AB ABing?

Post by rooneytunes » Fri Nov 19, 2021 12:38 pm

Being accused of using a fake vaccination card.

Could be bad if it's true.

If not true then he needs to sue the dude who threw it out there.

As I understand it, the report came from his personal chef who, surprise surprise, AB owes 10K in back pay. There is a tweet by the Bucs who said they submitted the Vax cards to the NFL and there is no problem.

Could he have bought a real card and filled it in? Sure. The FBI busted some Pharmacist at a CVS who was trying to sell the cards. so i am sure he is not the only one.
Could he have gone in to get his shot, paid the Doctor or Nurse to not do it and then put the info on the card? Sure and we would never know.
Could Florida check his Vax status? What world are you living in? Do you think he is in Indiana where you could just check the public website for your vaccination status and have a link to a State issued certificate to verify?
Could he have just gotten his vaccine and this is a disgruntled employee( hopefully former) who is causing trouble? Sure.

Most likely, he probably got the vaccine, but still couldn't pass up a great deal on fake covid cards

At this point, anyone who chooses to accept employment from Antonio Brown pretty much deserves what they get. There's a line of these issues a mile long. How can this guy stiff a person for $10,000? He should have that in his couch cushions.

He wouldn't even need to go to that length. It's unbelievably easy to forge a vax card - just google search a template; print it off on high quality paper; and copy the lot info from someone who posted their selfie on facebook. Voila.

Didn't some news station do an investigative report on how easy it was to get into a Yankees game with a fake card?

The $8 for the fake vax card is probably included in the $10k he owes the chef.

So what's better, super talented guys like Brown and Martavis that have very limited intelligence or Tik Tock junkies like Juju and Claypool? Seems they all could use some maturity. Imagine all 4 of those guys on the field right now just trying to win football games. Even Rudolph might have enough arm strength and talent to put up huge numbers.
Howard Griffith had to resort to chop-blocking him during the 1997 AFC Championship Game. An incredulous Kirkland asked Griffith, “Why do you have to use cheap tactics like chop-blocking?” Griffith replied “Why do you have to be a 300-pound linebacker?”

I don't know. I think I'd roll the dice on trying to figure out how to keep Brown and Martavis out of trouble (assuming starting over again, not at this point). That could have been one the best duos in history. Certainly two of the most talented guys to ever play together.

Check out Bryant’s highlight real below; Christ you can put this up against the greatest receivers in history and you’d come away thinking he was in the hall of fame too.

Jesus can he high point a ball. It just shows what Ben is missing from his receivers. Bryant can be running full throttle and then Ben overthrows and he has another gear to make up the difference….or Ben can throw it to the left or right and he can not only get it, but high point it. He was fucking amazing!

Our receivers only make catches when it is in their catch radius at their usual speed.

Bryant and AB made nearly every catch at Ben’s ball’s speed.

When I told my wife about AB she disclosed that she has a whole stack of vaccination cards for registering seniors. She just asked the pharmacy for some and they gave her a whole bunch.

A person would just need to fill in a valid batch number, pharmacy name and date to pass a quick inspection. Probably depends on where you live but its my understanding there are enough issues with the reporting system here in CA that if would be difficult to prove you didn't get vaccinated if you have a fake card.

Think the wide receivers coach at the time raved about Bryant's ability to arch backwards naturally to make a catch. Watched his highlights not long ago and in his short prime he was damn good.

“Here’s my vaxinational card”

“Uhhh, that’s a Denny’s menu”

“It say vacinational right there”

“That says ‘Vegatable Soup’”

“Mmm, that sounds good, I’ll have that”

“That’s not….what?!?”

i almost wish i hadnt watched that. we have no one close to that size/speed/ball skill combo rn. man what a waste of offense those yrs were. we have a coach that cannot win with offense. wont just outscore opponents in a shootout. we had the offense to beat anyone but we always turned it over to an injured or below the line defense to grind it out attrition style. if we had a better or even healthy defense back then to carry our leads after the coach took the air out...what couldve been. smh.

I got vaccinated cuz I thought it was the next step to take during the pandemic. At the same time I don't think anyone should be forced to inject something into their body or lose employment.

Vaxxing everyone may be kind of pointless now that we know there are multiple animal reservoirs (running RAMPANT in the US deer population) and many poorer countries have vax rates in the single digits. The latter is why WHO didn't want scarce supplies going to booster shots in rich countries when billions of people haven't had even one shot.

Point being, the main argument for mandates was to take away opportunities for the virus to mutate. That's now clearly an unachievable goal.

I also think with each additional booster shot needed that compliance is going to wane. About 40% of US adults get the flu shot annually, and I expect that's roughly where an annual or semi-annual covid shot will land.

Wonder what the vaccination rate would be, if instead of CV19 causing death at the rate it does, it caused one of the side effects below at the same rate:

1.) permanent paralysis of the legs.
2.) permanent blindness.
3.) permanent sterility.
4.) permanent deafness.
5.) permanent facial disfigurement.

I suspect that if one of the 5 side effects above occurred in place of the death rate, vaccination rates would be in the 95% range right now.

If you got CV19 and 1% got the elephant man’s face, a fate not worse than death, things would be quite different I suspect…could be wrong.

I don't think your average person is very good at wrapping their head around small probabilities.

Also, it's kind of like everyone believing they are above average drivers. If it were estimated that 10% of people are immune, like 70% of people would believe they are immune.

Plus, a bunch of the unvaccinated also are 100% confident that hella-bad cold they had was Covid, even though they never had a test to confirm it. Actually, my barber is one of those people - early 50's, pretty good shape and just got out of the hospital with pneumonia from Covid. He's hardly a right-winger, either.

I wonder why Biden doesn’t wear his indoors at establishments that require it when he doesn’t think a pic is going to be taken.

All these “we must mask” have all been caught without them. Multiple times.

And these are the people with the greatest access to information.

Maybe they realize (like many) that those lil mask not designed to stop viruses won’t, well, stop a virus and are but a waste of time.
