because you remember antonio brown is out here with the fake vaxx card, and i'd imagine people feel aght, you can still get covid, but the people who are vaccinated will likely not get hospitalized and it's not as severe. so should we trust these numbers? i want you to say more about letting an unvaccinated player play. >> well, one, you should not trust these numbers. i don't believe -- i think the league as well as the players are in cahoots. i think there are some players who are unvaccinated, our guy antonio, i think the teams aware of it. here's what i will say about kyrie. i've heard behind the scenes that kyrie is actually vaccinated. that is not a fact. my point is it may be more for him about the mandate and not necessarily being vaccinated. and i can't talk to his health status, one, i'm not a doctor, and two, quite frankly, no one really knows what he decided to do. i have to believe there are some safety protocols to bring him back. i know their philosophy is players are playing. at the end of the day, you know what they're telling us much like the world tells us, it's abo
