Just awful people. Quick to trust doctors for Da sniffles but need to do their own "research" for a vaccine.

Honestly I’ve actually found out how little people actually go to the doctors. Like I get a flu shot and physical every year but I’ll talk to anti vaxxers who don’t step foot in a hospital or doctors office

I guess when your still young you think you are invincible

One thing is for sure — at least for now. While an Irving trade for Ben Simmons with Philadelphia is seen by some as an easy solution to both teams’ problems, sources with knowledge of the 76ers’ view said there is no interest in Irving at the moment. From management on down, it seems there is an unsurprising level of skepticism about that pairing working out any better than the Joel Embiid-Simmons duo that is zombified at the moment.

And in the absence of Irving getting an extension from the Nets — which is obviously not happening now — the other tricky part here is that he can opt out of his deal after this season. That’s obviously a major factor for any interested team.

Now to be clear, Simmons’ camp has not scratched Brooklyn off its list of potential get-out-of-Philadelphia scenarios. They still see it as a possibility — however remote. As we chronicled in a recent roundtable, it’s still widely believed that Sixers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey is holding out for either Portland’s Damian Lillard or Washington’s Bradley Beal (I would posit, by the way, that Lillard is all by himself when it comes to the Sixers’ dream targets).

SAS slander won't be tolerated. on my watch. Gotta stop. Man provided so many lulz in the past and turned that into securing one of the biggest (if not the biggest, I believe) bags in ESPN history as a black man. He gets a pass for his shenanigans in my book. Dude is working from home, traveling to the biggest games, appearing on General Hospital and generally living his best life. I gotta let hit him cook and just be happy for him at this point.

We need to focus on Perk stopping this "Carry On" business, though. Although I used it in a text to a shorty last weekend, who wont be named, because I was kind of turnt and it was effective in rustling jimmies and getting my point across.

He can’t subscribe to multiple beliefs?

You can be an Indigenous and Muslim at the same time.

I only said that because the meme Kyrie posted has them on opposite and conflicting sides.

 

[Based Jesus]

This man released $700 and $900 shoes to undermine his own son

 

[noblekane]

Part of me has intense disdain for anti vaxx because thanks to them my mom died alone in a hospital room because these idiots make it impossible for hospitals to allow visitors like they once did.

my condolences to the fam brother

 

[noblekane]

I'm seeing a therapist and my NT fam have been amazing. Just hard fam. Not going to lie to you.

we love you fam.

People in this country such low intelligence they'll believe anything. Hurting yourself and taking hits to your personal finance doesn't make you right lmaooo. He's arguing science. That's like saying he doesn't believe in gravity and the laws of physics. He already said the planet is flat. Man's is sick.

Kyrie was doing his best impression of me after winning that 2016 ring and while I admire his adulation for me and my lifestyle, I can no longer respect his actions and decisions.

Multiple sources with direct knowledge of Irving’s decision have told The Athletic that Irving is not anti-vaccine and that his stance is that he is upset that people are losing their jobs due to vaccine mandates. It’s a stance that Irving has explained to close teammates. To him, this is about a grander fight than the one on the court and Irving is challenging a perceived control of society and people’s livelihood, according to sources with knowledge of Irving’s mindset. It is a decision that he believes he is capable to make given his current life dynamics. “Kyrie wants to be a voice for the voiceless,” one source said.
