Hometown boys team total in reds a split Yanks gave up 2_0 lead, blah blah blah, it seems like I played this tape before, for tor blew but we had the normal play but didn't do it, is there anything normal anymore, I went to shake hands with I guy I knew for forty fuckin years, he extends his elbow, people wearing masks, a fuckin year ago you walk into a place wearing a mask or bandana over your face the cops were called is anything fuckin normal cardboard fuckin cutouts at games, what the fuck else
Actually we will make a pay on reds game instead the split was with plays the money will go in our favor just checked nothing major but will take it
What's the story with the football any 1 know greek surf, I heard 25% fans
Jints are rolling the normal play the nuggets which was the right play to make cause the public who always bets favs have been winning, but the abnormal right play in a normal season would be jazz, it's just to fucked up brothers bumping elbows instead of shaking hands I keep telling myself it will get better no it fuckin won't, everything that is, is really not, it's all out of sorts,

From what I see it looks like each team/university is setting their own criteria I’ve seen 2k 5k 10k ,250 only plus suites maybe has to do with state mandates by governors either way crowd won’t be a factor being at home is always easier than on the road traveling but not as much this year might even feel neutral setting if I was AD I’d dam sure have the band there space them out every 2 seats and blast away and the cheerleaders
I can't wait for thurs.
10-4 surf I just heard some different shit, and your right whatever guidelines rules mandate are set by the governor's there will be no way to circumvent that

Man tomorrow is never promised and sometimes when we are having good times we don’t appreciate it like we should ....I bet we do know
It is what it is we are alive and there is football
The virus itself since it mutated has become less deadly from what I’m reading however it gained the ability to spread easier
Trade off I’m sure we will all take
The spike protein was breaking off and the viral cells were dying and unable to penetrate cells
Well corona fixed that and hardened their spikes so now they can penetrate healthy cells easier but that mutation cost it some severity
a virus cell is numb / dumbthey just need a host and will do anything including weakening their punch to get “in”
So cases may rise and fall but hopefully the death toll is slowed some
Still bad news for older and health compromised
as is the regular flu and any viral contagion body can only take so much
I stand corrected we will see about it’s lethalness the mutation may or
May not have affected that but it has made it easier to spread
From a research study a month or so ago “””
“. The mutation at position 23,403 has drawn the most attention—in part because it changed the virus’ spike, the protein on its surface that attaches to human cells. The mutation changed the amino acid at position 614 of the spike from an aspartic acid (abbreviated D) to a glycine (G), which is why it’s called G614.
They believe that the mutation not only makes it easier for the virus to infect people, but more likely to spread, partially because the patients with the new mutation appeared to have a higher viral load when infected with the tougher strain, meaning higher amounts of virus circulating in their body”
It does not make it more ,or less ,deadlier though it's lethalness stays about the same
just easier and quicker to spread
Had a few gins but I’m a seeing this correct 68-67 in 4q? Isn’t that usually the score at halftime
NFL plans to pump in crowd noise, argues teams without fans won't be at disadvantage

Yahoo! Sports logoNFL plans to pump in crowd noise, argues teams without fans won't be at disadvantage
Plans for fans in the stands are all over the place in the NFL.
League leaders think that’s just fine.
Teams like the New York Giants and Jets have ruled fans out until further notice amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Others like the New Orleans Saints and Green Bay Packers have banned fans early, but are holding out hope for later in the season.
Then there’s the Miami Dolphins, who are throwing caution to the wind with a plan to invite fans to their home opener. It’s an idea deemed by some as “risky” as South Florida remains a hotspot despite declines after being one of the nation’s hardest-hit regions by COVID-19.
Roger Goodell: Fan inequity not unfair
The NFL doesn’t see a problem here in terms of a level playing field. Commissioner Roger Goodell said so himself on Tuesday, telling reporters on a conference call that there will be no advantage for teams with fans in the stands.
“We do not believe it’s a competitive advantage,” Goodell said. “We discussed it very early on with our competition committee and with our clubs. We do not see that.
“We obviously have varying capacities across the league, and from our standpoint, we want to invite our fans in if we can do it safely and we can do it with the full support of local officials. We think our fans want to come the stadium.”
That, of course, is absurd. Is Goodell actually disputing the long-held sports axiom of home-field advantage that comes from droves of screaming fans in the stands? Or is he just doing anything he can to avoid discouraging teams from inviting fans and the revenue that they generate to games.
Maybe he just has supreme faith in the league’s plan to level the playing field. On the same conference call, NFL executive vice president of football operations Troy Vincent provided an update on the league’s plan to simulate a football experience to something close to normal as possible amid a pandemic.
NFL’s plan to level playing field
Teams will be allowed to pump in noise to simulate home crowds.
Insert jokes about the Atlanta Falcons and the Indianapolis Colts here.

“For teams with no fans in the stands, we’ve created audio that will be played in all stadiums,” Vincent said.
Teams with limited fans like the Dolphins will also initially be allowed to use piped-in audio, according to Vincent. The thought there, presumably, is that 13,000 fans in the 65,000-seat Hard Rock Stadium won’t come close to resembling a normal home crowd. So they’ll get an assist from loudspeakers.
‘It’s honestly ridiculous’
Details are still being finalized, most notably the decibel level of the pumped-in noise. But as long as some stadiums have fans and others don’t, the argument over an unfair playing field persists. Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott made his thoughts clear on Monday in a conference call with reporters.
“I think it’s honestly ridiculous that there will be, on the surface, what appears to be a playing field that’s like that, inconsistently across the league with the different away stadiums,” McDermott said.
McDermott’s Bills will play home games for the foreseeable future without fans in the stands. Meanwhile, they’ll face AFC East road games against the Dolphins and potentially the New England Patriots with supporters in the stands.
It’s fair for McDermott to be upset.
But in a season where football is going on amid a deadly pandemic, a level playing field in terms of crowd noise falls pretty far down the list of priorities. The debate of real concern here is whether the NFL should be taking public health risks in the first place by inviting crowds of any size.
