You may not see stats that people die from the flu or covid, because generally they die from the complications due to flue or covide, ie pneumonia, respiratory disease, heart and so on. The point is, these kids are safe and all the pansy-ass wrapping them in bubblewrap will never work. You may also want to try and understand the costs they will have from not playing...and I'm referring to much more than revenue. I'm referring to alcohol problems, suicides, domestic abuse. Football gives many of these kids the motivation to avoid those pitfalls. Without it, many of them lose their focus.

Bullshit, they should have been eliminated immediately, do the right things as a organization and you win ball games, should be the same here, avoid outbreaks by doing the right things and you should get to play, not wait to compete with those that did not, Cmfgobluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01534976507111785642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4068822035923402169.post-35546970293926633192020-08-27T20:09:02.152-04:002020-08-27T20:09:02.152-04:00From I have seen from the data provided by Michiga...From I have seen from the data provided by Michigan athletic department that they were doing an excellent job containing the virus.

I don't even know anybody that's been in the hospital because of the flu. The WHO says that the flu data are estimates not actual body counts and the doctors say it's way overstated.szanrenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02934886327264995314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4068822035923402169.post-79485029654912508292020-08-27T12:09:51.988-04:002020-08-27T12:09:51.988-04:00I agree, we have as a nation over reacted & di...I agree, we have as a nation over reacted & did so with no exit strategy & all this in an election year which only served to politicize this.

Should we bunker down for the flu? “Harms way”? These kids are more in harms way from not playing football than from playing it. Cancelling is cowardly.

I asked him about the news report of 500+ positive cases on campus. His reply, "There are over 33,000 on campus, between students and staff, 550 cases is just over 1.5%, which is about what you'd expect".<br />I asked if there was any mention of how many were symptomatic vs asymptomatic, he said to his knowledge there was not.Scott Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05656497653843030628noreply@blogger.com
