It was almost as awesome as watching my beloved Los Angeles Dodgers win their first World Series in 32 years.
Justin Turner, their all-star third baseman, was removed from Game 6 of the World Series after a positive COVID test. Then, to the shock and dismay of Lockdown Nation, Turner, who was asymptomatic, ignored instructions to self-isolate and joined his teammates in the post-game victory celebration.
Needless to say, the drama queens at Major League Baseball have … you guessed it … launched an investigation.
Good for Justin Turner! We need to stop treating COVID like it’s the bubonic plague. Why don’t people come unhinged like this every flu season? Contagious diseases have been with us forever and will never go away. Let’s just get on with normal life.
