So collage football players shouldn't be worried about it?

TheLost

yep--there's a tipping point and we past it about 1 Trillion dollars ago

Tsisquan

Of course they shouldn't be worried about it. Look at the data.

Some coal miners don't get 'black lung'. so why should the rest worry about it?

What’s you’re point? First death rates have been similar to bad flu seasons. Two

They have been scared silly by the hysterical media & social media

This is a calculated flexing of muscles by athletes.

Everyman

8/7/20 7:07am

Yes it is. But it's the type of stupid thing that would kill college athletics.

8/7/20 7:17am

let them skip the year, they'll likely have covid before the year is out anyway

I have no problem with the demands for extended health coverage

Those cases are definitely serious, but hardly the norm.

So whats your acceptable number? 1 out of 100 (one on each team?)

TheLost

That's a silly question. There's risk in everything.

Isn't that why we have insurance?
