In Event 201 by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation + The Johns Hopkins University, the simulated Pandemic Preparedness Exercise happens identical to what is currently happening ..

In Event 201, states open up too quickly and a second wave worse than the first ends up happening and things shut down again ..

Event 201 .. it was October 18th 2019 in NYC .. the same day the Military Games in Wuhan, China began

Event 201 ... isn't that a class at UNCC? Like where you learn how to throw a sophisticated pool party?

Reality no longer matters. Only emotions and political leanings. We're fuged.

In fairness we have been fuged for a long time and much longer than you've been alive. Look at it this way, you might just get to tell people you saw the end of it.

Here is some American exceptionalism for you, the US has roughly 4.3% of the world's population yet 25.7% of the Rona worldwide deaths and 25.8% of the worldwide Rona cases.

To be fair, I do believe we are testing more than most, and we still don't know what China's real death toll is.

So many people take so many hard and fast stands that others are stupid by masking or stupid by not masking.  Bottom line is, nobody knows exactly what is driving numbers, so all your stands for or against should be tempered a bit by lagging data and changing dynamics.

It seems clear that while you can argue the numbers and get out of it what you are looking for, the bottom line is as long as the cases and number of hospitalizations  keeps rising so will people dying. Whether it ends up to be a death rate of 1% or lower isn't as important as keeping the hospitals from being overwhelmed like in New York which is what drove the death toll higher. Right now the ICU use rate for Arizona is 88% and going higher.

There is no rational argument you can make for not wearing masks and practicing social distancing.  No matter the number differences and let's be real here, this administration wants the country and the economy open to win reelection and they will fudge numbers and willingingly let people die to further their political agenda.  With politicians running the numbers instead of scientists my trust in the CDC and this government is nil. So we can either wait until we get overwhelmed again or do the responsible thing as we go. You would think we would learn from our mistakes instead of continuing to do it over and over  again.

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      By CRA · Posted

      And I’m fine with that.   But, with an impatient owner….that carries high odds of just him employing a new HC in the not distant future.  The “we will see if the scheme that doesn’t fit our #1 overall pick QB works or not” approach seems like a rocky plan for all.  If I was Canales I would give it shot but demanded I need to be able to sign a legit backup QB in case what I was given just doesn’t work and can transition at the end of the year

      That's really unlikely to happen.  The reality is, they are building for what Canales wants to do.  That's what all coaches do.  And if Bryce can't do that, he's another peg that has to be replaced.

      There is nothing unpopular at all about your opinion. How everything played out on the field backs it up. Bryce starts the season with much fanfare, gives the atl game away, and showed anyone who watched that his arm talent was shockingly bad. bad look, so after a few weeks, the team cooks up a fake injury that nobody saw, presumably to decide what direction to go next. Enter Dalton for one game while Bryce is seen walking comfortably on the sideline, smiling and yucking it up like he’s a 5 year vet.  Dalton performs admirably given the circumstances (please no Dalton ve Bryce retort). The contrast between the two was so strong that it’s still debated today. If Dalton’s performance was similar to what Bryce had done up to that point, I truly believe they would have sat Bryce longer, but it wasn’t.  Dalton relied on vet savvy and a better arm. It’s debatable how many games that gets us. Meaningless to fans, but not to players with serious financial incentives on the line.  What it really was, was a ‘young man (see what I did?)’ playing a grown man’s game, who lacked basic fundamentals and essential physical talent, behind a line that was VERY ill suited for the scheme forced on them, WRs who looked completely confused and unmotivated, with a back stabbing coaching staff in give up mode, GM who I wouldn’t trust to organize my cooking utensil drawer and an owner who meets with coaches every week and tells them which plays he likes and which ones he doesn’t.  Bryce doesn’t get a mulligan, but I’m willing to give him a ‘my bad’ from the team. Last season stunk worse than Bigfoot’s di**. It literally can’t get ANY worse than the unwatchable sh** show that was last year.  I have to see a monumental change in his physical ability and overall confidence. I have to see that he found a laser arm, somewhere, in the offseason, or everything else is irrelevant.
