The California numbers regarding kids under 18 was cited in response to an anecdote about an infant falling ill. Those numbers certainly suggest that there is no reason for kids not to be in school and playing HS sports. But in fact, the number of deaths for people under 40 dying from CV19 in California and elsewhere, while not zero, is vanishingly small--a fact the media never talks about. It's true that dying isn't the only problem associated with CV19. But the number of hospitalizations for people under 40 is small as well, and the evidence of long term effects from the disease are of course anecdotal at this point, as is your story about the rowing team, all of whom apparently recovered. (It doesn't say how many of the "infected" rowers actually got sick, but it's worth noting that none required hospitalization. Articles about the horrors of CV19 rarely mention that most of the "infected" never even showed symptoms.) It is also worth noting that certain heart conditions (such as a temporarily enlarged heart) are common after patients recover from any respiratory illness, such as the flu. it's hardly surprising that this is being observed in some recovered CV19 patients.

Sorry, anecdotal evidence like this proves nothing. In the entire state of California, not one person under 18-years old has died of CV19. That a sample size of 9 million kids. You can confirm this by going to the state’s Coronavirus dashboard. The demographics of this disease have been wildly misrepresented in the media. It poses very little risk to healthy people under 60 years old, and even less than that to NFL football players in their 20s. Players who are opting out are either seriously misinformed, are making a business decision, or have some significant pre-existing medical condition that makes them more vulnerable.

Kyle Williams. American Century Golf Tournament
mannc replied to CowgirlsFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Fish is a really good player. Kyle has his work cut out for him. As good as guys like Kyle and Romo are, it is like night and day between them and even the lowest journeymen on the PGA tour. You can tell the difference watching one swing, or even one chip or putt. -
So it’s confirmed that they cheated—again. Incredible.

Does the NFL have a bubble plan? Covid rising
mannc replied to Ramza86's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Thank you. These athletes (and their coaches) are at far greater risk of dying in an auto accident on their way to practice. -
The players who test positive will no doubt quarantine for a week or two to avoid infecting others, just like someone with the flu would be expected to stay home. BFD. Furthermore, the evidence that non-symptomatic people (esp. young people) are major spreaders of the disease is weak at best. Finally, the vast majority of college coaches and trainers are also in age categories where the virus poses less risk than things like accidental drowning or being struck by lightning. What was your point? No football this year? GTFOOH!

McCoy had one really good year for the Bills. And he was an easily replaced RB. Hughes has been our best pass rusher for seven years in a row, FFS. He probably will be again in 2020.
-
Hughes trade and it's not close. Hughes is still an elite (or near elite) player at a very high value position. McCoy was overpaid and overrated at the lowest value position on the field. He really only had two good seasons here. Hughes on the other hand is still playing at a high level seven years after trade.

Chris Simms thinks Stidham is more talented than Tua
mannc replied to BuffaloBills1998's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think you are wrong. The pistol offense they ran at Oregon was a terrible match for his skill-set, especially after they refused to let him run, his senior year. I think he’s going to be a really good pro. -
Chris Simms thinks Stidham is more talented than Tua
mannc replied to BuffaloBills1998's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You should be. He’s going to be the best QB in this class, and he’s walking into a very good situation in LA. He’s what Josh Allen would have looked like if he’d started 4 years at a major program. -
I’m more than a little disappointed that no one has cued up that epic video of a liquored-up Baker being chased and tackled by the cops...

Oh, I get it. The people who left Kaepernick out to dry for three years are in a tough position right now...doesn’t mean I can’t laugh at them.
-
Interesting. I don’t recall JJ Watt (or BOB) speaking out on Kaepernick’s behalf before now. Smells like disingenuous opportunism to me...

A laughable take. Herbert is ten times the prospect Osweiler was. -

mannc replied to BuffaloBills1998's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So guys who go higher in the draft are always better than guys who go later? Come on, you know better than that. You act as though it’s an objective fact that Tua is a better QB than Stidham when neither has played more than a couple of snaps... -

mannc replied to BuffaloBills1998's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
How is it stupid talk? Tua is injury-prone, undersized and has yet to take a snap in even a preseason NFL game, and Stidham has barely played a series in the NFL. He was a good college QB at a top program and has good tools. Simms has been right far more than he’s been wrong, especially when it comes to evaluating QBs. -
Probably. I just wonder if sometimes the publicity can work against a guy like Oliver, with a DA who doesn’t want to be seen rolling over for the rich and famous.

People would be shocked at the things a good defense lawyer can do to undermine a DWI charge...

No, he’s being processed right now...
