I'm sure the latter statement is true, but the message has to be framed very differently. He's been Beasley's little disciple. But the reality is, Beasley has a cap hit of $7.3M and a salary of $4.7M. At 18 weeks, that's $260,000 per game. Beasley got fined basically, 6% of a game check and 0.2% of his cap hit. Lil' Dirty on the other hand, just got fined almost 1/3 of a $55k game check, 27%, and 1.5% of his contract. He's said they could pay him in candy, but at the bottom of the roster and with financial plans for his restaurant and startups plus some family to take care of (a grandmother? or aunt?), he just might have decided "Money Talks, bull#### Walks" to Beasley's schtick. 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably told him, "Get the shot and the slot position is yours after we cut Beasley's prick-less arm!" 🤣 It’s sort of hyperbole, but there’s probably some truth here. McKenzie gives the room some breathing room. McKenzie and Stevenson can probably fill the room OK. If Gabe Davis gets vaxed it makes Beasley a bit more expendable, pushing Sanders to the slot possibly. Not necessarily saying we should, but it’s a good thought exercise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK. He took it, that's the point. 🎉🎉🎉 When someone I've been talking to, slowly and patiently over months, finally hits a tipping point and decides it's in their interest to get vaccinated, I don't say "what took you so long?" I say "That's Great News, I'm so happy to hear that! I'm gonna sleep a bit better tonight!" 7 1 11 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
