WHY do you care. WHAT is your point with this thread. I have tried to make sense of someone bragging and even salivating over no CFB this fall but WHY are you in a football forum with this chit? It is an honest question. I doubt that I will get an answer that makes the first bit of sense.

He doesn't respond, he's not very smart, he's an agitator and has openly wished death on people in this forum. He also bragged about going to Florida to live in a trailer park all the while criticizing the Florida governor for his response. This is his told you so parade that is falling apart quickly

The why hasn't @Freak punted his sorry ass? Seems like wishing death on someone would be grounds for dismissal.

"Pat Forde: With college athletes returning to campus to begin voluntary workouts, so has come the COVID-19 testing and so have come the positive tests. We had a report yesterday that five Alabama athletes tested positive for the virus. There was seven at Arkansas State. Oklahoma State had some positive tests and so on, so forth. And this is probably going to be the case throughout the country as athletes come back from various locations and we find out who has the virus and who doesn't."

Great example. To me, this is where most AD's, Fulmer included are coming from. Everyone's got plan A for playing the full tilt, but, they're for sure developing plans B,C,D... with the effort of playing ball. Outside of doing what's right for the players because ultimately, they're the caretakers for people's kids, just from a financial stand point, if they don't go to all measures to protect the players, they miss any longer term financial opportunities for this season. I think they'll start the season with the most conservative approach possible...probably no fans, and see how that goes until they open the flood gates for a certain number of folks to attend games.

Sense abounds.

and the same people mad about protesters won't wear a mask because "it's their right"

Some don't wear masks based on recommendations from the WHO (only if you're known to be infected) or the CDC (only if you can't maintain 6' distancing).

"We need to ask ourselves how alarmed we should be with these positive cases on sports teams. Because we’re going to keep seeing them.
There will be more — probably many more — reports of football players testing positive as colleges and high schools move forward in summer workouts with the goals of games this fall. And those will just be the ones we know about.

With COVID-19 cases already appearing on football teams, how alarmed should we be?"

For the general public? Where in that document? Still appears to say only when close contact is unavoidable or if you show possible symptoms.

Table 2. Examples of where the general public should be encouraged to use medical and non-medical masks in areas with
known or suspected community transmission

Areas with known or suspected
widespread transmission and limited or
no capacity to implement other
containment measures such as
physical distancing, contact tracing,
appropriate testing, isolation and care
for suspected and confirmed cases.


Settings with high population density
where physical distancing cannot be
achieved; surveillance and testing
capacity, and isolation and quarantine
facilities are limited.

Settings where a physical distancing
cannot be achieved (close contact).

Settings where physical distancing
cannot be achieved and increased risk
of infection and/or negative outcomes.

Live in Bama and I wish you could tell that garbage to my 51 year old friend who just died Monday from Covid with a 12,16, and 18 year old.

The people in question are healthy 18-22 year olds. Let’s not pretend the risk is equal

I keep up to date on information which has been peer reviewed and I not seen anything which provides enough data to confirm the Doctors statement. Random data, if not collected by protocol, are unreliable. Based on past data from past pandemics, novel viruses seem to become more dangerous in the second wave. While Sars and Mars were more deadly, they were not nearly as communicable and did not spread very rapidly and did not pose lasting problems. It appears that Covid19 will be with us for a long time, similar to flu viruses. We will have to wait and seen what the future holds.

Why do you seem so happy about the idea of having any games cancelled or not having the season at all, like you championed in another thread?
