Nursing homes in Charlotte reporting multiple cases.  It will get worse.

Asymptomatic folks who work there probably bringing it in and not realizing it.  Hate it for the folks who just are there waiting to be infected.

True.

NYC metro area is very densely populated and to be honest, I don't know what anyone could do with that place.  There is not an arms length of space as everyone is on top of each other.

CA and TX have done a decent job trying to keep folks away from each other for the populations they have.  Houston is a very large city.  Saying is, that when you are in Houston, your are still 2 hours from Houston.  At least they are spread out, hoping it makes a difference.

Mardi Gras just did New Orleans no favors

I’ll say one thing, if this thing leads to remote work becoming much more common, people are going to leave these big cities in droves. Rural areas are going to see a big population increase.

The high cost of living, taxes, and now increased risk of death, will not make these areas worth it.

Probably a few families might relocate, but Americans have a knack of forgetting things pretty quickly.  For better or worse....

No doubt we could have handled it a lot better.  I certainly didn't mean to excuse the things our government did or did not do.  But South Korea certainly had a much easier situation to deal with. 

Geographically yes, it is much easier for South Korea to isolate itself. 

Based on the extreme density of South Korea's population, no.  South Carolina has one tenth South Korea's population.

South Korea's population density is much greater than what we have outside of our top two or three cities. 

50 million people on a relatively small peninsula means that if the Koreans hadn't reacted quickly to the virus it would have been uncontrollable within a matter of days. 

If New York City had been as decisive and well prepared as South Korea there is every reason to believe they'd have fared much better.

People don’t move to NYC because they can’t wait to work in an office building.  If they can work remotely within NYC they will stay, especially without a boss breathing down their neck all day.

To me this is the shining light at the end of the tunnel as boomers leave their executive positions and millennials start taking over.  The 5 days a week 8 hour work day model is inefficient and outdated...in addition to having to show up to work for all of those hours.  I'm hoping at least SOME remote work will become the new normal.  I could definitely see my company allowing remote work on Friday's once the VP becomes President (he's a younger guy).

To all my Republican friends, please, please find a political candidate that has passed the third grade. It is painful to watch the Trump administration throw sh!t at the American people to see what sticks. I hate talking politics but reading our fan base backing this idiot is disturbing. I don’t care what side of the isle you live on, if you can’t see that this President is an idiot and a buffoon, I have some ocean front property in Nebraska I can sell you. Trump will forever be the worst president in American history. I completely blame this administration for what is happening with us today. He could have prevented the entire fiasco. American people have died and will continue to die, to protect Trumps pride and inability to lead. Moving forward, we must be smart and choose a leader that can lead this country, not destroy it. Flame away.

Crazy talk invites you to the TB.  They will love and embrace you there.  Harbingers will open the door for you, find you a chair and feed you nonstop truth from Twitter.

Do you have anything to say beyond hysterical talk?  "could have prevented Covid 19"  That's a good one.  Trump says he's the best, you say he's the worst.  Again, the truth is well between these two crazy talking points.  Twitter will be your roadmap.......to nowhere

      Disturbing

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.

      Eric Collins Calling First NFL Game (ours)

      Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.

      Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
