NBA trivia time.

Who's the leading scorer of the 1980's?

 

[msgkings322]

current CDC numbers are far lower. Haven't looked since but about a week ago it said 35k deaths (as opposed to the reported 70k or so).

What? There's around 80,000 dead now

Anyone see the Shannon Brown story?

Does Georgia not have a stay at home order?

They weren't showing any houses nor apartments here in AZ.

So, I probably would have thought this was a home invasion.

Plus, who waits 4 hours to report being shot at?

Gotta be more to this story.

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Brown’s current Fayette County home is up for sale and he told police that he thought the couple was trying to break in. The couple told police that they saw a “For Sale” sign in Brown’s yard while searching for homes. They say that the gate and the front door to the home were open and that they thought someone inside told them to “come in”.

It was at that point that the 34-year-old Brown allegedly came outside with a rifle and fired “multiple rounds as the couple hurried to leave”.

According to AJC.com, the couple did not call police until 9:45 p.m. that night, nearly four hours after the incident occurred. “Investigators who responded to the home found one empty shell casing at the scene.”

But again I think people would be approaching this differently if we were all on the same page. I get that's hard to do in a country this large but the information available should be consistent. Instead we have people trying to create their own narrative. Which misleads people.

Again from my perspective our governor said it well

"Doing this is a risk (reopening) but doing nothing is also a big risk"

There are two sides to the coin here

The issue is the same as so many others.... way too many are on 100% on one side or the other. Either doom and gloom and will be a year or more before we can get back to regular life....or let's go back now, open up everything including mass gatherings. As usual, the answer probably lies in the middle. Unfortunately too many (not all) of those on an extreme side will believe anything that supports their beliefs and dismiss anything that doesn't.

I've heard some on the open up side compare this to the Holocaust, which is obscene.

 

[dtgold88]

If you haven’t noticed, the information that was coming to us from the science experts, has been shut down.

I understand it isn’t the science experts job to worry about the economy but it is pretty evident that Trump doesn’t want people to hear the science related opinions any more.

This is fair...but some of these "experts" were way off on projections.

The stay at home is expired in Georgia

Sounds like he may be losing it

 

[dtgold88]

Yup, I know we can't stay at home much (any) longer; the economy needs to get going fora lot of people. I just don't trust most people to be responsible enough. My family is at very low risk, fortunately, but anyone can put others at risk. I've seen many thinking they are doing the right thing, but wearing a mask covering only their mouth and under their nose.
As you say, there are two sides to every coin, but I don't want people's lives risked on a coin flip.

and there seem to be so many antimaskers who talk as though the masks are laced with an ingestible poison.

I don't like them, but I'll wear one in a store for 15-30 minutes as required or just asked.

 

[Wamu]

KAJ, Moses Malone or Dr. J?

Nope. But I'll give you a hint. He played at S. Carolina in college.

Alex English is correct.

www.worldometer.com

I am aware, but have seen people say the true numbers from the CDC were 35k (meaning not all 80k traced to covid)...I'll see if I can find the article.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Alex English is correct.

Goes to show I do too many of those mock drafts in here
