    I imagine you're not a big "in good spirits" guy either.

    The coronavirus wanted nothing to do with the Jets.

    The most virulent contagious sickness got a good, up front look at the Jets and opted out.

    After further review, it's been ruled a non-catch. Even the off-field officials are screwing the Jets.

    That one doesn’t bother me. Just the abundance of caution can’t explain why.

    I think she posted here for a while after Darnold got drafted. But even she gave up. Haven't seen anything at all in a long time.

    whoever it is will be fine. If they are not, it would be the first athlete of all known positives not to be.

    hopefully it’s Gase and he could be the 0.001 percent

    Coronavirus is going to do a good job of sorting the fools out from the rest of the population. It's really easy to catch and unless you are lucky it is hard to get rid of.

    Early on this selection mechanism was not in play because we didn't know enough about the virus to allow most people to avoid it. At this point if you are gathering in large groups (large meaning in the range of a dozen or more) and you are unmasked, well you are just walking into the viruses hot zone because it really wants lots of unmasked people to flourish.

    We still haven't caught on to the real threat from SARS-CoV-2. That is that it becomes seasonal and culls people every year with outbreaks in the late fall that then sputter through the rest of the year. The flu vaccine is about 50% effective in any given year. It helps in suppressing major outbreaks of the flu but it doesn't stop a culling effect on the older and immune-compromised populations. It's not a coronavirus however. We have never deployed an effective vaccine against a coronavirus to date and it is unlikely SARS - CoV - 2 is going to be the one that breaks the mold.

    People look at the SARS - CoV - 2 and they discount the threat it represents even as it wreaks havoc all around them. This is because the issue, like Climate Change, has become politicized and politicians whose only real interest is to get re-elected have chosen to throw lots of resources into getting re-elected at all costs.

    This is true even as the Chief-denier hacks and coughs his way through interviews with a steroid mix in his system that would raise the dead for a few hours. A mix that he cannot possibly continue to take for more than another month or so without truly destroying his internal organs - a process the virus started and that he is gladly helping along because he's one of the aforementioned fools.

    The president of the United States, under the care of probably the best physicians in the world, are idiots... but Br4D, the mask- wearing jets message board poster is the one all should be listening to...

    Some Jets fans are about as rational over the corona virus as they are 20 minutes after the Jets lose.

    Everything is the end of the world to @Br4d . It’s part of his charm.
