Do they work better for football players who don’t play football compared to football players who do play football?
Players and staff of the football programs are definitely following CDC face covering guidance as evidenced by the players very clearly regularly practicing and playing without face coverings and coaches wearing things like face shields which have never even been CDC recommended, or dick-nosing it, or pulling their coverings down to variously scream and speak at players, and thus the point I am tediously attempting to make is a very good one.
I also understand it that players not playing football are still required to sit in hours of meetings and ride busses and planes together, then swap sweat and spit with 85 people from a different school, for funsies
Imagine a world where football was cancelled this year: All of these football players, with a ton of extra free time and less access to testing, would magically become super compliant and not be at risk for covid or spreading it. That’s what this thread is going with, right?
No one wants to live like this. However, most sane and rational people realize this is the best shot at preventing deaths and prolonged further damage to the economy until the population is vaccinated. It sucks for everyone. It didnt have to be this hard. It's not a difficult concept no matter how hard you try to make it
I dont blame people for getting fed up and frustrated during all this, but when will people learn not to post emotional rants on social media. Everyone needs to blow off steam, just dont record yourself
They’ve tried that but didn’t enforce social distancing or mask usage. Would you enforce those rules and if so what would the punishment be for breaking them?
Apparently she had a similar rant about Kaepernick kneeling in 2016 and just only apologized this summer, saying she finally understands.. Hopefully it doesn’t take 4 years to realize she made another mistake. That said, she’s just a Karen chud and shame on me for giving her a little benefit of the doubt.
I just have to say, as a ride or die (literally) member of team COVID, it's been an inspiration to see how this team has battled back after a ton of adversity throughout the summer. Did we hear the noise? Sure, we heard the noise. But you know what? We held ourselves accountable. We turned off the televisions in the facility and we went to work on the task at hand: killing old people and shutting down football seasons. Did we spike the football a little early in April? Hell yes, we did. We were feeling good about ourselves: March Madness cancelled! Olympics postponed! NBA turned into the bubble boy! Little League World Series...well who gives a shit, but you get my point--we were riding high. The dogs days of summer ate our lunch, punched us right in the damn nose. We're talking summer conditioning, 7 on 7, Ohio State breaking the practice rules, all the things that herald the start of a football season. We lost our will to fight. But I've gotta give a lot credit to the leaders on this team, they are the ones that called us all together and they asked us what kind of virus we wanted to be. What kind of season did we want to have? And I'll never forget it, still brings a tear to my eye, one of our walk-ons, little Tobias Funke, he spoke up. Keep in mind, we don't have any slouches on this team. All of these guys came in highly ranked, highly touted, you know, we've got Coughing, Sneezing, Yelling at Refs without a Mask, Fecal to Oral, People from Florida, so, you know, we've got the guys. And yet, it's little Tobias, all five foot six of him, squirrly guy, yelping out "we don't want no goddam season" And by god, we almost didn't have one. If it weren't for Randy Wade and the Nebraska parents throwing a fit down at the B1G headquarters we wouldn't be having this conversation, we would have already won. But here we are, and there is work left to do. I do want to give a shout out to all the maskless retards that are helping us, sending us new recruits, every bit helps, truly. #TEAMCOVID #CoughCough #endfootball Someone get me a PS5 or I'm going to keep posting shit like this
