  1. If you get the time watch the drive starting at about the 20:00 mark. Piper replaces Wilson after the first couple of plays. At the end of the drive NU had a sophomore center, freshman right tackle, and freshman left guard in and they were rolling OSU. https://youtu.be/JCP3Rck1AXE
  2. I agree overall but are you saying Ethan Piper didn't play well when he was in for Wilson? The drive where NU tied the game up at 14 he looked really good to me. I can see him taking Wilson's spot soon.
  3. I know it was only a 3rd. 2 but the line push at the 24:20 mark is really encouraging. Totally out schemed OSU on that play but what I liked was the quickness by Piper on the pull. How many times over the past 10 years or so has the oline been blown up in that situation especially against quick dlines like OSU? Here the oline pushed OSUs dline five yards down field. Easy first down. This bodes well for the future not only from a talent standpoint but moreso from a confidence standpoint. I was really happy by the play of both lines, d and o. That's where this thing is going to get turned around.
  4. I suppose you're right. I just seems so surrenderish.
  5. I learned that if I see another fair catch on a kickoff, when you need a spark as an underdog, I'll blow lao khao and somtom all over my tv
  6. Ok, put a drive together and take a lead into the half
  7. Oh good. I thought it was covid.
  8. Good Lord the amount of backseat driving and whining in this thread is incredible. We have football. It's like you all are golfers or something.
  9. You're reading the data wrong. It's not showing that people died of other causes and covid just happened to be along for the ride. That's an flawed interpretation. The hospital is filling out the cause of death... pneumonia..check...caused by covid...check. That falls then into the 94% who had comorbidity. Are there cases of people having pneumonia from other causes the they contract covid sure? Sure, but how that gets separated out of the data is impossible to determine now. This really is why excess deaths plays a role but even that isn't a perfect analysis. Where did you ever come up pneumonia can't be induced from a covid infection? It certainly can be. I'll just leave it at that. This isn't going to go anywhere anyway.
  10. It is pretty maddening. And in the end is making our individual decisions tough to make.
  11. I don't think it's new information or changes anything. With almost any disease, it's a complex that kills, whether factors were present before or in some cases covid induced after contracting. So it's not surprising that 94% are listed that way.
  12. Again, that's not what it means. It's how the death certificate was filled out. That number is "covid only" as written on the death certificate. If you have a manageable condition, diabetes, etc, and covid kills you, you probably will be listed with a comorbidity and thus not fall into the 10,000 death category. In fact, it appears you could be without a pre-existing condition, then contract covid, die from covid induced respiratory failure for instance, and the cause of death would not be listed as "covid only". It could be listed as both. It depends on how the death certificate is filled out. This matters because people are now running around thinking the lethality is far less than it is. That's not what this data shows.
  13. It's not saying 6% were an "actual covid death", it's saying the death certificate listed covid as the sole cause of death. If covid caused respiratory failure then the certificate most likely would list both respiratory failure AND covid as the cause of death and in this situation this death would not fall into the 6% stat. If someone has diabetes which is being managed and yet contracts covid and gets kicked over, then most likely this would fall into the 94% that died with a comorbidity, even though they would have continued to live a functioning life for the foreseeable future. Now people are running with this and immediately playing the conspiracy card.
  14. He said he doubts it'll be 98% effective, not that he doubts an effective vaccine will be developed.
  15. The mental gymnastics you have to go through to believe that all the media and all the governments around the world got together to make this situation into the s#!t show it is now is impressive. It's like you're pulling off a Tsukahara. Where did they hold the convention anyway? Sometimes Occam's razor needs to apply. Isn't it possible that this is a virus, nasty as it may be, and we are a species just like any other on the planet in that we're suspectible to occasional plagues? Why does the situation have to be twisted into some sort of conspiracy to do what? Crash the economy? Control the masses? What?
  16. Stop. When was the last time you had SARS, MERS, measles, polio.....? It's a horrible bioweapon btw. If it was, as you claim, to have been engineered as such and it escaped, would China ever let anyone working on it out of their sight? They'd be under lock and key. How did they defect? Do you have any links to this?
  17. If you're dismissing the number of cases then you're saying it's more deadly than reported.
  18. Honest question here, does anyone know, if after all the various highly conditioned athletes who have contacted Covid "recover", have they typically regained their strength, their VO2 max levels, etc, and if so how long has that taken? Everyone keeps talking about death rates but these people are precision machines and it seems like getting this virus is like having sand dumped into your engine.
