Wait, let's hear him out. I mean our supreme leader did say that the virus would 'just disappear', and he knows what he is talking about when it comes to most things, right? It's not like he proposed injecting UV rays or bleach into people, or something crazy like that.
Trevor Lawrence made an interesting argument. Basically, 'people are going to keep getting it, and we have just as much chance getting it if we play than if we don't play, so we should play'
I don't think this exactly meets the muster of a legitimate syllogism or anything, nor do I know what sort of data or information he is basing that on (besides making broad assumptions), but hell, it sounds pretty good to me.
I mean, so what if a few guys out of thousands get really sick and hospitalized, or God forbid they should perish; or if a player spreads it to a person with an underlying condition or a parent/grandparent. Only 80+ year olds die from this, and, let's be honest, those people aren't that important. It's not like the US has a much higher share of fatalities in the 50-70 age range than any other country, or anything like that, right? Plus death is part of life, people die every day. It's the cost of business, and we have to get the machine running again. Toe needs to meet leather, AT ALL COSTS!
