In columns over the last three days, two of the city’s most respected sports columnists took to the keyboard to give their opinions on Mayor Eric Adams’ decision to let Kyrie Irving play in the city. Mike Lupica of the Daily News and Mike Vaccaro of the Post addressed the situation from different perspectives, but both were not fans of the move.
Lupica, writing Saturday, thinks the mayor rewarded Irving (and the unvaccinated Mets and Yankees) for “bad behavior.”
Kyrie gets to play home games now, despite his unchanged chuckle-hut stance on vaccines.
