Some of us have been way ahead of some of these infectious disease doctors on many of these COVID issues. How can that be? I'll tell you, one thing that I have learned about this entire COVID experience is that it has so many different layers to it and although people like Fauci and crew have value, it takes more than doctors and experts to come to good decision making. Data aggregation by data experts who know how to sift through data and come to statistical determinations are probably one of the most important if not most important people that should be part of the decision making. The infectious disease experts while valuable in helping understand the underlying disease are limited in scope. They sort of have tunnel vision and just like any doctor, they are trained and used to saying to taking the "safe" and precautious route in just about everything. Of course, taking the safe and precautious route has real world implications which in this case involves deleterious effects in wrecking people's livelihoods and mental/physical health. They hate Atlas, because Atlas is in the spot light and truth be told, they probably honestly believe that he is giving reckless advice. I have seen and heard what Atlas has said and there is nothing that he has said that I can think of that I disagree with. The things he is saying cannot be 100% verified at this time, and going back to what I said earlier these doctors are cautious by nature and Atlas is giving advice that doesn't fit that mold. But what he says is backed up by statistical probabilities on data he's gone through. I wish he would have been employed earlier by the Trump task force but in my view he is definitely who Trump would want out there. These other guys keep saying contradictory things and what they say is very alarmist in nature. Fauci stands to reap millions from his/CDC vaccine patents of course, this is in addition to his patents on the virus itself not much need for a vaccine when the fear about the severeity of the virus is stripped away to show a 99.7% survival rate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franco_92 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Judging by the reactions of typical fans in the titans thread, I guess we are still going to pretend this was the virus we feared in March rather than the one we have data on now.

The NFL has the experience of MLB to go on. There were a couple notable outbreaks: the Marlins first, the Cardinals worst. MLB responded aggressively by postponing games. It worked. They got their 2-month season in, they'll get their (diminished) playoff ratings in an (expanded) post-season and World Series. The league is not overreacting; they're protecting the viability of their product in this 2020 season. If you're a Titans fan it kinda sucks. It did for the Marlins and Cards too, but interestingly, despite the severe disruptions, both are in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't come in contact with the coaches, maybe? Not sure they even care. The players aren't even going to end up any more sick then if they had a flu (if AT ALL) let alone hospitalized and no one is dying. NO ONE. Does anyone realize how asinine this all is yet? Completely asinine. Edited September 29, 2020 by Big Blitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely asinine. Again, I don't think it is. The NFL is protecting a product, and for this season, that product is a TV show that plays every Sunday, Monday, and Thursday night and all day on Sunday afternoon. They realize (like MLB) that if this spreads beyond the Titans they're gonna shut down or be shut down. It is a business decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you are indemnifying the NFL if the Steelers travel to TN and a member of their traveling party (needn't be a player or coach) gets sick. Awfully nice of you. Besides: if the game is postponed for a bit (not for too long ... let's say just until Tuesday) the Titans get a short week to prepare for the Bills on 10/11. So I'm all for it.
