Leaks from a meeting occurred from a recent NFL "thinktank" group of creating a third division for the NFL to include current teams that are < 70% vaccinated and where a majority of fans in that city and the surrounding areas are unvaccinated with the Covid Vaccine. There has been players e.g. Sam Darnold, Kirk Cousins, Cole Beasley, resistant and outspoken against the requirements of having a vaccine that is mandatory let alone experimental gene therapy. These feelings don't stop at the player level, a significant percentage of fans will not be attending games due to the growing push to require vaccinations for all fans attending games during the regular season. At a recent exhibition game in LA, fans began to sing "Take your Shot & Shove it, we ain't coming here no more" during the coin flip.
Several teams being considered for the UFC, the Unvaccinated Football Conference includes, Tampa Bay Bucs, New Orleans Saints, Cleveland Browns, Jacksonville Jaguars, Miami Dolphins, Atlanta Falcons, and oddly the LA Rams and several proposed expansion teams in Alabama and Arkansas.
When questioning the ACLU if this segregation would violate any civil rights and would they get involved, they just said, this decision would not require our participation at any level, since it goes against the views of our corporate sponsors and majority of our monetary donations (e.g. Politicians & Big Pharma).
Whether or not this idea comes to fruition, the NFL will be forced to address the current division experienced in this country of American's resisting Forced Vaccinations, not because it's an American Right, but since it affects their bottom line.
