There's nothing in the articles above that inspires me to want college, pro or even high school athletes to take the risk for my entertainment. You can't block, tackle, receive, intercept or recover covid to win a game. The 'right' to spread this disease to fellow players, coaches, families and fans isn't .... right. AAMOF, it's rather immoral.
They don't take any risk for you or me. They want to play football and try for the NFL -- for themselves. They want that so badly that they devote their lives to much toil and discomfort. They do it because it is their goal and passion.
Players and coaches and fans who don't want to play don't have to do so. Players generally are not living with their families, but for any that are, that can figure into their decision process -- same as it figures into your and my decision process on whether or not we go to a restaurant, to a friend's house, shopping on a busy day, etc.
Anyone who doesn't want to be exposed to SARS-2 can already stay away from crowds, wear masks, sanitize hands before entering home. It isn't a player's job to keep me safe. It's my job to keep me safe as I deem appropriate.
Of course, all of this is just a discussion for fun. Alea iacta est. And not by me or you.
