No 2020 College Football :-(

[waks]

im guessing the athletes will have a lower risk of Covid infection if there is a season then if there isn't. Does any one write that story? could it be that a college fb season actually reduces the risk of covid infection for those participating? why isn't there a discussion?

Um....wut?  Nobody writes that story because only an idiot would write that story.

I don't know if anyone in the world wants college football to be played more than you, bud. You've been on a fascinating journey with this thread.

This is hilarious coming from a Clemson player. Dabo was an earlier leader in the “we’ll just get through this and kick it in the teeth” & the real source of all these issues is not enough people have Jesus & traveling during quarantine rather than promoting social distancing & wearing masks.

Dodd has been one of the CononaBro writers who has been walking the edge of openly wanting the season to be cancelled.

So people don't die or have long term health issues.

It's kind of ironic that the person who coined the term "coronabros" and makes the claim that people are cheering for the virus more than anyone probably stands to gain the most if college football is cancelled or postponed. And the traditional sportswriters being accused of cheering for the virus probably stand to lose the most

[sonofdaxjones]

LOL, the sportswriters will have volumes of things to write about in terms of speculation about what's going to happen next, and to repeatedly opine on how things have been handled.

Dennis Dodd writes what?  1 or 2 columns a week during the season and most of them are lame AF anyway.   When it comes to writing about the actual business of college athletics Dennis Dodd is unequivocally an uneducated and ill informed dolt.

Bucket . . . why are people going to die?   Players have died playing football, yet every week during the season, collectively 1000's of game are played all over the country.   People who are afraid of dying playing football are told, "well, then the game probably isn't for  you".   Players are maimed, turned into paraplegics,  quadriplegics and have their life potentially shortened with every hit and blow to the head,  yet football is still the biggest game in America.   

Now were supposed to believe that people are utterly incapable of following any protocols? 

P5 football players are in the top 1%, if not the top .5% of the  world in terms of health care access, oversight and care.

Dax, you do understand that rona is contagious and a broken neck is not, right?

[DaBigTrain]

Incredible.

[sonofdaxjones]

Dax, you do understand that rona is contagious and a broken neck is not, right?

Yet football players face the reality of a broken neck on every single play of every single game and practice.   Haven't heard of a game or practice called yet for potential of being turned into a vegetable.

The mortality rate of that age group rivals that of a bad flu and pneumonia season, yet we keep right on playing the games during a bad flu seasons.  In this state, the mortality rate of college age is .2%. P5 football players have access to better healthcare than 99% of American's.

I wonder why I'm generally allowed to do my regular daily stuff but teams of football players that will play other teams of college football players in one of their locations aren't going to be allowed the same.

Look at this idiot.

NFL Star Cameron Smith Needs Open-Heart Surgery After Positive COVID-19 Test.
Yea, it doesn't cause any problems; it's just like the flu.  This is the kind of crap the college AD's don't want to deal with, as in liability for long term heath issues.

LOL, people can have serious complications from practically any illness.   

Just the Flu kills people.  Some years, just the flu kills tens of thousands of people.

In 9 hours, on campus class starts at a bunch of schools.

Why can't we just surround the fields with grocery shelves to stave off the virus? 

[sonofdaxjones]

Again, P5 athletes; in most cases recipients of better medical oversight and care than 99% plus of the rest of the world.

I'm pretty sure he was born with this (or a statement from Cameron made it appear that way).

If they cancel football they need to cancel all on campus classes as well.

If they're afraid they can't handle football with the players under strident healthcare oversite and if they're afraid they can't handle 25% of the normal crowd with months to prepare.   Then they've clearly not fully prepared to have on campus classes.

absolutely.

and it's really mumped up that they waited until pretty much everyone has started practice to call it as if they didn't know what would happen. This just keeps people from transferring if the SEC decides they're gonna play. I'm guessing the in-person classes will follow suit after they have deposits and some dorm payments.

Difference with on campus classes is that almost all major universities provide a virtual only option so essentially 100% of students can not show up and the show goes on. Can’t have football with zero players.

The idea that anyone NEEDS a season is pretty mumped up.
