Yup^, 98% will NEVER admit it and say hey man you were probably smart not get the vax in hindsight, I was blinded by the govt telling me I was a loser POS if I didn’t get it.
Covid Cancellations
- Thread starter Rayban_Givens
- Start date
Covid is not "over unless you're 80". My girlfriend's extended family has had it over the past month (at least 6 of them, aged 1 to 70, pretty much every generation). I doubt it will ever be "over". I've also known a couple elderly people to die of it the past couple weeks.
Now it is not creating as much havoc as it was a year or two ago. And it may be like the flu going forward.
To me the bigger question is, are games canceled for the flu, or do teams just play with a short-roster? I think the later. So I agree with your last point/statement.
To win the election obviously. Not that hard to come to this realization
Just had a 19 year old person die from COVID. Tell his parents it is BS.
GO CATS
GO CATS
And yet Republicans did better than expected in both the House and Senate in 2020. If Trump didn’t treat Covid like the *** circus, you could make the case that he would’ve won regardless. But unfortunately for you, he was inept.
Northwestern has 6 players with COVId. If they have anyone out with injury they wouldn't really even have enough players to play the game.
What if I told you most research schools lean liberal too? Like the other poster said, liberal arts doesn't pertain to politics. Liberty University and Hillsdale college are two of the most conservative schools in the country and are liberal arts schools.
Yes, I posted that.. What about the other cancelations happening?
What are the protocols?
At the last college I worked at, we had a basketball game postponed because of a norovirus outbreak on campus. Basketball team only had like 6 players that could play and one of those was only going to be allowed to play if one of the other 5 fouled out because of injury recovery. Schools agreed to postpone it because it was deemed not a safe situation for my school's team and the visiting team didn't want to come to campus with norovirus running rampant.
I don't know, ask the schools if you want to know. What do I look like, the AD for every school in America?
With Covid being so dangerous, you think there would be a standard procedure & protocol for teams to follow.. I guess it’s not that big of a deal then
I’ve found these Yak/Merino/Silk blend socks to be nice in the cold weather. Pricy at $76, but worth it.
This thread is now rated R due to depictions of socks and violins.
What were his comorbidities? Other physical issues? Very doubtful he died "from" covid.
The stigma around the word itself is the issue now. People still hear "covid" and the initial delta seriousness is embedded in their mindset. Never mind that "today's" covid isn't anywhere close to that. Sure, there will be serious cases.....same as with the flu, pneumonia, bronchitis, etc.
We are FINALLY seeing the advisories to take care of your physical health, get exercise, etc, instead of not allowing gyms to open, no running on the beach, basketball rims removed at parks, etc. Where were these when we needed them 2 years ago?
Covid in itself isn't going anywhere, but given the government essentially mandated our immune systems be destroyed with the ignorant lockdowns, there will be issues with the health compromised if they catch it, or any other illness.
For the most part, covid is over in the sense it is no longer carrying the fear it once did, unless you still believe in masks, lockdowns, multiple boosters, etc.
I knew most of this board would be chomping at the bit to argue about COVID and vaccines some more. As Jerry once said on Seinfeld, "Good luck with alll that."
It likely would have been due to Covid as the primary cause, which does have greater affects on those with other comorbidities; but that does not make Covid not the primary cause.
If he was living just fine with the comorbidities, then got Covid and died, then Covid was the cause of death. They do the same thing with flu, pneumonia, and other illnesses. If your grandma has hypertension and diabetes, then contracts pneumonia and passes, then the cause of death is pneumonia.
Yeah. The protocol is that once info is released or investigations begin, there's a threat of shutdowns
Chicago has NO IDEA what you're talking about. They're firmly in a knowledge vacuum. Unless it comes in on a network or through the centers for disease creation it never gets heard.
You haven't been in a college curriculum for a long while. The liberal political ideology was part of the college education system in the 60s. Still was in the 80s. Still was and only got stronger so in the mid-20-teens.
The ethics here: Don’t make your problem my problem!! 1 million deaths don’t mean sh** we got 329 million more to go!!
How many college classes did you attend over the past 10 years?
I’m always interested in how so many CI posters know the inner workings of this stuff.

