Hate to say it kids...but we ain’t playin’...

- Start date
Those sports can isolate in a bubble better than CFB...maybe there will be some ideas that come out of it, if those seasons are going successfully...
either that or we’ll all have gotten it and moved on by fall at the rate it is going...
this week, COVID finally moved into sadgator’s inner-circle of associates he interacts with...only a matter of time....

CDC said this morning the actual infection rate is probably 6 to 14 times greater than whats reported. That means 20-40m people probably have contracted it. What makes covid dangerous is that the overwhelming majority who get it have no symptoms. A friend of mine tested positive a few weeks back, so out of curiosity I went down and got tested. Bingo...positive. I never had a single symptom. I self quarantined and then retested 14 days later negative. Again, the key is we need to make sure and protect those most vulnerable. Just not sure how we completely do that. I volunteered for an antibody test at Mayo on Wednesday.
...and not surprisingly, mrs. sadgator said she will self-quarantine away from sadgator...
“...yeah, ok...baby...whatever...”. lol...
it’s been like 25 years of self-quarantine....

The CDC hasn't been exactly a trusted source of accurate information throughout this mess. Here's a short article explaining how they got in wrong on 5 different Covid-19 issues. https://justthenews.com/video/5-times-cdc-got-it-wrong-coronvirus
That in no way suggest this virus hasn't been very serious all along. The recent resurgence of documented cases is extremely concerning. But the death rate is actually turning out to be much lower than projected and anticipated. This article from the New York Post says it realistically is about 0.26% of those affected, with the vast majority of fatalities being old people (over 80) with other serious health conditions. https://nypost.com/2020/06/25/getting-realistic-about-the-coronavirus-death-rate/
So while the number of confirmed cases is going up primarily because of more testing combined with some people ignoring common sense safety measures, way fewer people are dying than the original "experts" thought would happen. And that should be a cause for celebration, as the article suggests. However, if the number of cases continues to increase or stays at a high level, it certainly will decrease the chances of football being played in the fall regardless of how much we all want it to happen. I still think it will, but certainly understand those who have ever-growing doubts.
All this hoopla over a virus slightly more dangerous than the flu. Lets play
sadgator sincerely appreciates it, but sadgator fears that not even Devine intervention can help at this point...
Please. mrs. sadgator invented social distancing years ago...
You're got a unique sense of humor, man. Wonder what you look like and would enjoy meeting you one day, political differences aside.
sadgator‘s actually just a pretty regular dude...nothing special...the picture of Wyatt Sexton is remarkably and ironically similar, which is part of the reason it is so funny to sadgator and his friends who lurk on this board (just age it up to 50)...works hard..not a jerk...not a creep...mindful of others’ feelings...ok parent, tries hard...good heart..,probably has a cocktail or two too many every now and again...addicted to a sports message board for some reason...loves the Gators...
Pippa and sadgator will be married 24 years this year...lots of love...lots of life...lots of aggravation both ways...two children we’ve both exhaustedly hover parented for WAY too long...
which explains a big part of it...
Told @bradleygator this here back in March, he said crazy talk.
And it has NOTHING to do with hoax flu, it's all political and will continue to be political.
A couple weeks ago it was reported MLB was on the verge of a deal between owners and players to play an abbreviated season. Media said this was first real movement and a deal appeared to be imminent.
What story broke the following morning? 5 Phillies test positive for hoax flu during training camp!
All talk of the season immediately died. This is how the left is going to kill the college and NFL seasons. All they have to do is get ONE TEAM at EITHER LEVEL to say it's too 'dangerous' for them to play, and the entire season is done for everyone.
Yall wanted the fear mongering, you embraced the fear mongering. Well not get ready to own sitting on the couch this fall watching ESPN Classic.
Cause that's the only way any of us will see a football season this Fall. Hope it was worth it just to try to make Trump look bad.
Oh I've been there...like I have an addiction. lol
Good thing not to takes oneself too seriously and to be able to laugh at yourself. You set the example here. This board is a nice distraction, but sometimes gets way too intense (and I've been guilty from time to time). I'll just be glad when sports is back and the bulk of the discussion can be focused on Gator athletics and not all the collateral junk. Congrats on the lengthy marriage. My wife & I will hit 45 years in September. Two adult, self-supporting kids with 4 young grandkids. Life is good.
If you told me we could have football back but willie had to be our head coach i would say yes.... Im that desperate

...appreciate your comments, but there are SO many great genuine posters here, including yourself...it is what makes this Board so much fun (especially when we actually have sports to discuss)...
...and sadgator does like to pick up the tab...so if we ever get the chance, the round will definitely be on me...and sadgator would welcome it...
oh and yes...Pippa really is hot...it’s not a goof...picture an awesome mash-up of the best of Pippa Middleton, Jules Asner (the first “Wild On” E girl), and Sandra Bullock...there you go, mrs. sadgator...it is part of what drives sadgator completely insane... thoughtful too...totally married up...
This is what I have been saying for a while. I suspect random games will be cancelled in the middle of the season because a team has a bunch of positive tests. It will suck if it is a big rivalry game.
Have to enjoy what you got...I'm the biggest dummy on this board.
No we aren't....UGA fans go to hell and some FSU fans (if they have anymore) show up you're welcome for now...unless you get to cocky. Good thing is we got Paco now.

A lot of people don't remember Jim Jones, my man.GN79, do you know who that is in the picture?
Jim Jones was living a socialist utopia - complete with religious brainwashing. Sounds like the left today haha
But wait, I thought all the religious were Republican? But agree about the brainwashing.
Mmm I like to think you're better than that.
We both know that a religion is a set of foundational beliefs that people not only adhere to, but often times attach their entire mindset to.
Please convince me that Global Warming isn't the "religion" of some people.
You're so frustrated at this point with many of us, it might be time to take a step back.
Almost correct.
The good religious are republicans - the bad ones are democrat lol. Am I doing this right?
