We can do it, but it will take decades and the whole time they’ll be pissed off and raising their aggressiveness towards us any way they can along the way.

Maybe tell them to ask Russia how that turned out.

Who was it in here that mentioned random testing? Appears to be on the table.

Oh yeah, I forgot that we ran up a $380B trade deficit with the USSR from our 1% of trade we did with them. You’re right.

Company wide conference call today. Had a significant pay cut dropped on us because elective surgery volume is down. Thankful to have a job when many don’t, but...still on the hook for all of our call, sleeping in the stupid hospital on 24 hour shifts, and taking care of these patients in the highest risk manner possible (intubating). We’ve got 20 patients in-house, 5 intubated at last count.

One of my friends up in Boston intubated 3 overnight in the same shift at a relatively small community hospital. They're getting their surge now.

But hey, it's all a hoax.

Wait so getting into an arms race and bringing down the Soviet Union was bad???

This guy. AP Stats continues to be the most valuable class I ever took. So right now roughly 150K people in the US were confirmed to have had it. I assume (or maybe just hope) it’s 10X+ that as it means even more people are asymptomatic. With a random sample of 2500 tests you should get a pretty accurate idea of how widely this is spread.

Husband of the woman with the pneumonia problems from mid November was in tonight. He said her docs think she had it.

How about Asshoo can keep making toys and the US takes back the 90% of vital medical supplies (surprise) they currently make.

 

[cole854]

IF we can control a second wave, I can see basketball starting with conference play in January. But most of us can easily see scenarios where both sports start up and have to stop because of a few cases.

This will probably never get to "zero" in terms of new cases, either newly contracted or newly diagnosed. You won't have a start/stop with sports so the powers at hand will need to determine what is the plan in regards to the level we are at in terms of resuming play.

Football being 5 months out...basketball approx 8 months...they will watch closely how society is doing when people start going back to work, eating out, as well as other sports like PGA Tour and MLB.

No, we weren’t dependent on the Soviet Union for anything at the start like we are with China. They have more power to mess with us from the start, like they doing are now. With the USSR, we were the clear leader in the clubhouse after WWII and everyone else was devastated. Right now, against China, we are much more flat-footed and largely dependent on them to run our own society.

So, basically, we got too rich and naively allowed ourselves to be reliant on a corrupt politburo who lie as a habit, correct?

Noted. Don't make the same mistake twice, I guess.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Just my take.

- It won't happen but the only platform I want to hear anyone running for national office push after we get our arms around this bat flu is a rollback on Rising Sun dependence. Would actually have a modicum of respect for a politician who found their balls or *** (looking at you Sinema) to call the CCP to the carpet AND back it up.

- How many baseball players have played their last game and don't already know it? You've got a handful of guys approaching 40 plus however old Pujols really is. With a year off, do they go through the whole offseason / spring training again or just hang it up and play 18 every day?

- Speaking of, was set to hit up the Nats 4th of July homestand against those godless, soulless bastards from Houston and heckle the **** out of Bregman and Altuve. Guess that's got a slim chance of taking off :chairshot:

- Golf should really be taking advantage of this opportunity to corner the viewing market. If you can't get a full ensemble together and play tour stops, at least throw together a few make-shift tournaments and give folks something to kill a hung over Sunday afternoon.

- Paul's Fruit Market has absolutely crushed the game with their supply chain arrangement. In there almost every day and the place is as stocked as it was on a random Tuesday two months ago. Probably has something to do with their lack of processed food on hand.

- Met someone right at the start of 'Operation House Arrest' and it feels like the touched up plot to a Stanley Kubrik meets John Hughes Rom-Com.

Also pretty sure the gyero illuminati could finally fund the Sports Bar if they noodled out a script for Hollywood with that premise.

- Anyone else slightly concerned about Joey's in-depth knowledge of communist countries? Me neither

 

[PTI Anon1640710541]

The Angels still owe Pujols $59 million, plus another $1 million a year for a decade after that for promo stunts and other nonsense.

Seems like a bargain.

-- Golf should really be taking advantage of this opportunity to corner the viewing market. If you can't get a full ensemble together and play tour stops, at least throw together a few make-shift tournaments and give folks something to kill a hung over Sunday afternoon.

Golf writer proposed doing something similar in a recent column by having shotgun starts with half a dozen top players or so...nothing too crazy. They could space the cameras/commentators out well enough to keep it in a comfort zone...much more so than we do right now playing at our own clubs. TV ads/viewers would be off the charts.

 

[PTI Anon1640710541]

It would be great, but I think we really should trust our President in this time of crisis. Stay home until May. No groups of more than 5. Only leave the home for necessities. The President is right. This is no time for golf and fun.

 

[cole854]

When this bug hits close to home, you give it more respect. I am a clean freak by nature and have been cloroxing anything and everything....but found out a close friend's wife was diagnosed. She is doing ok, and will recover, but had a couple of unpleasant days. Common sense and so forth...stay safe.

