I'll never understand why people use that argument anyway, it makes them sound like we're disappointed that we didn't hit those numbers. I don't know about you but I, for one, am ecstatic we didn't lose a million Americans to this pandemic, while also sad that we lost 160,000+ thousand.

Yesterday, it looked like all of college football was going to shut down regardless of level. Now, theres a fascinating movement going on in social media by nearly all of the athletes using #wewanttoplay and giving the reasons they think they should play. No clue how it will turn out, but it's pretty cool seeing some of these kids like Trevor Lawrence who have absolutely nothing to gain by playing saying they want to. Bringing up some very valid points, that the athletes are probably actually more safe with the daily constraints/medical attention at school than they are being sent back home to areas where the risk of getting covid is so high.
The scary part about it is that it's calling for unionizing the college athletes as well. That particular part seems like a very bad idea.
Will be interesting to see how this shakes out.Last edited by LionFan; 08-10-2020, 08:57 AM.

Kids want candy before dinner; want to drive a car before they have a license; legally drink before age 21...etc. Thats why they are kids. They want what THEY want and don't thiink about the consequences.
Unfortunately, many adults are the same. Thank GOD someone is thinking.

3,417 TEXANS died or went MIA during the Vietnam War. Between 1955 -1975. 20 years. And people protested. It was a horrible thing 3,417 lost TEXANS in 20 years.
In 2020, 2.5+ times that number of TEXANS lost their lives to a new war, COVID-19.
8,731 TEXANS dead during the first 7 months...with almost 5 left to go.
AND you are making lite of it.
SHAME ON YOU!! And EVERYONE like you!!

I don't do "politics", especially nowadays. And I especially do not do EXTREMISTS (left-wing nut jobs or right-wing nut jobs).
As a Marine you are apolitical and serve the Commander in Chief, regardless of political party. I have remained this way since the day I took my Oath. So, I will RESPECT & SERVE President Trump until the second he leaves office be it 5 months from now or 53 months from now.
