Twins deciding to boycott the game. What an absolute shame of a decision.

Well, they made a mistake in not protecting vulnerable pops, but I doubt they are unsatisfied with their overall approach. Not much difference between us and them.

No, you are excusing the ineffective lockdowns. Most people took huge precautions.

Sweden’s GDP is down, likely mainly because of decreased exports, I haven’t looked closely. A global slowdown impacts everyone regardless. but the US has destroyed so many small businesses with the lockdowns. I would imagine Sweden doesn’t have nearly the same level of damage.

Hey, if you have all the answers, by all means let us know. The predictions from the "experts" have been wildly wrong. It's reasonable to look for alternate theories. The theories I'm putting out are from doctors, immunologists, etc, not made up from left field. Fine with me, let's start...

literally antithetical to our founding document.

yes, thank you I agree, although I think your death rate is still too high. My grandma just died apparently from COVID, and she has been quarantined in her nursing home room for 6 months. No family in, no visits with friends, just the occasional facetime. Still got it. Students can all...

which narrative? if you want to argue that we should quarantine the sick, I would take no issue. There are more results from quarantines and shutdowns than reduction of spread. It's not even clear that those actions are effective at their intended result, but when you add in the...

The PCR tests have a history of unreliability, and as far as I can tell, have never been used as a baseline test for a virus of this magnitude. Is it false positive or false negative? Both have bad implications. Here's a New England Journal of Medicine take...

I think there are all kinds of problems with testing in young people, and I suspect a lot of false positives. Were these people tested because they presented symptoms, or did they basically test everyone regardless? We also need to know how sick these kids are. Not at all? A little...

this is the correct question.

No one really acted like that back in the 50s, it's all fake. There was no difference in society then vs now. But RIP to a great character on a great show from a great era, whoops, I wasn't supposed to say that.

Dew Treadway is not in my top 10 players that will be a key to the defense. Maybe as a leader, but not on the field. Schad is more important at DT. Boye is the key at DL. One of the redshirt freshmen at LB will be a key. And Nubin might be the key to the defense.

Possible that his last name boosted his ranking a bit?

RIP Fred. Just a gem in every role. And really, not even acting, that was probably just him.

I'd expect him to post those numbers if he missed half the season because of injury. He's a lock 1000 yd receiver IMO. Great hands, was really good on slants, and showed off some breakaway speed. But his tunnel screen weaving thru traffic against PSU was the highlight of the year. He...

I feel like JMS broke out last year. Mafe for sure. On offense BSF seems like the most likely candidate.

RIP

I’ve been on a roll with great movies lately: Richard Jewell - superb performances, great story 5/5 1917 - non stop great pace, beautiful images, so so story 4/5 JoJo Rabbit - had no interest in watching, wow was I wrong. Fantastic. 5/5 Knives Out - Outstanding mystery, great plot characters...

That’s all true. Might this be an advantage for us? A lot more potential endorsement dollars here than Iowa City.
