      And now we see why the B1G decided to not have fans at the game. 

       

      The B1G still messed up a lot.

      I’m pretty sure the 10,000 or so fans that stormed the field at the end were not social distancing.

      Quality education they get down there in South Bend.

  3. Damn... I'm in tears. Andy Hoffman is a hell of a dad and human being. Stay strong brother. f#&% cancer.

  7. I'm feeling good about this season. I think our bad joo joo went about 450 miles south to Norman. The Sooners literally finding was not to win the games this season. Reminds me of our last 20 years.

      I hope our coaches can see how much special teams failures are hurting even very good teams coming out of Covid. Kick offs need to go to the end zone, punts need great hang time or angled away from the returner and tackling needs to be on point. Coaches brought in enough guys this year to fix last years problems hopefully.

      If nothing else, it's apparent there is more to winning than recruiting rankings and vegas favorites, especially this season. Lots of upsets so far.

  8. I shaved my beard off today. Now after every drink I take I go to suck the liquid off my stache, but there's nothing there. I don't know who I am anymore! It's a cold world out here!!!

      The fiancee (who wanted it shaved) asked if I can grow it back in time for he wedding. I think I won this round fellas!

  9. I wish they would turn off this fake crowd noise in the empty stadiums. It'd be cool just hearing pads popping and players talking.

      I started playing fanatsy football again, so I've been watching more NFL this year. Plus that GaTech FSU game was pretty good. 

       

      It was comical to see the Lions are still the Lions in 2020. Somethings will never change. Come out looking like Superbowl contenders for 3 quarters and choke it away in the 4th.

      The Lions have NEVER looked like Superbowl contenders. :P:lol:

      They were smoking the Bears in the first half. They really did look pretty good, but then they did that thing they do so well.

  10. And so it begins...

      Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe go f....

       

      The first teams of the major conferences who are still playing begin "postponing" dates. The dominos will fall.

  11. So 2020's got that going for it. Which is nice.

      Dang it, wrong again.:angry:  I predicted alien invasion for August and supervolcano for September. But I am getting close to a bingo for 2020. 

       

  14. Such a wonderful feeling when you start a dead sprint and your hamstring goes... Pop!  :hmmph

     

    The best part is it doesn't even hurt, you just instantly know it's wrong.

      It's fine, just a little sore today. Probably be back at it again by next week. Guess I should stick to biking and jogging from now on :lol:

      Warm ups are important! I always do a good dynamic warmup before HIIT type stuff for that very reason.

      A slow, graded return to full activity is the way to go. Hit me up if you want any specific exercises to slowly ramp it back up to 100%.

  15. It's 1997 without the wins!

  20. Best part about living in the Detroit metro. Having the window open at night and hearing motorcycle and cars drag racing down the highway. Almost makes up for not having thunderstorms.

      Well, eating cereal any place other than at home is a bit awkward. jmo

       

      BTW, I have no idea who “she” is or what this is in regards to.

      Somebody learned somethings on the father daughter road trip!

  22. Going to the grocery store for the first time since our stay at home order was surreal...

     

    It was like a dystopian movie or something. Shelves are still mostly empty. People are just kind of in a daze walking slowly through the store, befuddled that they can't find what they want. 50% of the shoppers are wearing masks and/or gloves. The speakers are playing PSAs from government officials and doctors. Every register has a plexiglass shield to separate you and the cashier. It was so odd...

      Stores near me have mostly returned to normal. Only a certain number of people are allowed in the store at the same time, so sometimes there's a line outside, and a 6 ft distance is kept in the lines. And there are restrictions on how many of certain items you can buy, but otherwise pretty normal with everything stocked.

    2. Enhance

      My local grocery store was 'mostly' normal but there were a few oddities, mainly the meat counter had virtually nothing on display, 70-80% of the meat coolers were empty, and toilet paper was nowhere to be found.

       

      Otherwise, mostly normal. I'm largely a perimeter shopper at the stores. Very rarely buy anything out of the aisles and since you can't stock up on produce I've had a pretty decent go of things.

    3. ZRod

      ZRod

      I'm like you @Enhance, but it's hard not to notice. There was limited meat selection, but better than it was last week. The actual meat counter was closed and empty. Zero flour and sugar on the shelf. Canned foods were half empty, as was pasta. Frozen veggies were barren. And I still haven't seen toilet paper or paper towels in stock.

  23. So, a friend who is a nurse was approached by some pretty major national news outlets to potentially do a "Diary" type thing of her experience as she treats COVID patients. She wants to do it to speak out about how under prepared everyone is, not specifically her place of employment.

     

    The fiancée and I fully support her, but I'm pretty nervous about her potentially getting reprimanded by her employer, or even fired. Any ideas how she could CYOA legally to protect against any retribution?

      I guess one thing to think about it...is as a nurse (if she lost her gig) she would have a new one before she cleaned out her locker.

    3. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      If the news outlet can't/won't give her a contract to replace her salary, if it comes to that, then there probably isn't any way for her to CYOA. She needs to realize she is basically on her own legally and then decide what she wants to do.

    4. JJ Husker

      JJ Husker

      @teachercd Maybe, maybe not. Even in this environment potential new employers may want recent work history or recommendations. Hospitals will always frown upon exposé type stuff.

  24. This whole quarantine thing seems to work better than a fiber one bar.

      So YOU'RE the one who's been hoarding all the toilet paper!

      Negative Ghost Rider. I probably have half a pack left of Costco TP I bought earlier this year. Haven't need to restock yet.

  25. Who the eff decided that we need to hoard TP??? This is so stupid!

    1. The Dude

      The Dude

      The CDC told us to stock up 2 weeks of supplies in case of a quarantine.  I guess people took that to mean 9 months worth of toilet paper.
