weird that their economy is going to dip 5% this year, it's almost like we have an interconnected global economy and that each country isn't a closed loop system with zero outside influence.
the entire set up of your post (sans brazil) is aimed directly at american attitudes pal. you blame american individualism for the outbreaks.
try and entertain the thought that while the federal response was an unmitigated disaster, people are not wrong to question current policy. As of this weekend, I saw that out of 12k positive tests among college students, there were zero known hospitalizations. Maybe instead of just thinking that america is bad because people question things, question if the ongoing narrative is perhaps wrong and no one has a clear idea of the risks of this virus and that there may be a better way.
Not only can it detect if someone is eating appetizers or an entree in NYC, it can now distinguish between a gathering of motorcycle enthusiasts from a social justice march.
ha ok pal, i sealioned you, whatever you say. hopefully i don't giraffe you or whatever other asinine term you can come up with.
you're asking me to prove a negative. there's been over 5 million positive cases, let me know when the otherwise perfectly healthy 20 year olds start dropping dead of heart failure.
also, get off the internet and live a little, there's a great big world out there.
totally agree that we're never going to have a complete picture data-wise.
it's just frustrating to me that if you dare to question the efficacy of continuing a nearly total shutdown and just suggesting that maybe there is a different safe alternative, you are immediately branded as some kind of science denying MAGA hat.
No. I want data to support that there are severe complications from covid that pose a threat for diminished quality of life for otherwise healthy 20 year olds rather than hearing about every single NCAA football player that has a heart issue that may or may not be covid related.
so we can either look at concrete data and make fact based decisions, or extrapolate every anecdote that we hear into a worst case scenario and make decisions based on that while also moving the goal posts whenever the data might suggest an alternative to our panic based decision making process.
Well at least you don't hide the fact that you make sweeping generalizations about people's beliefs.
To be clear, you believe that you already know my stances and beliefs on everything and have already refuted all of those beliefs in your head. Discourse is no longer a two way street and is now unnecessary.
This is exactly where nuance disappears and everything becomes black and white.
ha, thanks for the info but it will not impact my day at all. if people are that concerned about their internet points, i will go through this entire thread and upvote everyone to keep the self esteem up!
Ahh, so now that player safety isn't an issue we should instead ban football because you're worried that by playing football they will spread it to the general populace?
I have noticed a trend by people on the internet to first accuse everyone who disagrees with them of being like a fake or troll account.
Then they will say that you don't believe in science.
It's a shame that our political world has seeped so deeply into nonpolitical discourse that no one can ever disagree with you, and if they do, they are probably like a Russian bot.
#1 - oh god no, not my internet points. you can enjoy your internet points though, pal.
#2 - would you say that is better or worse than calling anyone who disagrees with you a 'bootlicker' aka the left's version of 'cuck'. perhaps these kids that want to play know more about the situation than random man sitting in his basement in ypsilanti.
It's not a hot take to say that he changed after that year. There is a ton of evidence for it. Amazon followed him around for an entire season and I don't really recall a speech by Jim where he didn't seem distant and just kind of out of it.
At Stanford he was painting his face with blood to fire the team up. That guy is not who is coaching Michigan presently.
Buddy....Marcus isn't sitting in the corner of the junior high dance twiddling his thumbs and waiting for his growth spurt - he's a grown man and he's fat
The vast majority of fully grown adults are 100% capable of controlling their weight, they either choose not to or are too lazy to care.
Appreciate all that Brian does but this theory that we leave plays in the bag for OSU and other big games is absolute nonsense.
It's clear that Jim does not want a real passing game and thinks he can win against elite talent mashing his running back into a wall of 4 and 5 stars.
Furthermore, why is Jake McCurry - a walk on wide receiver - getting meaningful snaps in this game at our deepest position full of 4 and 5 star talent?
Didn't know if it's confusing, but to clarify, no redshirt for Milton this year and then do it next year would make sense if Shea is indeed planning on returning.

there's not much that i enjoy more than stereotyping large groups of people to fit my preconceptions and reinforce my world view

thank you for the advice.
fortunately, i do not divine my self worth from someone's idea of me on an anonymous internet message board.

how long have you been an epidemiologist?
This virus continues to astound me.
Not only can it detect if someone is eating appetizers or an entree in NYC, it can now distinguish between a gathering of motorcycle enthusiasts from a social justice march.
Truly incredible.
Now explain to me how France is in the midst of their largest outbreak or does this game only work when we want to hate on America?
I'm starting to enjoy the half life of people that weaponize science denial when these things happen now

can you guarantee that half these kids' brains won't be mashed potatoes by the time they're 60?
is there any data for that or just anecdotes?
There are 104 million Americans aged 24 and under.
320 have died from a cause 'involving COVID'.
320 / 104,000,000 = 0.0003077%
is this just a rough draft of the final column?
I didn't see you call any of the players that expressed a desire to play "bootlickers".
I edited my above comment but I do not see any benefit in furthering this discussion.

