Yeah, it's well known that COVID generally doesn't hit the young all that hard when we know the flu can be pretty dangerous for young children.

I understand the statement, but what is your overall premise?

Should schools be closed this fall to in-person learning?  If everyone masks up on on school grounds, what's the problem?  Colleges could pose some issues due to on campus living, but what's the issue for K-12?

That kids are fuging super spreaders of basically any illness. They are little disease bags.

If you have kids teaching kids, kids running the schools, kids driving the school buses and kids raising themselves when they get home...there's no reason to shut down the schools.

The issue is not the kids, its all of the people they come in contact with.  And maybe school has changed since I was there, but a majority of my teachers could be considered higher risk.

Science still does not have a firm understanding on how much kids can spread Covid. The data is just not there since schools were shut down so fast back in March.


Since we don’t know, Governors and schools are taking a cautious approach. Low risk does not mean no risk.

If everyone went potty like they should, we could eliminate diapers. Little kids have a different set of ideas than ( most) adults.

True, but do we close down schools for the flu?  Does the flu not spread from kids to adults?  Asymptomatic folks are less likely to be a vector than symptomatic persons.  Again, college is a whole different ball of wax, but K-12 should be straight forward.

Ok.

    • Tennessee just fired their coach.  I guess thats good to do before he completely destroys ward.  I dont know though
    • Y'all are funny. and dumb. The argument I am seeing now if he can only be considered good if he WRs are trash or the play call has to make it hard for him? WTF haha
    • No it's not, there isn't a single coach who's only job is to win games, because no coach is going to win games unless they're also improving the quality of play out of their players. For coaches with contending teams, winning is their #1 job, but I think it's a more than reasonable take to say that coaches of not yet contending teams winning comes second to making your players better. We have 11 games left, if you gave me the option of winning all 11 of the games in terribly ugly fashion to where we don't improve the quality of our players vs we lose all 11 games, but do so in spectacular fashion where our players show significant improvement, I'm taking option B every time. Because option B is the path to future and long term success, while option A is a path to short term happiness at the expense of long term franchise stability.   And yes, that is clearly an extreme example that could never actually play out in either way, but you still know what I mean.  And no, it has nothing to do with draft position, it's about how good will these players be a year, 2 years, 3 years, etc, down the line, when you hope to be a true contending team, because nobody actually thinks we're that type of team this year unless you're literally crazy
