Cant wait for the days where we are going to have to prove we are vaccinated to attend sporting events. How fun.

Were you there when they did the full store remodel? I worked there for 2 weeks relining Hardware

"$80 or $100 for a seat, or spend $11 on a beer". You obviously have not been to a Toronto Maple Leaf Game. How about $500 for a pair of tickets in the upper bowl, and $20 a beer and $12 for a Hot Dog. But the answer is yes, people will pay it... just not this person any longer.

You guys need the Buzztron to settle your math riddle.

Haha classic.

How about just spraying some Deep Woods Off?

Ha ha Coyotes and Panthers will never fill their seats with their own fans. Even with hundred vaccines and free beer.

For free beer at games I’d move to either city. Hell I should move there anyway just to get out of St. Louis

Aaa

Kooleus.....So the First Amendment does not apply if you do not agree with it? Right. If players wearing BLM t-shirts offends you to the point that you won't go to games anymore or become disinterested in general, then you were never much of a fan in the first place.

You forgot to put INC. after BLM

The one Wild Card here is the State and Local Health Authorities. They are nixing plans to allow fans for the 49ers, the Raiders, and now SF has nixed the Warriors plans to allow fans in who have passed a Rapid Test. I suspect that we will have a limited number of fans allowed in limited number of arenas, beginning in Feb 2021 at the earliest.
I too am totally turned off by the BLM/SJW mania that is sweeping North America. Colin Kaepernick is now calling for the release of Cop Killers, and he has supported organizations named for them as well. I have zero sympathy for anyone who associates with him. What has been missing in the medias very biased messaging is what your Mom told you: There are 2 sides to every story. BLM and the media want to make you think that cops are racist and violent killers of innocent people of color. What they leave out is the following: For the past 20 years, according to the FBI UCI Stats, 160 Police Officers have been assaulted every day or one every 9 minutes; 47 Police Officers are injured or killed every day of those 20 years or 1 in every 30 minutes. Police officers are shot every 3hours 43 minutes, stabbed every 8 hours, injured or killed with what the FBI describes as "dangerous weapons" every 75 minutes and then the rest are hands and feet. Think unarmed men aren't a threat? They kill more people every year than those killed by all rifles and shotguns combined. They kill more in any 2 consecutive years than all of the victims of mass assault rifle killings since 1966.
A suspect is killed in less than 2% of the cases an officer is assaulted and in less than 6% of the cases one is injured or killed. For every Black man shot, 61 police officers are injured or killed. Which is the bigger threat to society? Every City that wants to Defund the Police is seeing gigantic leaps in violent crimes and law abiding citizens are not safe. California has basically legalized theft with the passage of Prop 47 and SF has just seen its 3rd Walgreens close due to the rampant looting that takes place. They are not the only ones by a longshot..although I do kinda smile when the looters hit the medical marijuana stores...
So, will I go to games? Yes...but not to support BLM/SJW but because hockey is the best spectator sport on earth...

I hope you realize that you nailed it with that quote !!!

You no nothing about me. I also never said anything about players wearing a BLM shirt. Go ahead. Wear them. And if the next players wants to wear a MAGA t-shirt that's cool too. And if another guy has a blue flag to support law enforcement that's cool too. So is a rainbow wig. Go ahead guys. But don't take a microphone and preach to me. There is one anthem. Stand for it. If players don't like it, start your own league.
- Kooleus

Well said👍👍👍

I agree. It's all about the money for the league and that shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. They just want to keep the fans happy without pi$$ing off the players (and vice versa.)

With respect to the anthem, I have never understood why it's played during sports (excluding international competition.).

Don't want players kneeling? Don't play any anthems.

Why some people need the anthem played during sports says as much about them than it does about the players who kneel for it.

Don’t like the anthems ? Stay outside until it’s over. Your problem is solved.

i don't think you have only one.

But it’s not true.

You have 11.5M infected to date. 250,000 of those people have died of the virus.

You guys are arguing that a maximum of 70,000 could die out of 350M. Yet you have already far surpassed that number with only 11.5M infections. What are you guys talking about? Unless you think the CDC are not accurately counting deaths... Then you are correct, I can’t argue with Trumpism.
- bloatedmosquito

It was a poster named rrentz who threw out the 99.98% survival rate figure, not me nor any of the rest of us. His exact quote a couple of pages ago: "Covid survival rate, as per CDC is 99.98 for majority of population and 94.6 for those with underlying conditions and older then 69 yrs."

My comments were simply to correct your incorrect perception of percentages and fractions. What exactly is 99.98% of 350m? It's 70,000 not 7,000,000 as you've stated multiple times. Simple arithmetic.

But you already know that by now so you are changing the dialogue to cover yourself. Do yourself a favor and avoid rewriting what I wrote. That's lame.

Moving on, the misuse of simple math (on purpose by some I imagine) is probably what's used by politicians, bureaucrats, political partisans, political hacks, the news media, etc., no matter the political stance.

No wonder the world has problems.

Pretty soon it will be just the 5-10 minions in the Nucks thread and they can all pat each other on the back about 'covid', climate change and Benning...

Maybe said elsewhere in here but the real question is will you be allowed to attend if you don't have a "vaccine card" or whatever the plan to use to identify the believers from the non-believers...

Looks like trump killed this thread too.

Actually the kneeling really isn't the issue it's using your place of employment to push agendas. Which is chicken-sh!t.

He's a sad and pathetic excuse for a human, let alone a leader. Its in the family name. God forbid he had Trump's power.

I think you fail to understand what it means to be an American. This country was built on saying (frank) you. Our country was designed to challenge its rules and laws as times change and evolve without having to hide our opinions because it annoys other people. It was built on protest for all to see.

If you don't like seeing athletes decide to protest by sitting or kneeling, then go watch another league.

Don't worry...Pedo Epstein friend Donald, will have his day...

And you can disagree. Kinda like having a support the troops license plate but being unwilling to take any measures to help the society you live in. It's your right to be a piece of sh!t too.
