As crazy as it sounds, the President will get a lot of credit for "what the hell do you have to lose" with most people.

If it is an existing drug, and people are going down, why not give it a shot until the medical community catches up?  Might be crazy in normal times, but if I was circling the drain, I would ask for it.

I wonder what Dr. Fauci was about to say.

Man, there are a lot of people who hate that it is helping many folks get better. Weird

The issue is the drug is

#1 toxic and not something you want to give people without clear cause.

#2 In short supply and needed by people with other conditions.

#3 There is no clear data that it is actually helping.

I think most people would love for it to work. They just don’t like the president making people believe that it is going to solve this issue when it might not do anything.

Yeah, I think Trump needs to stop beating the drum on it. It's not helping. India provides roughly half of our supply and they banned the exportation of it a couple of days ago. So, now we have demand surging and the supply just got cut in half.

Why do you think they banned the export of the drug?

You don’t need a prescription to get it in India so people there have been scooping it up because there is a possibility it may help. The ban seems like a protective measure in case there is substance to claims the drug works.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      By fanpanther · Posted

      This is a good take it really is to the point dc needs to let the world see the real byoung b/c right now everyone in the media and tepper has had blinders on when it comes to young.  Its hard to even know where the panthers are at skill player wise with such horrible qb play.  I doubt it but legette may be a probowl wr he just cant throw the ball and catch it.  I am just so sick of every excuse in the book for byoung.  LIstened to a podcast and the guy was going over how many different options byoung had on the int and all of them were ok except for the one where he threw an int.  He said the play could be run by a hs qb and they would typically make a good decision.

      We have a Dave Canales Problem

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I certainly have my complaints about Canales but I'm not ready to fire him yet for a couple of reasons. First and foremost, Tepper has made this one of the least appealing jobs in the league. Morgan and Canales are here to begin with in large part because guys higher on the wish list take other jobs. If you fire Canales you're gonna end up replacing him with another third tier candidate who wasn't being seriously considered by other teams with openings. That's just the reality of the situation right now as far as I can tell. Secondly, despite plenty of room for critique, we are 6-6 despite the worst QB play in the league. That's really damn hard to pull off in the modern NFL. Especially when your D isn't dominant. Our D is greatly improved but is still a slightly below average overall defense ranking 18th in yards per game allowed and 20th in points allowed. Going 6-6 with atrocious QB play and slightly below average defensive play is pretty damn impressive. Even more impressive when you also factor in that we're in the red on turnovers differential at -3. When you combine league worst QB play with slightly below average D and negative turnover differential honestly you'd expect to be in play for the #1 overall pick, not 6-6 and having just played a game that a win would have you leading the division. So yeah, even though I'm far from sold I advocate for patience with Canales for the time being. If you ask me if I'm bringing him back next year, I'm a yes barring a catastrophic meltdown down the stretch which admittedly is very much a possibility.