I finished my master's literally last year, not once did I think about politics while taking any of my classes. The liberal political ideology is stronger on college campuses because when you go to receive a higher education, you are surrounded by different groups/cultures/etc. that most people (especially in Kentucky) wouldn't necessarily see in their hometowns. Other than campuses being more diverse (a fact that generally leads to a more liberal environment), the actual curriculum is not as deeply engrained in politics as some of you all seem to think.
Who gains politically? Is that a serious question?
Someone is ALWAYS making money. Right now it's the resource and utilities companies with soaring costs for both. Talk of eliminating coal and gas has driven prices up to use them. George Soron bought up 3 coal companies, when Obama hit the industry with fantastical EPA regs and talked about eliminating coal, because it drove the price of coal into the ground.
Then talk of ditching coal disappeared and the market went crazy again. Soron made a fortune. Talked about natural gas going away. That will eliminate smaller companies with lesser margins. Big companies and countries like China will continue to buy up the smaller companies as they sell or file bk. Then all talk of eliminating it will cease again.
Politicians, until they are physically stopped from taking bribes, kickbacks, campaign contributions, selling votes and favors, etc. will keep getting them from Introducing legislation that profits others.
It's amazing how many people think that this country has no enemies. That we really have trade partners that arent positioning themselves to and wouldn't take half of our country in a NY minute if they had the opportunity. Our economy, like economies throughout history, is what makes us as a country strong or weak. Every hedge we built up against invasion and conquest has been overrun or torn down the last 15 years.
Another shutdown just finishes it off sooner and gets the crooks in DC and around the country PAID sooner.
-lmao. "Save children"...not sure how you gleaned that little nugget from my post...or where I said teachers are worthless. Good effort.

The idiocy here- "Masks and shutdowns didn't work last time, and the shots don't prevent infection, transmission, or death due to covid. They people in charge admitted they knew they wouldn't, but let's mask up and shut her down again, and go get a booster for the thing that doesn't work."
That "literally" says it all right there. Lol
If you didn't think about it once, then your second sentence and what follows is a complete farce, and DEMONSTRATES the ideology being programmed into clueless non-thinkers.
I know and hang around a "diverse" group of people from many cultures and countries. All of them are conservatives. Nearly all of them have advanced degrees. They knew what the schools were shoveling and could see it in their curriculum. That you can't or couldn't see it is simply evidence of how programmable and how well programmed you are.
It's also a big deal if you
- had the shots. Most that I know getting the illnesses have gotten them. I don't know of anyone who has died from covid in the past 18m that didn't get the shots.
Comorbitidies, partially or fully vaccinated against it? Or is this just anecdotal?
I've already taken down the neighborhood basketball hoops and we're waiting on sand to cover our sidewalks so no one goes outside and exercises on them.
What the hell? You said I hadn't been in a college curriculum in a long while so when I said the word literally, it was only meant to emphasize how recent I had, in fact, taken college classes. If you see anything deeper into that sentence then you're just overanalyzing.
Just because your college experience was spent trying to find every ounce of politics in every nook and cranny of your daily life, that doesn't mean that everyone else is that way. I did say that more diversity GENERALLY leads to a more liberal environment. There are cases, such as yours, where that may not be the case so I don't really understand what point you're trying to make there. I am glad, though, that you found a safe space where you are your fellow diverse conservatives can worry about your belief in subtle political indoctrination at the college level.
If I'm so programmable, I would invite you to research how my Business Administration curriculum was created in a way to lead to follow the liberal agenda. I swear I've never felt more like a Democrat than when I was studying for my Accounting and Information Technology finals.
You try SO HARD. Good for you.
Try to understand what I'm saying as best you can.I was and remain independent in thought and ideology, so when someone in my undergrad, master's, and remaining post grad education tried to wedge some political bS (from any direction) into the curriculum it stood out and I didn't let it slide unchallenged.
Someone who is liberal OF COURSE wouldn't catch a LICK of liberal ideology in ANY of their course work. It's like the frog in the water analogy. As long as the frog is in the water and it isnt deviating much from its ideal, it won't notice changes. It's oblivious. Keep raising the temp slowly and the frog will boil. As long as they keep it ideal for him, he won't notice.
You didn't notice because you were swimming in your own bath water
In my MBA classes, there were very clear liberal ideologies in both the economics and marketing areas. They weren't very hard to see in the psych/personnel management side either. That you thought they'd be found in your accounting courses is very enlightening (must have been graded on a curve). Thank you for that.
Had they not had the comorbidities, then covid would not have been as serious a threat.
Highly likely that the ultimate cause (if they had comorbidities) was the result of covid making them worse....high bp, emphysema, cancer, copd, diabetes, etc.
Yes, I know. I was addressing cause of death.
If someone has comorbidities, and is living life just fine with them, then gets Covid and dies, Covid is correctly listed as cause of death.
You know absolutely zero about my course work yet assume that there is liberal ideology spread everywhere within it. At least have some knowledge about what you're talking about before you speak so confidently.You try SO HARD. Good for you.

You have to try and understand that just because you feel as though you experienced some form of liberal indoctrination in your coursework, that is not the case for everyone. The thing about analogies is that a lot of them, including this one, are nonsense. If you try to boil a frog, whether you do it quickly or slowly, it's tiny little frog brain can still recognize that it needs to get away from the heat.