'has killed two michigan stadiums full of people'
I agree that that is a terrible visual image but it is also clearly done to manipulate people.
cigarettes kill 500k americans every year, are you out campaigning against those as well?
we can use science to mitigate a lot of risk and still go about some semblance of a normal life.
or it seems a lot of people would prefer to live at the extremes and vilify anyone who dares question them.
ha, thanks for the info but it will not impact my day at all. if people are that concerned about their internet points, i will go through this entire thread and upvote everyone to keep the self esteem up!
ok, at this point it is clear that you will only hear what you want to hear.
I'm not sure how much more serious I could be than to call something a national tragedy.
I said it is a national tragedy, are you dense?
We are now at the broad strokes name calling portion of the debate.
I don't think you'll find one person here who denies that our response to the pandemic and it's results are a national tragedy.
That does not mean that football couldn't have safely progressed.
Please stop with the sensationalized generalizations and name calling.
I went through the thread and can't find one person who is advocating to not wear masks and open all of the bars.
Just because it's possible to have a football season, doesn't mean that people think we should end all preventative measures.
It's also disingenuous to cherry pick data. Daily deaths are up from June but also still down from April when the virus was much less pervasive.
It helps no one when you think in extremes.

It's becoming more clear that the focus of the blog has become a tool to virtue signal.
I get it, you don't like the facts so you attack the messenger. Best of luck to you.
Mate, it's not a 'gut feeling'.
It's a statistical near impossibility.
You like the odds of lightning?
Also, 'random doctor' is a very disingenuous way to describe a professor of cardiology discussing research about heart disease.
Also also, you're a clown.
yikes, no one tell woke Ace
let's just continue to panic and call anyone who disagrees with us bootlicking science deniers...
EDIT: all individuals who 'weaponized science denial' may ask for forgiveness in this thread. thank you.

"PAY THE PLAYERS!", they scream as they go on year like 15 of profiting off of those same players.
For someone so sleepy all of the time, Ace is amazingly woke.

Why does Ace retweet this dumb shit?

You buried the lede, mate.
He connected the coronavirus to abortions.
I'm unclear on what you're arguing - whether he did it intentionally or not? Or his reasons for intentionally changing his demeanor?
It's not a hot take to say that he changed after that year. There is a ton of evidence for it. Amazon followed him around for an entire season and I don't really recall a speech by Jim where he didn't seem distant and just kind of out of it.
At Stanford he was painting his face with blood to fire the team up. That guy is not who is coaching Michigan presently.
I don't know Lloyd, the French are assholes.
Michigan is Arsenal and it's not even close
This one really threw me off haha
Buddy....Marcus isn't sitting in the corner of the junior high dance twiddling his thumbs and waiting for his growth spurt - he's a grown man and he's fat
The vast majority of fully grown adults are 100% capable of controlling their weight, they either choose not to or are too lazy to care.
1:06 to go in the first half. 3rd and 9 and we have Black, McCurry and Bell out there.
3rd and 9 with 1:06 to go in the 2nd quarter at our own 47 down 15.
We had 3 WR's on the field - Black, McCurry, and Bell.
In what world do the coaches think this is an appropriate personnel group?
Jimmy's CTE has caught up to him and he decided to run OSU's plays with the scout team .
Jim and Pepper would rather give the opportunities to McCurry and basketball player Bell to prove they are smarter than everyone else.
Appreciate all that Brian does but this theory that we leave plays in the bag for OSU and other big games is absolute nonsense.
It's clear that Jim does not want a real passing game and thinks he can win against elite talent mashing his running back into a wall of 4 and 5 stars.
Furthermore, why is Jake McCurry - a walk on wide receiver - getting meaningful snaps in this game at our deepest position full of 4 and 5 star talent?
Didn't know if it's confusing, but to clarify, no redshirt for Milton this year and then do it next year would make sense if Shea is indeed planning on returning.
This Milton redshirt talk is confusing me.
If Shea is coming back next year (which he should), a healthy DCaf is his backup and Milton redshirts next year .
How do you plan on watching this game in 4K?
It's not a coin flip decision
