    Let's hope Fremont Troll doesn't give the players a pep talk about continuing the season.

    Fremont let's both support closing down shop?


    I still want a bowl game, but the kids aren’t even sick and the covid bullshit is ridiculous. I would think one player or staff member from the MLB, NFL, and college sports would have a serious hospitalization or death if this disease was really that deadly. Not every single player is in great health and that is especially true for the staffs.

    I get it, the protocols are what they are and the liability issue if something terrible happens, but it’s bullshit and everyone but covid bros that slurp up what they are told are buying it.


    I believe the one player I saw that was barely reported on was Ryquel Armstead, 23, of the Jaguars who was hospitalized multiple times with serious conditions from COVID-19 and was ultimately ruled out of the season entirely back in October.

    But that’s the only one I remember seeing.
    A number of high school coaches died. One coach at a small college. A couple high school football players.

    Since the deaths are just peaking there will probably be more among staffs. Players should be fine due to age and health although myocarditis could cause long term health issues for some.
    You're an idiot, always have been. Not every thought that your two neurons manage to piece together deserves its own post.
    Disagree. Now if you want to talk about how @jecornel is responding to quoted posts by typing above the quote box, I’m open to that.
    I wasn't gonna say it, but I'm glad some hero stepped up.

    Al Blades Jr. has myocarditis. No idea if it was the COVID or something else.

    Both Freemont's post and Jimmy's response made me laff.

    Multiple clinics have said this to family members for re integration. Also doctors have told other family members the test is so unreliable to not bother with one.
    I don’t know what to tell you. This first hand feedback. There health conditions in the family so precautions are being taken.

    Let’s assume UW accepts a bowl game bid. But then the game is called into question because the opposing team has a breakout and is cancelled. Or a key player goes down with a season ending injury that spills into next year. Or the game is played outside in freezing or snowy conditions effectively wiping out a game in the dead of winter.

    OR a UW player tests positive before the bowl game this cancelling it.

    I suggest, close it down, get healthy and prepare for winter conditioning and spring practice.

    Call me stupid but at this point what are benefits of continuing this farce.

    Jimmy confirmed there has been no symptoms displayed by the impacted. In the real world you can’t get a test unless you display symptoms.


    Right on cue here comes little jimmy with the terrible take that UW can use to discredit all reasonable opinions and convince themselves they did the right thing after all.

    That is incorrect Little Jimmy Cornell.

    What are we arguing about?

    My whole family was tested prior to traveling to see my in-laws. No symptoms. Just told three different doctors (mine, my beard's, and my kids') that we'd be spending time with seniors, and all three prescribed the test without a second thought. This was back in August.

    I was tested again recently after I told my doctor my sinuses were a little plugged. Crossed my fingers, hoping for a positive. Two weeks off paid is two weeks off paid!...
