Let me guess you only read the first paragraph No I read the whole thing. Show me the Doctor quote. Just wait until your players start giving it to the coaches, their relatives, etc.

I would also like to read the firsthand reports from SEC doctors who think playing football during the pandemic is safe. linkWait. You think an athletic trainer is a doctor? Holy crap. That’s sad.

Quite a leap you make there. From question to accusation/allegations. The anecdotal sports radio story is spurious at best. Who has ever known a sports radio blowhard to spin? ASDs and VSDs are actually fairly common at birth and can heal themselves after birth. My Dad has had a long stint as an endurance athlete (triathlete, marathons) with a hole is his heart. I didn’t mean to mistake you post. If you were simply asking a question I’m sorry for the mischaracterization. However I saw one of your fellow Beaver fans has went ahead with the accusation that the doctors are being influenced by the athletic staff. That is a fairly serious accusation that I would never throw around. Especially if I lived pretty much halfway across the country from the region. Even if it was right down the road, I’d still call out any doctor that would think that playing football amid a pandemic is a good idea. Here’s a link for you with REAL doctors this time. When NCAA’s own corona virus expert and a pair of infectious disease docs say it’s like the sinking of the Titanic, yeah, I’d like to know just how the SEC docs reason that it’s a good idea to play. Otherwise, I assume it’s their best interest to go with the money. www.nytimes.com/2020/08/13/sports/ncaafootball/coronavirus-college-football-acc-sec-big-12.html

Let me guess you only read the first paragraph Sorry about that fella....there’s some pretty one dimension folks that like to chime in....sort of their way or the highway type Yes, folks are of two minds on this board. A large contingent of us believe playing sports in the pandemic endangers the kids, the refs, the coaches, and others. We don't see sports as a critical need during a pandemic.
A vocal group of folks here believe (with more colorful language) that the Pac 12 specifically and the Big Ten by implication made a huge mistake and will never recover and are parts of the female anatomy for not playing.
Nothing "my way or the highway" about it. We are more convinced by science and we hold a greater conviction to the safety of the players, their families, and the public at large than perhaps you do.
I keep an open mind. I'm still waiting for articles from doctors that say that playing football this year is a good idea...because it's easy to find articles of doctors saying don't do it.

Like the fact that 96% of people that catch covid recover and are just fine, and if you specifically at college aged kids that number is higher. At what point will be be able to get back to normal? Covid is never going away. It will always be here. People will die from it every year and people will recover from it every year.

He’s a public educator and bureaucrat. So hopefully he is better than most, which isn’t saying much. Let’s just hope he doesn’t send out his lieutenants to confiscate conservative newspapers on campus like his predecessor did in 2008. You may be disappointed then. Most likely

Covid is never going away. It will always be here. People will die from it every year and people will recover from it every year. Fact? You sure about that? I'm not. linkOne thing is for sure, the longer we politicize wearing masks, and try to push the envelope the longer we will be on the wrong side of this fight. If we had done the right thing in the beginning and shut down hard UNTIL it was safe to open up we might not even be having this conversation right now. We didn't. We're now screwed. The schools that have tried to open up campus are immediately becoming ground zero for new epicenters of the disease which is only serving to extend the time we all have to keep this up. That is happening now. Right in front of us. As fact. We all want football back. How we get there is where "we" disagree, but the early returns from schools bringing back students are not promising. Oubreaks and shutdowns galore. Doesn't look good for fall football, no matter where you are in the country.

Due to the fluid nature of the COVID-19 pandemic, scientific understanding along with guidelines and recommendations may have changed since the original publication date.” I love a good CYA. So um your article did nothing to say the 96% number was wrong. It just says they “think” the COVID will have longer lasting affects.

I can link articles for days about the ongoing symptoms they are discovering that they are learning about right now. Would you like to provide something that backs up your 96% are completely fine claim?
