    With no crowd, would they even bother with the National Anthem?

    They NEVER televise it, so what would be the point?

    The percentage of positive tests are very telling numbers. CDC, John Hopkins, etc says 5% or less is “acceptable”. Anything higher is a problem. US 7 day moving average is at about 7.5%. TN recently reported 5 consecutive days under 10% for the first time in a while.
    (At one point I believe it was Arizona that was at 20%-25% positives. Not good. I think it has come down.)

    That sickening thud of when Henry plows into Jaguars’ defenders is going to be super audible now, silver lining

    I was just thinking about this. This is going to absolutely negate home field advantage.

    Say we are done 10 and Henry, or Brown snag a big play and a key first down. Really going to be a whole new game this season, imo.

    I’m so sick of all of this Covid BS. I’m not saying that there isn’t a bug going around that for a very small portion of the population could be problematic. But that’s a very small portion of the population. For everyone one else, let us get back to normal. People in the higher risk category like my in-laws or stepdad should take precautions.

    Here is a Stanford study by a well respected epidemiologist, early on he was saying that the projected death rate was overblown (plus he’s Greek, so you know he’s good at math and science...lol). For most people 70 and under, the risks are about the same as the flu.

    For healthy people under 50, the death rate is virtually zero. For kids under 17, the common flu killed about 5x more than Covid. 190 kids under 17 died from the flu this year.

    Enough is enough, let the 99% of the population that has virtually zero risk get on with their lives. Let us go to a freaking football game if we want to for crying out loud.

    Way cases are going and in the deaths and cases, it would be to nobody's surprise.

    I am not a nut job saying it is not happening. i was just saying overall numbers don't tell the whole picture. I think we should have locked down hard to start. I was just speaking from the perspective of the numbers presented.
