I guess most assumed the NFL wouldn't be this reckless.

If you're a Bills player to you want to go and play against a virus infected team at their stadium?

Now hoping for more positive tests. This is ridiculous.

I know that and I know Biden’s line of attack. I was answering a hypothetical. I just don’t think either one could clearly and concisely on a debate stage for different reasons. Trump because he talks in fragmented sentences and gets sidetracked easily. Biden because of his stuttering problems along with his memory loss. Maybe if they wrote it down I guess.

A competent Biden - We wouldn't be in this situation in the first place if the president would've taken the situation more seriously. The death per capita is near the top compared to nearly every major industrialized country. Now because of the Trump's administration's incompetence we must institute a national mask policy so businesses can reopen safely without a spike in cases. The mandate can't be relaxed until we get a vaccine in which the president has repeatedly assured us in coming very soon. Then we can get our economy up and rolling again. A competent Trump - We had record low unemployment before the China virus. Our administration shut down flights for China despite criticism from the Democrats. We provided all the PPE equipment the governors asked for. A vaccine will be coming very soon but we can't afford to close down again. I trust the American citizens to take the proper safety precautions until a vaccine is available and widely distributed. Then you'll see a great economic comeback like never before. Do I think either candidate can give a coherent response like that? No. Do I think they'd be constantly interrupting each other? Yes.

If no more positive tests come up between now and kickoff the game will pry be played on Sunday. Too much money to lose with TV contracts so I doubt they shorten the season. The only bubble like scenario I could see during the regular season is for teams to isolate themselves in hotels, practice facilities, etc. and not allow them to venture away from the team (including seeing their wives and kids). Not sure if the NFLPA would agree to that although they may be forced to if this gets too out of control.

Gives substantive reasons why one would vote for Biden. Ignores and repeats the talking point that there is only voting against Trump.

Concerning. Time for Frazier to go up to the booth.

It even caught me by surprise as I was expecting a HB dive to Gore somehow.

I was being sarcastic. It reminded me more of a cspan primary debate in the 80's which was fine with me. Politics should be boring.

A decent debate by both candidates. I think it changed a lot of minds on here tonight.

The NFL's cavalier approach to making the schedule business as usual seems to be backfiring. They should've included multiple bye weeks to be able to move missed games.

Me entering this thread and then realizing the pinned covid policy.

That's because both parties aren't that different when it comes to economic policy.

Do you work for the Lincoln Project? If you're apolitical I get it as you just want a more palatable statesman in office. If you're at least somewhat of an ideologue just saying Trump's a narcissistic blowhard isn't good enough.

Basically a one year rental contract like that. There's definitely teams that would've given him a similar contract as he'd be a better option at guard on some teams around the league.

That was my only problem with DR in that he pretended to be neutral but his posting history suggested to me he was closer to a libertarian. At least since I joined when the BBMB just disappeared. He would twist himself in pretzels to defend Trump no matter what. That's just a personal critique though and I don't know enough about happened to see if he deserved to get banned or not. He's always been respectful to me though.

He regressed this year as he played fairly well last year. Resigning him at the time made sure you could keep the same o-line together (Dawkins, Spain, Morse, Feliciano, Ford/Nsekhe) if you wanted to this year. Continuity they say is important with offensive lines. It was before the Daryl Williams signing (didn't know what to expect from him) and the Winters signing. If we cut Spain after this season it's only a 1.5 million dollar cap hit spread out over the next two seasons. At the worst you're getting great depth at the o-line. Wish they did the same with LB's.

When Daboll went up to the booth.

There is some irony in the guy who kept the team in NY made his money in something outlawed here. I don't know enough about the process as far as environmental impact goes even with strict regulations.

Biden isn't the greatest orator obviously but his official position is he won't allow new fracking leases on public land (where about 10% of fracking in the US takes place). I have my doubts he can even get that through. As far as a possible peace deal between Israel and Saudi Arabia, last I read Saudi Arabia wouldn't even consider it until Israel made peace with the Palestinians. Obama didn't have a good relationship with Netanyahu but still provided Israel a record amount of financial assistance at the time. I'd assume a Biden presidency would do the same.

It's really not a high bar. This place has been nuts lately.

What's the confusion you have over fracking? It's been his policy since the beginning of his campaign for no new fracking on public lands. Banning it would take away a technique that has allowed us to become largely energy independent and would be political suicide in a state like Pennsylvania. Fracking expanded at the greatest rate in history during the Obama/Biden years.

He's a right handed Shane Falco.

Basically, if you liked how things were under Obama vote for Biden. If not, vote for Trump.
