Virginia-Va Tech Sept. 19 game already postponed: You'll never guess why

OK. You guessed it. COVID-19. Damn, you guys are smart.

Here's the story, for those who can read: https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nc...ech-suspends-practices/ar-BB18XS7p?li=BBnb7Kz

Dude you should walk away from this site and just people in general for awhile. You're obsessed right now and its taking over your life. You're a cheerleader for Covid and any negative news and only the news that relates to your beliefs.

I thank God I live in a country with freedoms. The only country on this planet with the freedoms we have. Everyone can make their own choices. 9/11 was yesterday. I was reminded how important those freedoms were yesterday when remembering that day back in 2001. Sad we live in a world where the same men and women that ran into the twin towers to save lives are the same people under attack by mobs today that are trying to restrict our freedoms.

You do you. Let everyone else do us. We all have a choice from the fans, down to the coaches, the players, the officials. Value our freedoms.

The important part is two very good academic schools had planned on playing, put protocols in place for player safety and then couldn't. This vs hiding in fear. The cancellation is due to very conservative protocols currently in place. I see those easing as better testing comes around.

HAHAHAHAHAHA - this is what is wrong with (white) Americans: arrogant, ignorant and plain stupid.

So quit giving him an audience to spew his garbage.
 
I just don't understand why there are people that insist on spreading fear despite the statistics regarding higher and lower risk populations.

These football players are MORE apt to expose themselves to this virus (that would not likely result in a decline in health anyway) by NOT having football to think about 24/7.

Stop trying to convince others to live scared just because you've decided to.

Probably because the virus doesn’t live in bubbles separated by age group or by risk type and the young and healthy can spread it to those that aren’t?

Why do you all keep feeding this troll? Best to just ignore him and he will go away. All he does is flood the board with negativity and never returns to defend himself. He is a pathetic coward.
True @aristotleiowa never returns to the threads he starts. Just wants to post his initial vitriol thinking that'll "show us" for being okay with football returning.

Like I said, he @aristotleiowa desperately wanted to use that former California football player's death as ammo, but due to conflicting info and everyone already beating him to the punch and pre-preemptively calling him out, he's kept quiet on that thus far. But you know deep down, he wants to use actual players' deaths from covid as ammunition on this HawkeyeReport message board.

It's sad, really...........
 
Like going to work or to the grocery store?
Where facial protection.

There have been roughly 6.6'ish million people supposedly w/ Covid-19 at some point, 3.9'ish million of which have been listed as "recovered."

That leaves about 2.7 million active cases it seems. 300+ million total US population. 2.7 out of 330 million???


Wearing an N95 mask, which CAN be purchased, blocks at least 95% of tiny air particulates.

Wearing a mask while considering the relatively small amount of people running around WITH Covid, should make almost anyone feel pretty comfortable out at the grocery store or at work.

"The concept is risk reduction rather than absolute prevention. You don't throw up your hands if you think a mask is not 100% effective, that's silly. Nobody is taking a cholesterol medicine because they're going to prevent a heart attack 100% of the time, but you're reducing your risk substantially." - Infectious Disease Specialist Peter Chin Hong, MD
 
What soooooo many people have been saying for months now - if you're not young, not healthy, or are simply uncomfortable, stay the F**k away from situations "you" feel aren't good for "you."
Kinda hard when you have morons all over you in places like grocery stores....

UVA - VaTech

The season really is touch and go - with a handful of games already cancelled and and other match-ups skewed due to different levels of practice time and player availability - Ex-Navy vs BYU. You can argue the B1G should be playing come hell or high water, but it is not the slam dunk 'They should be playing!' too many of you are making it seem.

Only a fool like you would be old and unhealthy, but not avoiding contact with others in the midst of a pandemic.

This x 1000. Rejoicing that a game is cancelled is sick. It looks like the MLB season is going to get played. After the early issues with the Marlins and the Cardinals the easy thing to do would have been to fold up. I absolutely do not understand letting people who wish to live their lives and enjoy freedoms do so. If you wish to shelter in place until there is a vaccine, then do so.

99.9% of people I see in all types of environments are now wearing masks. Every day.

If i'm wearing a mask and you're wearing a mask, combined with the actual chance you or I HAVE the active virus (3'ish million carrying Covid out of 330'ish million....), the risk is super unbelievably ridiculously, incredibly low.
