YOU LIKE THAT?

Kirk Cousins is probably going to be dragged furiously after going on a recent podcast and basically shrugging off COVID-19, like it’s nothing.

From ESPN:

Kirk Cousins said he is taking a “survival of the fittest” personal approach to the coronavirus, even if it kills him.

“If I die, I die,” the Minnesota Vikings quarterback said during a recent interview on Spotify’s “10 Questions With Kyle Brandt” podcast. “I kind of have peace about that.”

Cousins indicated during the interview, published Wednesday, that he does not believe face masks work in helping to prevent the spread of COVID-19, but he repeatedly said that he also tried to respect others’ “concerns” about the virus.

Brandt asked Cousins to rate his level of concern over contracting the virus on a 1-10 scale, with 1 being “the person who says, ‘Masks are stupid, you’re all a bunch of lemmings,’ and 10 is, ‘I’m not leaving my master bathroom for the next 10 years.'”

Cousins replied: “I’m not gonna call anybody stupid, for the trouble it would get me in. But I’m about a .000001.”

Yeah, well, that’s just like, Kirk’s opinion man, as Jeff Bridges famously said in The Big Lebowski. Cousins can say or believe whatever he wants, because it’s a free country, but he’s going to be absolutely demolished by the blue checkmarks on the Twitter. It’s gonna be ugly.
