This election is fucked. Will expose the American public for what we already know they are, a bunch of clowns. I don't see how anyone in their right mind votes for Hillary or trump and I'm positive one of them will be president. She should be in jail and he's a buffoon And you thought the last election was fucked.

Nebraska got slapped down pretty hard. But I have a feeling this may be setting up Nebraska's departure in the next few years. I can see them going back to the Big 12. Interesting. I can still envision 4 16 team super conferences broken down by region.

I agree with you, Pollux. Things are rough. I don’t know if we’re going to have football or not based on what MLB is going through. B10 just released a shortened schedule. Conference only games. This followed the UConn announcement cancelling the season. We'll see. NCAA is strangely quit right now on all of this.

Interesting study coming out of USC and The California Health Dept. Their study claims that there are almost 500,000 people in the greater LA area that have Covid-19 and are undiagnosed. If this is true, than the death rate for Covid-19 is much, much lower than anyone has been reporting. Here is why: We almost certainly know every case of Codid-19 deaths (and as Hoff was saying, they could even be inflating that number). But if the common denominator is much higher (total cases of Covid-19), than the death rate is significantly lower. There is a big difference between 100 deaths/10,000 cases and 100 deaths/500,000 cases. Stanford and Massachusetts General studies have reached the same conclusions. The infection rate is higher than thought, so the death rate is much lower even before factoring over reporting deaths.

FUN FACTS: 99% those who "died from covid" had 2 to 3 underlying diseases 70% were OVER THE AGE OF 80 with underlying health issues 62% were "SUSPECTED to have died from CV19" but were NEVER TESTED Yes but you can also get it and die if you’re not old or have an underlying condition. Even if there’s a lesser percentage that doesn’t mean you should treat each day like there’s no threat and not be proactive. You can also die in car wrecks. Ban cars? You can never ban all threats. Handle them intelligently.

I am not a Whitmer fan, but I think it is important to get the facts straight: www.yahoo.com/news/fact-check-michigan-gov-gretchen-215759038.htmlThe state's FAQ on the order says, “While the order places certain limits on how goods are sold, it does not ban Michiganders from buying any item, including flags.” A representative from the state’s press office told USA TODAY that Whitmer did not ban the sale of US flags. The order notes large stores must close off areas of stores meant for carpeting, flooring, furniture, gardening and paint. The limits apply only to in-person sales and do not apply to stores with less than 50,000 square feet. Large stores are further required to implement measures that promote social distancing. The order encourages businesses to “consider establishing curbside pickup to reduce in-store traffic” and “explore alternatives to lines, including by allowing customers to wait in their cars for a text message or phone call.” “We’ve seen misinformation circulating, so I’d like to be very clear — the Stay Home, Stay Safe executive order does not ban the purchasing of car seats for children,” Whitmer tweeted Sunday. So, you're not banning a specific product, but you are just banning access to those products within the stores that sell them. Yeah, huge difference there. /sarc/

Do you really think there is a reduced risk in a grocery store or one section of a big box store than any other? If you are out and about, the probability of contact remains the same. it's like thinking that if you go to the baseball field in a thunderstorm, you chances of getting hit by lightening are less than if you are at the soccer pitch. Makes zero statistical sense whatsoever. The only way to get to zero risk is not leave the house at all. And again, how is leaving liquor stores and pot dispensaries less of a risk than a garden center? The decisions are arbitrary, and noxious to the our rights. There is no reason they could not have encouraged the high risk (elderly/co-morbidity) to stay home, and let everyone else decide what is in their best interests. If you want to take your chance, leave it up to the individual. Instead, the sheeple not only accept this unconstitutional stay at home, some seem to be endorsing it. Enjoy your third world dictatorship. What’s in your best interest isn’t necessarily what’s in everyone’s best interest. You aren’t the only one at risk because you decided to take the risk. If you get it the people you give it to get it because you decided to take the risk. A lot of people have recovered but there’s also something like a 4.8% death rate. We’re all in this together and if we don’t work together this thing will spike. Pot sales are supposed to be curbside only. When you buy booze you run in, grab it, and get back out. These are in place probably because if you’re stuck at home you should be able to make the most of it. There’s no tanks in the street or Marshall Law here. The order is somewhat restrictive but nobody is sealing people into their homes. There is a more visible police presence but they aren’t stopping people or harassing them. You have to decide to make the right choice and by your expressed opinion here it sounds like you want to be part of the problem instead of the solution. The death rate is .2%, with a high incidence of co-morbidity. Read the states. CDC admits they are overstating deaths. Not a patient dies of a heart attack, and tests positive, it's categorized as a Corona death. Let 5he individual decide what is in their and their families' best interest.

