Let's shelf the fact there are false positives and skewed numbers inflating the daily numbers, which are happening for a moment, and focus on your premise that the sky is falling and this is a brushfire out of control. Only 90 people out of 1000 tested have it based on those results. If your premise was close to being accurate, regardless of if the 14k people a day is true or not, the positive test results wouldn't be in the single digits. That is not something burning out of control. Your 78 out of 100 would be. That isnt 90 out of 1000 people are catching it...that is only 90 people who have symptoms and get tested out of 1000 tests have Covid.

July 16, 20205 yr 17 hours ago, JayEcho said: you are REALLY downplaying how many moving parts there are when a team travels. they are traveling for AT LEAST 8 WEEKS of the season. and just a head's up... this year the team is going to be HOSTING los angeles, dallas, seattle, and new orleans... along with TRAVELING TO san francisco, dallas, green bay, and arizona.. ALL HOT SPOTS. and this does NOT include those teams GOING to other cities. think about the number of people coming in contact with each other. and ask yourself, if it's really the safest thing.. even with precautions. again, it's not just head coaches and players.. it's the players, coaches, assistant coaches, trainers, medical personnel, assistants, equipment personnel, IT guys... that's a LOT of people going from city to city. it's asking for disaster. you can put the best precautions in place, but in a time of a pandemic.. travelling, especially with the number of people that a football team requires, is very counter common sense. Again, if everyone takes responsibility, it can be done. The issue is that not everyone will do that. And ultimately, everyone is scared of a virus that has a 99.6% survival rate.
July 16, 20205 yr 19 hours ago, Diehardfan said: It's not whatever when you have labs reporting 98% when it's 9% or another reporting 76% when it is 6%. This is happening across the country. Those are massive distortions. Unless they were absolute morons the NFL opened up the opportunity for a season anticipating a spike after quarantine. What we are seeing are massively inflated numbers. Covid is real and there is a spike, but the NFL and other sports are looking at numbers and real time decisions are being made right now based on those inflated numbers that impacts our ability to watch the games we love. Whatever, man. My wife is a physician assistant and I can assure the increases, even here in PA now, are not some left wing conspiracy to defeat Trump. Stay in your lane.

It really does not make a difference right now. FL is a joke. 15K new cases in a single day a few days ago. That is 4K more than NY had at their height. Your so clueless it hurts my head.

July 16, 20205 yr A little off topic but still in the spirit of the post I think. I'd like to see total deaths from ALL causes for a given month for the past 3 or 4 years. If the total number of deaths per month is not that different from previous years, that would make me wonder about the "Covid deaths" count. It sure seems like there's a political motivation to Covid accounting.

And one more question, did your dad shoot your good genes on the street or did it just miss the mark all together? Pretty easy to do in a dark alley. I get it. Inquiring minds wanna know. Your put downs are hilarious.
July 16, 20205 yr Nope. No football this year. I hate to say it, but the whiners and fearful and the media will continue to pound their message incessantly (while no one fact checks the story). The NFL clearly will give into the noise.....and the season will be cancelled. Not funny to think, but those needing a vaccine (or a safe zone) to proceed with life may still be pounding that drum next year...and the next...and the next. Add: If they played a game tomorrow, I'd be there and wouldn't think twice about it.

Director of CDC believes we could be well on the way to reopening in 4-8 weeks if we could get most Americans to wear masks in public. NIH indicates that a vaccine may be available in the next 12 - 18 months. I want to get back to normal and I would love to have football actually happen this year. What will I do without FF? Our house is making responsible decisions to keep others safe, hopefully everybody else is too and we can have NFL in 2020.

Add: If they played a game tomorrow, I'd be there and wouldn't think twice about it. Yep. Something like 99% of the people who get Covid don't die from it yet people want to risk crashing the economy and missing out on football. They will get a vaccine and then it will be like the flu where it morphs and it's a roll of the dice. This is going to be life for the foreseeable future.
July 16, 20205 yr If the current vaccine status remains hopeful, millionaires and athletes will be the first to receive it. That's just the way of the world. But my doctor told me they personally would avoid a 1.0 version of this vaccine. It's been created too quickly, like the Swine Flu vaccine years ago that killed people.
July 16, 20205 yr If they do ping pong balls for the draft and the Eagles get the first pick.... Can't see any other way they do it. The Bengals can't get it automatically. That's another problem they are going to have.
July 16, 20205 yr Fans aren’t banned from the games for no reason, you know? It’s for public safety. I’d rather people not die simply because they made the decision to attend an Eagles game.

It sure seems like there's a political motivation to Covid accounting. Guarantee if you looked at those figures the death toll would look worse, as an example in the UK when the National Statistics Office counted deaths above the expected average the death toll comes out way over 60,000, whereas the official diagnosed COVID deaths total is around 45,000.
