Kid-how many sick students, or sick parents, grand parents, teachers, janitors etc. would make you stop and think and perhaps apply the old saying, "an ounce of prevention" to a real life situation?

This disease could have been controlled with a little more leadership, truth, sacrifice and discipline, and a lot less politics.

I have no problem having kids at colleges and dealing with the illness as it comes

Problems arise when schools do not hold students accountable for running way afoul of guidelines (read:. schools will not expel students because of monetary concerns).

No deterrent = no reason for kids to not have parties

I'm glad you have no problem with kids and presumably anyone else dealing wuth the disease at it comes up.

This is the same fucking short-sighted moronic thinking we had 6.5 million infected Americans, and 200,000 dead Americans ago, in February.

you don't learn do you?

even when you are told you were lied to.


you dumb fuck.

Even if they don't play a game this season Maryland will still find a way to lose a few.

Rose Bowl to severe ties with Big Whatever Oct. 25

USC football team just voted to switch conferences, joining B1G Oct 24.

Thank God the leaders of the B1G have finally prioritized once and for all, whether a university should stress academics or athletics.

Its cash.

As former Golden Gopher student-poet, Bob Dylan once noted, money don't talk, it swears.

Look out kid
you're gonna get hit
By losers, cheaters
and your fucking leaders

This will not end well for the students, the athletes (including those who may be both) and  the colleges and universities.

Notes on BigTen scheduling from news reports.

The Big Ten will follow an "8+1" schedule, featuring eight regular-games followed by a ninth cross-divisional game for every team to be played the same weekend as the Big Ten Championship game.

The cross-divisional matchups will be decided based on each team's divisional standing at the end of the season.

As usual, the top team in the east will play the top team in the west for the championship, but this year all the other teams will be matched up, as well, with the second-place teams facing off, the third-place teams facing off, and so on.

Here's how the matchups would have played out if the conference followed this format last season.

Ohio State vs. Wisconsin
Penn State vs. Minnesota
Michigan vs. Iowa
Indiana vs. Illinois
Michigan State vs. Purdue
Maryland vs. Nebraska
Rutgers vs. Northwestern

The actual schedule of the 8 week regular season will be announced this week.

No tickets will be sold to the games.
 But player families will be accommodated.

What do you see happening?

How many Americans have died from this Virus?


deej-spilled milk.

IMO the more appropriate question to be addressed is, how many more Americans are you willing to put at risk through infection, hospitaliation, and death and how much  pain and suffering and disruption (economic, financial, social etc.) is tolerable, so you can watch college football for a couple of months in 2020?

You've drilled down to the heart of the matter.

Kid once again you have demonstrated your credentials as Elba's village idiot.

I see people get infected and dieing due to a lack of national leadership, an unfortunate and idiotic  partisanization of common sense public health measures, and our inability to sacrifice for the common good.

But answer the question(s) that Deej and I asked or infered:

How many more Americans are you willing to put at risk through infection, hospitaliation, and death and how much  pain and suffering and disruption (economic, financial, social etc.) is tolerable, so you can watch college football for a couple of months in 2020?

If you could save 50,000 lives would you?

How about 5,000 or 500?

What's an acceptable body count so you can watch Penn St v Rutgers this year?

How fucking stupid and selfish are you?
