Right. But the NFL has pretty well established pay ranges for position salaries, starters, etc. They have agents, the union and collective bargaining. And nobody is playing for free.
People with different work ethics and abilities live different lives, etc. etc. No kidding. But for college footb...

I’m not sure I’ve seen it brought up here, but what about the O lineman who busts his arse in practice and gets his brains knocked around every Saturday to protect the QB who is making all the money? It’s going to create unregulated inequity of compensation. What does that do to the unheralded cogs i...
re: Looking for strangers advice about covid in schools

Mono is potentially so much worse than people realize. A couple of weeks of being in bed sick with fatigue, enlarged spleen and other after effects for months. Covid, at that age, is just a virus. From that point... time contagious, how contagious, asymptomatic spread, etc is a wildcard. Depends on ...

I’m not defending anyone’s actions. Especially at this point. BUT... the excessive vent requests and field hospitals early on were based on horrible models and the assumption that the virus was “one-size-fits-all” and everyone was at the same risk as those nursing home patients. At this point there ...

It sounds as though you are leaning towards a notable level of immunity existing and, due to that, the virus eventually burning out. And pretty soon. If that’s the case, the state will continue to get better from this point on until we reach a low plateau, like we have seen in Orleans. It’s not two ...

re: So let me get this straight regarding “studies”
Posted by MarcusQuinn on 6/27/20 at 4:20 pm
An opinion based on very limited data about a new virus. An opinion before the possibility of a large number of potentially contagious asymptomatic or pre-symptomatic cases was known. An option before all of the symptoms were even known. An opinion given as people were hoarding the masks we 100% kne...

But people have latched onto a recently published study that says antibodies are no longer present after two months. This is being interpreted as meaning there is also no longer any immunity. That’s not necessarily true. It’s much more complicated than that. ...

This is a pretty detailed account of how immunity might work with this virus. If you’re interested it’s a good read. It touches on some of the topics that have been discussed here regarding possible T-cell immunity.

I think opening bars, on campus in particular, is about to result in a notable increase in cases. There’s a growing buzz. If so, it will be interesting to see how newer cases correlate with hospitalizations. The early spread included a notable percentage of elderly patients. Id assume those congrega...

How about fear of closed businesses, fear of limited ability to travel, fear of closed schools, fear of a depressed economy, etc. Is that irrational? And a 40% increase in ICU patients will be terrifying for somebody. ...
