@PHShriver Tough call. Ostapenko doesn't have the best rep w sportsmanship, so her motives can be questioned. But, many players do this kind of quick dance b4 returning serve & it's hard for an ump to question her motives.
@ArchisticMind Wait, what?!! Not only did all officials agree that Novak had be b DQed, but Novak also agreed. He knew the rules. It is bc of the class he showed that day that I have always admired him. It was an accident and a horrible event, but the only result possible given the situation.
@MardyFish@DjokerNole People r complex, Djokovic more than most. He messed up here in a few ways, but also never gets the credit he deserves. No 1 mentions the 1m eu he donated to fight Covid. Twitter is a breeding ground 4 total condemnation or total reverence. No 1 is that absolutely good or bad.
@ReillyOpelka U can seriously disagree w someone, even think he did some indefensible things that endangered others, but still try to c his good deeds. Twitter world seems only to 100% condemn or 100% revere figures. Why? People r way more complex than + or -.
@DORINJO@shonemicto@josemorgado Why did I figure you wouldn't answer? Having ur option w/o data or references is not worth anything. Thanks for being a tropical Twitter keyboard warrior lacking in all logic and reason, but full of passion and bile.
@shonemicto@josemorgado & yes, the current vaccines are kind of new, but r based on a family of vaccines 20+ years old. Also, every new vaccine has 2b new b/c there r always new diseases 2 treat. Polio and small pox vaxes were very new in their day. Many objected 2 them, but they saved millions/billions
@shonemicto@josemorgado Also, let's not be so arrogant as to 2nd guess the overwhelming medical opinion of people who have spent their lives studying infectious diseases &/or vaccines. We have as much business 2nd guessing them as we have telling Nole how to hit a backhand.
@shonemicto@josemorgado As for vaccine mandates and the effectiveness of vaccines, I'd say 1st look at the history of vaccines in general. Small pox and polio never achieved herd immunity. They were eradicated by vaccines.
@shonemicto@josemorgado Novak blamed his immigration form error: โWe are living in challenging times in a global pandemic and sometimes these mistakes can occur.โ but what additional steps has he taken for this pandemic? He did not protect himself but instead argued against vaccine mandates.
@shonemicto@josemorgado Also, if he agrees that CV19 is real, as you say, why has he done so little to address it? Why not heed the medical community's consensus & advise people 2 get vaccinated? Why hide his status? If he disagrees w/ the vaccines mandates, why not disclose his status?
@shonemicto@josemorgado I'm glad Novak took steps to address a pandemic that has claimed 5.5 million lives. I understand Serbian news reported CV19 wasn't a big deal, but Novak is a man of the world and should have done more research to arrive at this conclusion earlier.
@shonemicto@josemorgado Ok, I hear u. & 2 b clear, I've always been a Nole fan. But, what is happening here is not logical & I can't back him on this. W/ respect, I say that that if Novak was told that CV-19 was not dangerous, he certainly acted as such. That tournament he hosted was a super spreader.
@DORINJO@shonemicto@josemorgado Ok, but if I do point out rules Djokovic broke, will it change ur opinion? Or, will you go off on another point unrelated to the rules he broke and the special treatment, to his benefit, that he received? Be honest. I think you're clearly biased & won't listen to any other point.
@ziva808@shonemicto@josemorgado Ok, cite studies showing 5G causes Covid. Make sure they're peer-reviewed. Also, I am not saying anything, I'm just pointing out what the VAST majority of the medical community says. I am not so arrogant as to say I know better than the experts who have spent their lives on this.
@ziva808@shonemicto@josemorgado Confused what ur asking. I can tell u the OVERWHELMING majority of the medical & scientific community do not believe that 5G causes Covid. They say there's 0 evidence to support the 5G claim & plenty of evidence 2 support the contrary. U have 2 be a conspiracy theorist 2 disagree
@shonemicto@josemorgado โฆhis wife posted videos claiming Covid was caused by 5G, he refused to disclose his vaccination status, & so many other things. He gambles heโd be able to keep his antivax stance & play a tournament that he knew required vaccination. Risky move & his fault if it costs him.
@shonemicto@josemorgado & yes, the other Covid positive players who had medical exemptions were deported. Had Novak not come, there might not have been any notice and they could have gotten away w it. But the world #1 draws more attention. Also, he held that disastrous event w no Covid protocolโฆ
@shonemicto@josemorgado 2 b clear, Iโve always been a fan of The Joker. I mention immigrants bc of this Aussie defense attorney talking on the subject: https://t.co/86Mxb07PER
