I'm sorry for the situation you are in, but a one size fits all reaction is not appropriate and is killing the economy, which will kill many people as well.

In NC, we have had 500 some deaths, most in nursing homes. Meanwhile, half the restaurants and many, many more businesses are projected not to open again. Shutting everything down can and will ruin at least as many lives as the virus. 

Things have to start opening with precautions. 

Even Cuomo said it would be foolish to make all of New York state wait to open based on what's going on around NYC.  A regional thought process is best.  I feel bad for New Yorkers, but even their own governor isn't advising that we all stay shut down until they can get their stuff together.

I agree. I'm certainly not saying NC should be under the same lockdown as NY. But New York City right now should be a grave warning of what could happen without the proper precaution just like Italy should have been before that. Anyone who knows the extent of what we're dealing wouldn't be rushing to send their children to packed schools or fill stadiums and arenas.

Businesses do need to gradually open back up but we need to be smart about it. Frankly I think scheduling large gatherings at all right now is ridiculous and irresponsible. Like barbershops and nail salons fine, but you might want to cool on the idea of stuffing hundreds if not thousands of people together just for fun in 2020. And I do sincerely believe children in school will be ground zero for any regions that have to deal with it next if it's rushed.

The way you guys live in the NYC area isn't common across the US.  Most people don't live in that version of the world.  You've got almost every disadvantage you can have there.  The idea that its just a preview for everyone else is a myth.

Because we have a president and administration that completely blew the response to this virus. That is why!

Ditto. Trump did not create the virus or bring it in to the country. He IS responsible for the way it was handled and the resulting chaos & death. Why is it so hard for white conservatives to understand?

according to you all, its either Trumps fault that the virus exists, or its Trumps fault that our country is shut down because of it

He waisted alot of time because he thought all of this was just a personal attack against him. So yeah! the is mostly true.

So if a black liberal was in charge nobody would have died from this?

Sure, people would have died but I guarantee not nearly as many because any president with common sense wouldnt have sat on his hands for a full month and done nothing. Now Trum is trying to distance himself from the whole thing and move on like a coward. Because it is hurting his re election hopes.

I know the mods agree with you, but take it to the TB anyway

in nc we would have to have 130k people to be diagnosed to reach 1% of the population

currently we have just over 13k...of those, 2500 from nursing homes, 1100 from correctional facilities

a lot of people, and too many dealing with this...but we need to have some real perspective

For the fiftieth time we're barely testing anybody

As of 11 AM today the DHHS reports that NC has tested 186,362 people or about 1.8% of the state population:

We don't have an accurate number of infected people.  Completely misleading bs argument.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce

      Yea Bryce was definitely a top half qb the second half of last season but I'm not sure Canales is 100% sold on him.  Like I've said in another post I think that's part of why we talked to so many South Carolina players in the draft process.  I think they are doing early due diligence on Sellers just in case.