"Gardening" isn't banned, but you have been denied access to the essentials for starting a garden, i.e. plants and seeds, fertlizer, soil, etc. At the same time, liquor stores and pot dispensaries are open. How does that make any sense in the short term or long term? I believe Freddie spoke to that. You can’t get the supplies from a big box store because you should be getting in, getting groceries, and getting out. Not browsing around other areas of the store and risking contracting the virus any further. You can still purchase through online orders or from some smaller stores. Just like one person per family should be shopping and not a group. Don’t bring the kids along. People who were bored at home were going to the garden/patio section and hanging out on the furniture for something to do. As with other areas of these orders it got more restrictive because people aren’t doing what they’re supposed to.

Why is gardening banned? Seriously? You can do that in your own yard away from people. Golf requires no contact with other people. The bans are random and non-sensical. You can buy pot, lottery tickets and booze, but not vegetable seeds? C'mon. That is stupidly insane. It's safer to grow your own food than go to the store and buy it. Less contact with any potential contamination sites/points. The only food handler is you, and you have no contact with the public by going to a store. I haven't seen where gardening is specifically banned, rather the gardening center at Walmart/Lowes/Meijer is closed. It's not ideal, but you can order seeds or buy them from smaller retailers. We have a seed store in my town that is still operating. I believe we can still mow our lawn, just that landscapers are considered a non-essential business....just like barbers and dentists (my kid needs an orthodontist appt. soon!) I agree with you about people planting their own food, and would like to see more of that even in non pandemic times. "Gardening" isn't banned, but you have been denied access to the essentials for starting a garden, i.e. plants and seeds, fertlizer, soil, etc. At the same time, liquor stores and pot dispensaries are open. How does that make any sense in the short term or long term?

What do you guys think about the shelter in place order, no golf, no boating/fishing, no gardening? I see plenty of people griping about it and the Governor on social media. This order isn’t a vacation. It’s in place to halt the spread of a virus that can be deadly. 1600 dead out of what? 25,000 cases in Michigan so far? People have their priorities fucked up. They did an in car drive up protest at the capital today because they believe the order is too strict. If selfish ass holes hadn’t ignored the first order this one wouldn’t have had to be so strict. People saying their civil liberties are being infringed in need to take a time out. Why is gardening banned? Seriously? You can do that in your own yard away from people. Golf requires no contact with other people. The bans are random and non-sensical. You can buy pot, lottery tickets and booze, but not vegetable seeds? C'mon. That is stupidly insane.

I don't have any problem with, and totally understand both the amount of the salary and how/when he left Colorado. I think the media is making Tucker out to be a villain. The only part I do not like (and I think we would all agree), is let the kids transfer. I like the idea of players getting one "free" transfer without penalty. I agree with the transfer. Stupid that coaches can walk, but the athletes are captive. There should be a window after a coach leaves for students to transfer out without penalty.

Mel Tucker. 5.5 million a year for a 5-7 record as a head coach. Lmao good luck with that sparty. It was his first year at a very down program. Colorado is not a good team. Not surprising. His salary is not top in the BIG. I think I read it 5th or 6th highest.

Looks like a decent resume. Just read that Nick Saban put MSU on the his trail. Interesting. He worked for Saban at MSU and was with Saban at Bama as an Assistant Head Coach. Hopefully this works out.