Global pandemic, trade war with China, national detox from cheap goods, upcoming recession.

So now is the time where the secret society of people that run our lives and this country need to step forward and reset the 2020 election. “Yeah uh, see this footnote in the Constitution, the one that says if the country elects a reality TV star who tweets at dead rappers and a old guy that probably has onset dementia during a national crisis...then we get to pick two other smart, boring but ruthless people for each side to vote on? Don’t worry, they’ll still have the basic red flag positions on social issues that most of you vote on and distinguish D from R. What? Of course they had red ink back in those days, don’t worry about it the first debate is in May.”

 

[Brandan Stroud]

Viktor Orban could maybe step in for a minute or two and just see what it's like. Just spitballing

 

[rudd1]

-we were *literally* feeding the soviets, they would have starved without us.

-whilst the situation with our current "red menace" isn't quite the same...we still have a good deal of leverage, and we were applying that leverage for the first time in decades, then pandemic happens. We will get back on track.

-at a minimum, china needs to stop receiving benefits of being called a "developing economy" by the wto and such. They also need to be made to comply with "1st world" environmental regs...and we nwed to boot them out of our institutions of higher learning. "Confucius Institute" is cover for stealing intellectual property *at best*...and more likely a base for spying/subterfuge.

-as someone said earlier: china has bought (with our money, lulz) a lot of africa and se asia...expanding their "sphere of influence"(thats a sexy cold war phrase, amirite?), and European govts/many intellectuals are still** infatuated with Marxism. Decoupling will be tough...but it can be done.

**i suggest reading Jean Francois Revel's "How democracies perish"...it details the last couple of decades before the collapse of the soviets. Primarily how politicians/pundits and such thought and what they were saying about the soviets. The parallels between then and now are interesting. Germane, if you will.

/nerd.

I watched a lot Kentucky Basketball replays from the 2014 tourney run and the 14-15 season this past Saturday night. Here’s 2 things that clearly were different then:

* UK’s unis from 2010-2014 were clean, simple and 1,0000,000 better than the ******** they wear now. The non outlined block lettering KENTUCKY on the jerseys was perfect. The checkerboard nonsense is bad enough but was really drives me crazy is the bubbly script font on the jerseys currently.

* Secondly and more important, the overall talent level Kentucky had in the program during those years from top to bottom was in another league than what the program has had the last 3 seasons since the 2017-2018 year. It jumped out to me from the beginning after 5 minutes of watching the UK vs Michigan Elite 8 game. This is a problem and it’s very troubling. We can tap dance around it all we want and make reaching assertions about our overall recruiting efforts but from 2009-2018 we had fng dudes and more dudes on the roster. Stacking talent. Cal created a greater margin of error because of college basketball being such a fickle sport if such and such got in foul trouble, was off his game we had another dude equally as talented that could step up.

I realize we have 2 top ten players coming in next year but the margin of error will still be slim, IMO. Especially if Montgomery leaves.

My overall point is that UK is no longer getting the OVERALL same level of talent (quality & quantity)it once did and until the staff does we don’t have a realistic shot at the title.

The Harrisons were overrated, but man we had some really good times with the Harrisons. Pretty fun two year stretch there.

 

[anthonys735]

-Don't even have to decouple. Diversify and apply pressure to stop being disgusting virus breeding **** bags. If they want to go to cold war over that, good luck.

-3rd world countries have skated so far, hopefully it has to do with the climate in those areas as a lot are tropic, but obviously worrisome. If we're going to be at capacity with the number of hospitals we have, good lord.

I'll tell you a good book - "Superfudge."

This is true, but parents beware....it gives away the secret about Santa. So if your kid still believes, either keep them from reading it on their own, or read it to them and call a quick audible when you get to that page.

I know it's ridiculous, but when you've worked overtime for years to keep it a secret, the last thing you need is for it to be ruined by Judy Blume's dumb mouth.

I'd kill for another Terrence Jones. What a player. Dude could do it all.

Does he live in Hungary still? Just curious.

Obviously that wouldn't phase me, but even taking my bias out of it, Eastern Europe is a place where full on American/British style representative democracy has never really taken hold. That whole half of the continent never went whole hog on democracy, even after escaping one of the most despotic governments in history.

Given what's going on around them in the EU, probably not a bad time to have one guy calling the shots who won't put up with that ish. Maybe, for one time only, he should listen to his wife and become Catholic and then we can really start rockin' and rollin'

[UKStoleMyFish]

As much as we all miss sports -- and in particular the NCAA Tournament -- it was a year ago today that Kentucky had its second worst offensive performance of the season from a PPP standpoint and lost in the Elite 8 to the worst defensive team remaining in the Tournament, who also happened to be missing its best player.

Now that sucked.
