News Priorities

Looks like it was recent, but he may have lied on multiple occasions. Including, if he actually tested positive.

Shocking!! He bought himself a false positive.

I’m not sure if the result is doctored, but the negative result was collected before the positive result and there is proof he lied about not traveling before flying to Australia, so his credibility is toast.

He could face years in prison and probably won’t be allowed in for years. I’m guessing the second is likely. There really isn’t any point in trying to get serbia to fly him back to jail him, when they don’t want him there.

Since the date of the “positive” result was doctored, good chance the result was too.

The reactions to this are pretty bad. If this thing never existed, nobody would think any less of him than before. And there is now this thing where if someone has a different opinion on anything covid related, some people think the other person is a horrible person. Or an idiot. That already happened in USA after trump got elected. Now it seems to be global. Of course that stuff never happens at bbad, lol.

He’s not allowed in serbia actually.

lol i dont think any less of him than before (not that i have a high opinion of any professionals that make outrageous amounts of money in the first place lol)

the guy just wanted to play tennis and break that record and probably instructed his staff to do whatever would give him the biggest chance to do so
if anyone needs to go to prison it will be one of his staff members lol

I don’t think it matters. He has his exemption, in his hands, in writing. If you’re going to give someone a visa, you’re a clown if you turn around and say “oh, we lied, haha, get out”. There’s this whole matter of keeping your word that the Aussies don’t seem to get. I wonder how an Aussie would feel if they applied for a visa to visit some country, received approval, booked their trip, arranged their time, flew across the world to get there, only to be told “oh, you know that visa we gave you, we changed our minds, get out”. Ridiculous, clown-like behaviour.

Agreed. This guy has gotten all the attention of mine that he’s going to get. I dislike him and will do my best to forget about him now.

It seems like none of us really like djokovic. He probably does not care.

He might have trouble playing Wimbledon and the French open.

We agree.

Not likely. This will probably propel him to heroic status in Serbia.

I don’t know why you think that. The Serbian president is calling for him to come home.

No doubt. When you start making that kind of money you can afford to let others do the talking for you and look what it got him. His people checked the wrong box.

Excessive! He does need to get rid of his unreliable assistants.

What a Djoke! It is amazing how well you twist facts to blame the Australian government. While they are, in fact, acting like a authoritarian government to their own people, dictating what they can and can’t do, they reviewed and found Djok’s immigration paperwork and covid test failed to meet strict covid regulations.

I think they kept their word. They made it plain that no one plays without vaccination or a qualifying medical exemption. It’s clear he didn’t provide that.

I suspect they would probably feel like fools if they were caught manipulating their application.

Good luck, Buddy! The media is churning out Djok news by the hour.

Yeah, you’re probably right about that. He has plenty of faithful followers to give him all the glory he needs.

Yes, it is true that they did that. My complaint is that they did it after issuing him a written medical exemption, as provided for in their own processes. They had morning-after regret upon seeing the public’s reaction to his medical exemption and revoked that visa. Twice. They are clowns.

I don’t know how you can think that when Djokovic received and provided that written medical exemption, and that it was confirmed at all levels of Australian government that he had in fact received that medical exemption. The clowns changed their mind after seeing how pissed off the public was.

On this you are almost certainly right. I tried to forget about this story and told Isa that I was done talking about it. We had an errand to run at the local shopping mall and she pointed at a huge screen, probably 30 feet across, showing the Djokovic story being covered live. So much for forgetting about this. I wonder if his career will be over now. He should cave and get the vaccine.

Would you live here? Looks cheap.

Morning-after regret? I suppose I never looked at it that way. We should praise the public for their highly influential reaction.

No doubt, the public influenced the government but it was ultimately Djok’s negative and then (fake) positive test that confirmed the governments suspicions.

I looked. It’s just about as cheap as you can make. Smaller than a prison cell with no breathing room.

(with all the novax stories posted here i assume this is the sportstopic of bbad)
