His wife posted a huge thing on IG about being approached in stores saying she shouldn't be there and she should be quarantining. She said she felt treated badly by the situation.

These conversations happened BEFORE it was announced that his test was a false positive. In the comments she added that they all happened after they knew the results privately... not sure if that's true.

Lady you are a public(ish) figure who was known to the public to be living with someone with Covid. What did you expect would happen if you went out in public before the announcement of the false positive?

I met them once. They came into my work (an amusement park in 09 shortly after he was drafted) and demanded a free VIP escort around the park. I told them it wasn't free and he kinda accepted that and went outside. She kept arguing with me in a "do you know who I am" proto-Karen way. Finally I got the Park Director to come down and he took them into a private room. Five minutes later they emerged with a tour guide and my boss counting hundred dollar bills.

I mean, I’d feel weird as poo poo about confronting somebody else about their health in public unless they were walking around yelling “I’M COVID POSITIVE AND IDGAF”, was there more to the story about that confrontation? Was she also not wearing a mask or something?

Edit: got it, read the other thread. I’d still be pretty hostile if people were coming up to bug me in public about it, but I hope I’d be a little more understanding for their concern

Yeah pretty much this. This was before our park had any Fastpass type system for the regular guests. The only way to skip lines was to pay several hundred dollars a person for the vip tour.

the last few seasons have been extra sad to watch because of the level of talent out there dying in service of Kirk cousins. I don't care about his stats, if he was actually a good quarterback they would have made it to another super bowl loss by now.

As a casual GB fan I agree with this take. Cousins isn't terrible but he's always been mysteriously overrated to me. He's had an incredible cast in MN and hasn't done any more with it than Case Keenum managed LOL. I appreciate the rest of the Vikings' offense, Thielen and Diggs were outstanding together and I was sad when Dalvin Cook got injured, but I just cannot stand Kirk. His biggest football accomplishment is swindling team ownership out of $89m guaranteed (and I would rather a bunch of non-chud players had gotten paid with that money instead). His lack of on-field success will never stop being hilarious.

Edit: Hot take, I just re-watched the Minneapolis Miracle and the Vikings should have stuck with Keenum.

Keenum was lucky in a way that worked. Cousins is not bad but he's as good as what's around him. Rodgers activity makes the Packers better than they would be with someone else. The offensive line in Minnesota is and has been a tire fire for some time.

2017 Keenum was an anomaly. I lived that season, but he regressed to his mean thereafter. Cousins gives you stability, but he's not gonna lift the team.
