So, by the numbers, it seems we are experiencing what the Italians were experiencing, which is that the virus is losing its punch.  Lots of people getting it but the deaths are continuing to decrease.

Hope that is a true trend.

Waiting for the data from the weekend to be updated.  I tend to think the spike was from the initial reopening of things coupled with Memorial Day folks eat up with cabin fever.  Add in increased testing availability along with 48 hour results, the case lode was inevitably going to increase. I suspect a plateau here shortly or even the start of a gradual downward trend.

That’s very optimistic.
 

Beijing is seeing a new outbreak. People were out in droves without masks in NYC this weekend. Numbers are going up in a lot of places.

I was out this weekend a few times and no one is using masks anymore. A few weeks ago 80% of people I saw had them. Now, maybe 10% are using them.

Without social distancing and proper mask usage, this thing spreads quickly.

True, but most people I do see wearing masks are the demographic that is the most vulnerable to complications, the elderly.  If I were over 60, I would not go anywhere without a mask nor venture out much at all for that matter.  Honestly, most of these people are retired so leaving their house outside of a grocery run is unnecessary anyway.   

We will see how this goes over in a couple of weeks.  I see people here locally still distancing without getting weird about it.  Mostly the people that aren't distancing while out are family members (restaurants, sidewalks, shopping) and they are already exposed to one another.  Strangers are still by and large trying keep some distance between themselves.

The Peninsula Club in Cornelius has temporarily shut its doors for deep cleaning following reports that numerous members had tested positive for novel coronavirus, which causes COVID-19, according to a report.

“I called a meeting of The Club staff to inform the employees of the positive cases and the possibility of exposure," club president George Searle said in the June 13 email. “Unfortunately, more than half of the staff walked away deciding not to work for the next few days.”

 

Move along...

Players testing positive and they aren’t practicing together yet. Season isn’t going to happen guys. Face it. 

Yep, at this point, I'd be surprised if they played this year.  It's only going to get worse as the year goes on.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
