Topic: College football stars hold video call to further unite, issue statement

[Big City]

In a statement released on social media just before midnight ET on Sunday and shared by dozens of college players, the group asked for uniform health and safety protocols for dealing with the coronavirus pandemic and laid out their intentions to form a college football players association in the future. The statement also said players should have the chance to opt out of the upcoming football season and that they should be guaranteed another year of eligibility whether they play this season or not

These are indeed strange times when college athletes look to unionize.

The problem today is leaders cave from sports to politics. This is all getting out of hand in all aspects of life.

Exactly. The magic bullet and it would have all been gone by now. But now it’s increasing again in other countries imagine that? Wonder by the end of the year if it reaches the amount of car accident deaths we have in WV yearly?

These are indeed crazy times, I lived in California for several years and moved to NC and the worst earthquake I experienced was yesterday in NC when my entire house shook and it knocked things off of shelves and walls...

Tell Sweden what?

That the 30% of brainwashed people in this country couldn’t do the smart thing and that if they had we would have sports this fall?

Glad you know that for a fact!!! Is that why you are so pissed because no football? I figured it was loss of life?

There weren't 164,900 auto accidents in WV isn any year, there have been that many Covid deaths and we're still counting.

Just when it seems you can't make a less informed comment than you last one, you top yourself and  demonstrate you have nothing to contribute to any serious discussion.

Are you insane? There has been 141 deaths in WV. Around 400 car deaths a year in WV. What are you talking about?

So are you as terrified driving in WV as you are getting covid? Seems a car is more dangerous to me in WV.

The US has failed in its response, collectively, is the reason there will be no season.  If in February, we had realized the possibility existed for 250K+ deaths existed instead of "15 cases going down to zero"...we could have saved CFB this year.

Trevor Lawrence, Clemson's QB, made a good argument today about playing FB this fall:

-If CFB were cancelled or postponed until spring, the players & their close people would be at more risk going home and/or staying because they would hang with their friends & family with little supervision from coaches & the schools. In SC particularly & in most of the states their players are from, that's a very valid consideration.

Oh...you mean back when Trump was banning travel from China while the liberal leaders were calling him a racist for doing so?

People throw around the word Liberal without knowing what it means.  But I digress.  The real reason why Trump was ridiculed for the China travel ban, because the cases in the East and Northeast were coming from Europe and he ignored that like he ignores every other fact. 

We have an emotionally adolescent con man and legitimate imbecile running the country.  If Obama would have done a smidgeon of Agent Orange's misdeeds, the heads of the so called conservatives and fascists would have exploded long before now. To make matters worse, we have no idea the extent of damage this genius has caused to our institutions and we won't know in full until he's out of office and is holed up in Mara Largo or Moscow.  I'm betting on the latter.

Oh? Kind like H1N1? Get serious. Obama sucked and Trump is your President.

Trump did not ban all travel from China. 
Trump’s order did not fully “close” the U.S. off to China, as he asserts. It temporarily barred entry by foreign nationals who had traveled in China within the previous 14 days, with exceptions for the immediate family of U.S. citizens and permanent residents. Americans returning from China were allowed back after enhanced screening at select ports of entry and for 14 days afterward. But U.S. scientists say screenings can miss people who don’t yet show symptoms of COVID-19; while symptoms often appear within five or six days of exposure, the incubation period is 14 days.

I get tired of the phrase "Trump is your President". Trump is The President, not a damn king! He rules the land but as a citizen of the United States, so do I. So do all of us. Forgetting that is where we first went wrong.
