    And on the other side of that coin, it's been reported that of the 1.4 million ppl in Palm Beach County, only 1200 coronavirus tests have been conducted.  So under this "allow some places to open up" theory, it would likely be considered a low risk county.  Lord knows how many infected untested people from that county would spread the virus.

    Those people already are doing the right thing. Unfortunately it’s the 1000’s of people who have no idea they are infected that are spreading the disease.
    I hear ya when it comes to the economy Roy. It’s a huge problem and something needs to be done.
    I just don’t think there is an easy answer here. Every idea that has been floated about has massive problems that come along with it. 
    This is new territory and I’m not sure there is one right answer.

    Times have changed from the plague and the 1918 flu epidemic. Population density is much higher. Personal interaction is much higher. Cross border travel is much higher. The assumptions from 100 or 700 years ago do not apply as accurately to the current time.

    Round of 32 action starts in 30 min here.  If we win, we play the winner of Winthrop/ETSU.  Great draw for SLU to make a Cinderella run.

    is it weird that i match up big life events to what was going on with the billikens? i vividly remember watching this game while drinking bourbon and texting my now-husband; this was the year we met.

    The only difference I can see between my description of Bell and yours is that mine was actually more detailed.  So that tells me that it wasn't really the assessment of his athletic ability that people objected to.  It's that certain words trigger negative images. 
    In your mind you were just using troll as a short-hand for calling him big and heavy-footed, which is obvious to anyone who has ever watched him play.  Unfortunately, troll is also synomonous with "ugly" which is one of the worst things you can call somebody in an image-conscious society.   Once folks got triggered by that word, they weren't going to listen to anything else you had to say.   
    Even really bright people, like the ones we have on this board, can have a blind spot when it comes to vocabulary and context.  Especially in a society with so many different cultural perspectives, where we don't give people outside our social circle the benefit of the doubt.
    Note that I could introduce the term "bully ball" with barely any pushback.  By the end of season the board was celebrating it.  While our parents told us we shouldn't bully people, in the world of sports and business, bullies rule.  In the context that adult sports fans care about, being a bully is a good thing.

    Remember when I got flack for saying “Fox News crap”?  Not surprisingly, I was right about Fox News.

    @HenryB is a known troll.  Let’s just ignore that poster and all s/he entails.

    Lol, all you proved is I was correct. The average age of those who die is 80, you also lied. I never mentioned China once, and Italy is not a comparable comparison as evidenced by FACTS WHICH I PROVIDED. As for making this political, you would have to be a complete nitwit to say politics aren’t coming in to play. You deliberately lied about our President’s response because of your well known disdain. Oh, and as for name calling, you’re  becoming almost as proficient as you are with your well appreciated recruiting analysis. Sadly your ego sometimes clouds your ability to accept other’s views...
