They started end of may and mid June you see the big spike. To be very clear I support what they protested for but sadly there have been some very bad consequences. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Properly normalizing testing and taking into account the vast geographic scope and varying cold/flu hope-simpson seasonality for different regions, only NY/NJ/Mass. were negative outliers, compared to other western nations with potentially comparable coronavirus exposures (comparing to Pacific rim countries is not fair) and even those regions didn't see the doom that Italy saw The NFL should not be anywhere near as quick-twitch panicky as it's likely going to be It's really not, though. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Rookie quarterback Jake Fromm looked to get much more comfortable as the week went on. Initially, I felt he looked tentative and maybe even a bit overwhelmed. But by the end of the week he seemed much more confident and decisive, making a few really nice throws in 7-on-7 and 11-on-11." Jake would beat Barkley out in a typical preseason, I have no doubt. He may still. We know what Barkley is. Fromm’s floor is Barkley, who knows what his ceiling is.

You don’t see how Millions and millions of people out in close spaces could cause an outbreak weeks after the protests stated? Again. I absolutely agreed with why they protested: also it’s not like I made this up dr fauci said that the protests could cause more cases. So I’m just listening to what he warned us against.

If we field a top 1-5 D, which I expect we will, having a kid who can come in and manage a few games is huge. I have little faith in Barkley. If the bills have to play Barkley we are screwed 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things were heading back to crap-tacular in the south well before 5/25 when George Floyd was murdered and the protests began.

Stop with the pie in the sky stuff...it never should have gotten this bad after lockdown got the numbers down. Irresponsible reopening has caused this. The idea that non-immunoligical legislation can make macroscopic impacts on this virus, short of having a finger on each and every one of 380 million people, is what is pie-in-the-sky. There is a reason that an abundance of pandemic planning literature advises against strict lockdowns. 43 minutes ago, fansince88 said: Can we stay on topic @matter2003 and @arcane?

Any games JA has to miss will suck. If he were to miss 2 or 3 and we won one of them, I would be happy. The kid has SOME talent and I would assume would only be expected to run a Ball control O. We have the skill position players on O for the first time in forever to win. If TT QBd us to a playoff appearance , Fromm possibly isn’t the end of the world in short term service.

I will say this, the media was scared the protests would create a spike and positives would go up, large crowds, many with no masks(I mean that’s what’s causes it, large gatherings)... 3-4 weeks later, huge spike and they say it’s not due to protests? What changed? Also where I’m from, Panama City Beach FL, every other car is from out of state.... restaurants packed, beaches packed, streets packed... that’s been a problem as well...

I’m considering the source of this wisdom??? From had 78 TDs in the SEC in 3 years while never going below 60 % completions. TT had 44 TDs in the ACC in 4 years While never cracking 60% completions. Pretty ridiculous on my part? Edited August 23, 2020 by Buffalo Boy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or are scouring midwit journalism as I type No. I just have eyes and common sense and compassion. 175,000 dead Americans and counting, with no signs of the virus letting up any time soon. Still in the depths of dealing with this nightmare when nearly all other industrialized nations have, for the most part, moved past the worst of it. If thats “doing fine” to you, then we simply fundamentally disagree on what “doing fine” means. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
