Personally, I don't believe a word from the government. Trump has mislead the public with misleading statements to down right lies since COVID-19 appeared. His legacy is what matters to him...not human lives.

I'd like to believe that in my 61 years I've learned how to read people and make sound judgement calls. I prefer to let evidence build up rather than jumping to conclusions.I don't trust anyone who rolls back all our EPA protections during this crisis to further his agenda. One way or the other he is taking lives with his policies. Will the economy be back up and running on Easter like Trump insisted on?

Politics are divisive for sure.

Want to throw another wrench into the discussion? Religion!

“In three short months, just like He did with the plagues of Egypt, God has taken away everything we worship,” he said.
“God said, ‘you want to worship athletes, I will shut down the stadiums. You want to worship musicians, I will shut down Civic Centers. You want to worship actors, I will shut down theaters. You want to worship money, I will shut down the economy and collapse the stock market. You don't want to go to church and worship Me, I will make it where you can't go to church,” he added.

For what it's worth, I truly believe that God has His hand in all things so the Hulkster may have a valid point.

a lot of truth to that statement. Mostly however is this;
1. we don't know true numbers (foreign or domestic)
2. everyone is scrambling to "get it right" and therefore wrong

Geez... the boards gone down hill fast.

My ignore list is filling up.

Would be great if mods kept this forum football related (aside from FF updates).

We are good. Wife has a compromised immune system. We had to pull the kids out of school early. Two parents, indoors, full time jobs (our industries have been chaotic), with two kids under 4.... My liver is not happy.

Hope you and your loved ones are safe and well.

Atlanta fans know better than to mess with me. They don't have a leg to stand on....

As an Atlanta citizen now, I can tell you that my BS tolerance has been tested many times over the most ridiculous arguments you can ever hear when it comes to football. Right now, they are stoked over the new uniforms and that will make them "rise up" to take the NFC south. I can only laugh at them (many are my friends), and raise a glass.
