I'd give it a snowball's chance on my driveway tomorrow. Big Ten says all fall sports will play in-conference games only. They hope to retain flexibility And the Big Ten commissioner couldn't promise that even these games would proceed. (Oh, it's only supposed to be about 105 tomorrow here, BTW.)

Best summation of 21st century America I've seen so far. South Africa...eww. Yeah. Last 2 weeks, case numbers are skyrocketing. Looking at 1 new case per 5000 people per day, which to me kinda feels like the point where panic should be setting in. The growth is particularly bad...they went from 13th as of close of data day yesterday at WoM...to, probably, 10th today. The US is going to smash through 60,000 and set another high water mark. The dismal question is, can we stay under 70,000. OH, which, BTW...66,000 is when we get to that 1 per 5000 mark....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And have to be able to run for longer than five seconds at a time. 😛 As John Cleese once remarked, the appropriate name for American football would be, "big leather egg fight."
