-i'll get the shot when its my turn. The pace at which it was developed (4.5 years had been the quickest vaccine to market) gives me pause...but my concerns are assuaged knowing that CB/1st responder types will turn into zombies prior to my low priority *** getting said innoculum. Fair warning, if you will.

-i am bemused with the perceived lack of "question authority!" sentiment/outright compliant behaviour I'm seeing from "resisters" re the vaccine. Weird, but it's whatevs...maybe "big pharma" isnt the devil/corporations aren't out to get us.

I’m getting texts about how the Nashville bombing was a plot to prevent an audit of the voting machines that gave the election to Biden. And these aren’t from people who I (before today) considered wackos. And you guys think 2021 is going to be better?

I get a 95% chance of not getting the virus by taking the vaccine or 0% because I don’t have an immune system. I’ll gladly get the shot next week that’s scheduled and the 2nd one 2-3 weeks later too.

Sorry I’m stupid I guess
Nah, it's just two different ideas. Vaccines are a way out, yes, but not the only way and shouldn't be depended on to remove ridiculous mandates these dumbass Govenors have placed on us. Especially schools. Expecting or requiring complete compliance is asinine. Including secondary enforcements like passports to fly. Can't imagine they will hold up in court anyway but that's more your game than mine.

If you feel safe getting a vaccine that's completely new technology, and very much rushed to market, then get it. I'd take it today, but I get why people would pause. For people 75 and up it's a great decision. For front line workers, people 65+ and/or high risk, or with high risk family members, probably a good decision. For normal people under 65... I think they should have the right to wait a bit and make a better decision. They're at very little risk.

FWIW, I would pick Johnson and Johnson if given the choice, 1 shot and old proven technology.

Also, ZERO % chance I'd give it to either kid. They have no risk, aren't spreaders, and because these companies aren't stupid, they haven't even be studied yet for the vaccine. Also, side effects from the mRNA(Pfizer and Moderna) seem to be more severe in the younger recipient.

I’m still waiting for my QAnon pals to tell me how 5G in my veins is a BAD thing.
Buddy in Liverpool, England has been spewing off about 5g, covid and Huawei since March. He's all in on this conspiracy. TBH, I haven't seen much of an uptick from 5G so I'm cool if it gets exposed and we go back to 4g.

You know what would save us 10-20 turnovers/bad shots a game? The most basic of Pitino’s offensive philosophy- the 1-2 step into a 3 off a kickout or swing.

- No travels
- No driving into a wall of defenders
- No charges
- No hesitation
- No stepping on the damn three point line because you’re shooting off the bounce

1-2 step into the 3. Shoot it confidently. Yoy pass up the shot, you’re coming out.

My favorite part of this season was Askew’s two drive-and-kick 3s to Mintz against Louisville.

If I see one more walk off a pass or ******** rewarding of a flop after we pass up a reasonable deep look, I’m going to lose my mind.

1-2 step. It’s that easy. Shooting is a matter of confidence.

Terry Wilson, QB of a Kentucky team that has won in the Swamp and the Dump Truck Workers Convention Neyland Stadium absolutely deserves to start and play his senior year bowl game.

Big Dawg calling the plays, C Rod hitting the hole like it was your mom, and Touchdown Terry slinging the rock just like God intended.

Another example of Cal putting being right above winning. Instead of giving him a chance at the proper time, he first ***** on fans for the opinion, then ***** on the player for not getting it done, then reshits on the fans for calling him out, then buckles under the pressure and calls it his idea.

Now when Allen doesn’t put up 20 with 5 threes in his first game, he’ll pull him again, **** on the fans for suggesting it, on Allen for not performing, and pretend to **** on himself for putting him in when wasn’t ready like he knew all along.

It’s a ******** way of trying to prove himself right publicly.No chance he gets an actual shot with the same kind of leash as Boston, et al.

Don't see where this fits into the GOOOOOOO! offense philosophy...

Mashburned was a ***** in the best of times. He is happy right now so eff him.

I “quit“ after the Wisconsin game just like Cal did. Turns out I was right!

(I still watched almost every game of this **** sandwich year)

For some reason Cal’s recruiting changed. I don’t know why, but I have my theory. I also live under a 5G tower, TMFS.

No, he needs to change his recruiting ways. I don’t know if it was his staff, he became more “selective”, or what, but he needs to get all the best players again.

The “****** the last 5 years we’re basically Tubby teams!” Narrative that everyone keeps repeating is getting exhausting. We had very good teams in 2017, 2019, and 2020. Don’t care what anyone says. This year is pure **** and is probably a manifestation of his biggest issue (everyone leaving, even 2nd rounders) but the Cal hate has almost turned into a caricature of itself. Chumps would be the most positive poster on rr right now

Maye’s shot rims out. Johnson follows up strong. Different conversation.

Virus mutations tend to get less fatal as they progress, the virus tries to promulgate and NOT kill its host... this is why herd immunity happens. So who gives a **** about other strains.

Some of us Covid “survivors” are now experiencing parosmia... which is tasty.

I went for some precautionary heart tests to see if Covid atrophied anything... thank goodness I don’t have any repercussions.

long story short- take the ******* shot when offered.

Sparks gets that obvious and-1 in 2005 against Michigan State. Bogans ankle doesn't get effed by Wisconsin. Different conversation.

Cal doesn't get a pass for Elite 8 failures if prior coaches don't.

Cool, Tubby has 2 what if’s his entire tenure and Cal has 3 in his last 4 years alone.

People are venting. Hell it’s our only outlet.

Covid, the football team was a little bit of a letdown (although I’m fine with the overall state of the program) we knew the winter would suck but at least we had the best tandem we’ve had coming in since Fox/Monk and a new NBA style offense. Nobody from within the program pumped the breaks this was a full on “WEAR YOUR MASK WE HAVE TO PLAY!” hypefest lead by Cal.

...and now we are here, with Mr. I Can’t Hide You complaining about having to schedule a bad Notre Dame squad.

He’s brought all this **** upon himself and I personally need to tune him out because he’s gone full blown heal with me at this point, blaming the fanbase and tossing kids under the bus is Pitino BS and not the good UK Era Pitino, the Gobot UL post championship Pitino that Cal mindeffed.

Shut up, be humble and for the love of all the Basketball Bennies out there show us something different on offense. Some, any form of modern basketball.

I’ll eat this plate of crap we are calling a season if we could have the Saban like epiphany from Cal. But he doubles down in every public appearance at this point.

In other words, the Cal hate is a little much but I get it.

Man, viruses are way smarter than I thought. Those tiny little brains they have must be spectacular!
