College Football Isn’t a Bubble

Sports fans are longing to return to the stands, but health experts say stadiums are one of the highest-risk areas for coronavirus transmission. Dr. Peter Chin-Hong, an infectious disease specialist, walks us through how easily the virus could spread among the crowd.

jasongay You can’t tell these athletes that they can’t play, and then tell them to go to school with the tens of thousands of other students. It’s nonsensical and inconsistent. Another word is more fitting but I’ll refrain.

jasongay Trump and Republican governors that ignored science, undermined mask wearing, undermined testing, pushed to open too soon, pushed for bullshit cures and bleach enemas. Really there is a question about who to blame here? CollegeFootball

jasongay they should be mad at themselves for CHOOSING to cancel their seasons. Trump wants them to play. why can't we do normal things like going to school & playing football when thousands of people are protesting in the streets every night?

jasongay Every person on this thread 90% chance they called Trump racist in January and 'too late' when he banned flights from China. Missed the part where he made Cuomo destroy a tri-state area. The Spike in deaths across the country didnt come until after the millions Protested.

jasongay China.....

jasongay Sad.

jasongay That would be 'Donald Trump'. If we had done a hard shutdown of the country starting in March, we could have safely started reopening last month. Unfortunately too many Americans are unwilling to be even mildly inconvenienced, even to save lives.

jasongay Obviously democrats want nothing to open, if you don’t know that you are asleep

jasongay The conference leaders. They don’t care about the athletes they just don’t want them getting sick in the athletic department. These are young people. If they aren’t practicing, they’ll be socializing unsafely with fellow students or buddies from home.

jasongay So Trump is in total control of a virus that is a pandemic. That mean the entire world. Maybe if Fauci and the FDA encouraged access to Hydroxychloriquine +Zinc, we would be better off. But their big Pharma payers say no way.

jasongay Clearly Trump... jokes aside, we should be furious with Dan Wolken and Darren (often called Karen) Rovell.

jasongay I’d be mad too. No leadership! Lead the freedom charge SEC!

jasongay America got the president they deserve! Someone selfish narcissistic and just plain mean!

jasongay China

jasongay Conferences and universities. They made the decision

jasongay 45. PeriodT.

jasongay Democrats

jasongay realDonaldTrump is the only person to blame for letting the TrumpVirus get out of control.

jasongay Trump, for politicizing the pandemic.

jasongay Trump. For being post policy/no policy. Let CDC run their program if Trump has not already killed their effectiveness with his bullying ignorance.

jasongay Fans need to be angry at themselves for ignoring Fauchi.

jasongay They should be mad at the president* whose administration royally fucked up the response to the virus. Fixed that for you ...

jasongay Natural causes

jasongay The White House illegal occupant.

jasongay Any answer other than 'the media' is incorrect.

jasongay IMPOTUS45

jasongay Liberals!! They ruin everything!

jasongay Political leadership & ignorance to scientific proven strategies utilized to mitigate the spread in virtually every first-world country.

jasongay Fans who are mad need to remember these are young men with their whole lives ahead of them. College football is entertainment. It’s not life or family and for the vast majority it’s not a career either. It’s not their lot in life to risk their health so you can sit on your ass.

jasongay Guys, I keep saying we just get the teams to play Madden against one another on Twitch all season. 16 games mean we can get 32 players in this season if we do doubles.

jasongay Leftist university presidents and boards

jasongay Anti-mask people

jasongay Simple. The media.

jasongay Democrats.
