2019-2020 Official Regular Season Thread

If only someone had noticed...

Steady climb daily. Seems like a pretty consistent slope to that curve...

 

[shopson67]

No doubt....but often same could be said about the Scare and Blame News Networks.

Now I will say if the scaring is designed to get people to stay home then so be it.

Unfortunately, you can't fix stupid. Did you see the crowd that watched the Navy Hospital ship arrive in NYC? Hello....social distancing?

 

[shopson67]

I hate golf so whatever. But do you feel the same about kids playing in the park?

It's OK as long as you're not on the equipment. Kids are germ factories anyway, sharing slides, swings, and other hard surfaces is not a good idea.

 

[shopson67]

I do think if done right, golfing could be safe (and I am not a golfer). Will it be done right? I have my doubts.

No carts then, gotta walk the course. No sharing clubs, and pulling the flag could be an issue...need to bring some sanitizer.

 

[shopson67]

I just bought my kids Acoustic Guitars,we have a pool and a nearly 1,000 sq foot finished basement.

We're good.

It's a judgement call for each individual.

However, you may need to step outside occasionally to get away from the ruckus, lol.

This has very little to do with the NBA

That is also a terrible tweet. Yeah we're in worse shape than Canada but we also been dealing with Corona for over a month already. The peak of the corona in our country is looking like somepoint in late April

That was my hope, but some countries in the far east are seeing second waves of the virus now. If we don't wait long enough, this crap will rise up again. Can we even wait long enough?

 

[shopson67]

This is expected and the way this virus work if you been paying any attention.

This isn't a surprise to anyone. Once again, it is going to reach the peak in 2-3 weeks depending on who you listen to.

It will reach that peak in places like NYC that started early. Any city can become the new hot spot and will take longer than that time frame to peak.

 

[shopson67]

i hear ya...

they were saying 2 Lakers players had it and recovered, so it ain't exactly a death sentence...

Tough to give accurate numbers, since so many aren't in hospitals and are home-quarantined. Are all these people getting tested again to prove out the recovery?

 

[shopson67]

Wimbledon can't postpone until Fall because of the grass courts. They won't stand up to the wear and tear if they tried.

 

[shopson67]

We got another month of this corona shit

at the minimum

Yeah it looks like the numbers will peak in a couple weeks. But the growth RATE is at least slowing not accelerating anymore.

 

[shopson67]

@bksballer89 I stand corrected on my earlier comment. DeSantis is an idiot.

Florida man in full effect. With the huge amount of retirees in Florida, that death toll could be sizable if they don't lock down those retirement homes/communities.

 

[shopson67]

Lying Mofos.

Italy's Coronavirus Death Toll Is Far Higher Than Reported

Is it worth wasting the tests to test corpses? It sounds cold, but does it really matter?

Watched some of the Holy Grail last night, had to shudder a bit at the "bring out your dead" scene...

 

[shopson67]

Yeah it looks like the numbers will peak in a couple weeks. But the growth RATE is at least slowing not accelerating anymore.

Yeah, it has flattened, but still at a strong slope. They really need that to level off more to ease the pressure on the hospitals.

 

[msgkings322]

That's the plan, that's why we're on lockdown. It will work, it's starting to. Aren't deaths in NY starting to moderate?

Yeah, it has flattened, but still at a strong slope. They really need that to level off more to ease the pressure on the hospitals.

209 new deaths in Florida

He's a talented troll. Ridicule, don't get mad. Plenty of material to work with.

He doesn't move the troll anger needle for me.

I can call him a Dick in one post and have a regular conversation with him in the next.

That's how I roll.

I find racial trolling distasteful.

But, with some of the disgusting things I've said to others here, can I really complain?

Probably not without being a hypocrite.

But, I will most certainly acknowledge that I've seen it.

209 new deaths in Florida

Arizona up 10% today and it's only 11 am.

more testing = more positives

So, I'm not surprised.

Florida waiting so long to shut the state down is going to look very bad very soon

Exactly. The new cases numbers don't worry me much as testing ramps up. I'm watching the death numbers very closely.
