Memphis Tigers Football

[WorldSeriesChamps2015]

After last Saturday's game vs Arkansas State, Memphis players went on to celebrate their victory over Arkansas State and did it on a party bus. 20 players tested positive for the Ronaz and 20 more are in quarantine. WTG guys!!! That awesome victory was worth!! I know Trump Supporters, they wont even feel it.

This won’t be the last incident like this. College students gonna college student. As more and more games get canceled, all the people complaining about the Big Ten waiting until spring will eventually understand the decision.

Regardless of where they got it, they’ve got it. And they won’t be the last team to get it.

Correct. But they'll play through it. More than the Big Ten can say.

The Big Ten can say they didn’t risk lives for entertainment. That’s a far better position. It’s clear that playing isn’t safe.

Actually Eric Legrand would disagree with you. Football has never been 100% safe and yet it's always been allowed to play for those that understand and accept the risk.

Edit: I realize Eric Legrand didn't die but he is paralyzed for life. Pretty heavy toll to pay for playing a risky game. And please explain why you hear at least 1 story every year of a football player dying from heat exhaustion or the similar yet....football continues.

This is terrible. How many were hospitalized?

Unsubstantiated rumors passed on as fact, unprovoked politics, and looking like a total asshole. OP with the all-to-common trifecta.

Who do you like in the SMU/TCU game tonight?

Oh no!!! A game was cancelled.

Oh wait.....the season presses on.

Never mind the manufactured hysteria.

Before Covid there was always risk of serious injury and death playing football. I guess we should just shut that shit down for good.

What are your thoughts on Marshall/East Carolina and UCF/FIU? I’m thinking about a parlay.

Keep this up all year. Games will be canceled. Other will be played. The whole time you'll look like a horses ass.

I imagine that will happen one day. But that doesn’t make the argument that we should add additional risk to the game.

Newsflash. The risk is there when they aren't playing football.

The players want to play. Let them play.

No it’s not. The game adds risk. You just sound foolish now.

 

[TJ8869]

I just might.

 

[anon_89hvcc2uyzmki]

No it doesn't. But keep telling yourself that. The rest of us will get back to football and life.✌

 

[runkpanole]

Yeah, I mean if they weren’t playing football they’d be hanging at the nearest bar or party. They’d be much safer in those instances.

They may, but that wouldn’t be the school making millions putting them at risk. We must also concede that without football they may be home taking all their classes online.

You think it's all about the money?

Of course

Of course

Not passion, tradition, rivalries, school spirit, a sense of normalcy, etc., etc.?

Just the benjamins?

What fun is life without risk?

Nope. The swim team has all that but no one cares that they aren’t playing. Football is all about money.

No one cares about the WNBA either but they're still playing.

 

[naturalmwa]

Professional is different than amateur, but I’d bet every dollar I have the WNBA is playing because of money too.

 

[BGHAWK]

Regardless of where they got it, they’ve got it. And they won’t be the last team to get it.

And a feww more may die or at best have lingering lifetime issues. What's to worry?

 

[SoFla-Hawkeye]

All of that has been monetized.

How do you know you won ? When their only reply is this.
