#2 Texas vs. #7 Mississippi State (2 Game) Thread

[java]

I think they are selfish, and I am glad the NCAA didn’t let unvaccinated players take the field to possibly expose other team. 

The selfish part is letting your team down, but you are correct, it is a personal choice, and it is only my opinion that it is selfish. I, personally, don’t like to let anyone down.

We will probably start high school wearing masks, even though vaccinated, because so many students said they would not get a vaccination  If their parents made them, great!

Does it look like Miss State pitches are wearing wool or polyester. Maybe the rich SEC could updates the technology of the uniforms. Those pitches are sweating buckets.
