Never had a post hit the

Why would sharing a post by Tim Bourret be moved to the round table? Swing and a miss post for sure. Ric Flair would be ashamed of you.

Watched that replay last night. Remember watching it on tv when it was live. Didn’t remember how good of a game Freddie Solomon (Sumter) had.
dwight Clark and charlie w were representing the tigers.
Ronnie Lott was still bringing the lumber.

danny white was better than I remember. I guess I didn’t remember him being that good because he never got them over the hump and he was following Roger, who always came up big under the bright lights.

fixed

Reminds me of a poster who thought we should handle things more like they did during the 1918 flu pandemic. Because that really went well.
Worse than #brandon? Smh. The government can’t fix this virus. Even with sleepy joe(toonces the driving cat) at the wheel
 
Round table…..

here goes…..

Back then, 100 people a YEAR died with chickenpox in the U.S. before vaccines were available.

Meanwhile, yesterday, there were 2,954 people who died with COVID19 in a single DAY even with vaccines widely available.

I love TimmyB but that isn’t a relevant comparison.
 
Context is king here.
Chickenpox is a largely childhood illness that has a common two week incubation period. Before the NFC championship game, the 49ers isolated Keena Turner for two days while determining if it was chickenpox and canvassing the team to determine who previously had the childhood disease. Turner called his parents in Chicago (?) and they gave him the bad news that he’d never had it. I’d imagine the preponderance of players, coaches, staff and media had chickenpox as a child and knew about it before the NFC championship game and Super Bowl.

Government cannot fix it especially with a lack of cooperation from too many of its citizens.
I can’t predict what would happen if everyone wore their little mask like the little government officials desire, but Australia had over 54k cases with their gestapo style lockdown. You know, where they throw you in prison for being outside without a permit.
Based on this, I would guess it doesn’t really matter.
46% of the people hospitalized for COVID in sc are fully vaccinated according to scdhec.

I was going to add it is not ever going to be fully fixed no matter what. I'll take the overall proven statistics that a large majority of hospitalized Covid patients are unvaccinated and much more likely to die.

Yeah but no college or NFL athletes are at risk for Covid. It makes no sense to not allow them to play based off of a test.

Stats show that 75%of vaccinated “Covid deaths” are associated with 4 other Co-morbidities, so vaccine seems to be helping.

But you’re crazy if you think athletes shouldn’t be allowed to play football if they feel halfway decent

So if they play, those players won’t come into contact with anyone who is not a healthy, low risk football player? They won’t come into contact with hundreds of coaches and support staff, not to mention others around the team? And how many of those healthy players and staffers they expose while playing, if they too become infected, would later come into contact with friends and family, coworkers, and the general population who are not as safe? The idea that someone who is contagious with a respiratory illness that can kill others or make them very sick should be allowed to come to work in any profession and expose everyone around them is crazy. There is no arguing that the risk to that athlete is significantly lower than most, but it’s not about the risk to the individual who is sick, it’s about the risk to the people who will be exposed down the line if they are exposed to that person.

If my company or any company I know has an employee who is sick with any illness that is contagious, COVID19 or not, we don’t allow them to come to work even if they feel like working. Professional athletes should be no different.

Round table…..

here goes…..

Chicken Pox can certainly be a serious disease in adults. Now if he played he likely had it as a child would. But we treated it quite seriously whenever it got going at Camp LeJeune. That was in the days before the vaccine. The problem is eliminated now because of a very appropriate military vaccine or disease titer/history mandate. Also it is a lifetime immunity vaccine and disease.

@Cris_Ard can we please moderate this board and take offensive threads like this to The Round Table! I come here to read Clemson posts, not to be offended!!

LOL Really? You must not know a lot of companies. Being sick is part of life.

Being sick is a part of life. Working through it is a part if life. But if you are contagious with an infectious illness and knowingly expose others, that is a different story. I didnt say working sick was an issue, I said working with a contagious illness is.
