Semantics. If you have kids in sports, it is as much life as work or school. It dominates the fridge and travel schedule. Sports dominates the daily schedules of college athletes and they live by these schedules. Its also a billion dollar business and millions of lives affected from players to workers so yes, sports is life or at least a big part of life for many of us.
Sure, which is why you made the last statement you did, asking "Who's Clay Travis?" It's ok, man. Most Clay people are closeted over here, anyway.
I'm not just being a downer. Positive thinking alone doesn't actually do anything-- or at least I don't think it does, maybe it does for some people in some ways. And I am not saying should shut everything down, no football, etc. But we can't keep just thinking it is resolving itself to justify action or inaction. We had these same kind of conversations in June. Same. By a narrative of "it is getting better" becoming popular, it changes people's behaviors and then things trend bad again. It is better to think of it like the bands of hurricane than like a single storm that has passed. There is still a hurricane. But I am not saying we should shut down again or not play football. I don't think we can shut down again. I have no idea what is right on football. Or school. But I do know the idea of "it is getting better, we'll just move on" is not going to lead to good reactions as conditions develop.
I think overall things are trending upwards, but that doesn't mean we're not going to have ups and down as the virus finds areas that haven't been hit hard. Hopefully we'll keep making progress on the vaccine and treatments.
Says the guy who asked if I was 12, and then used yo instead of spelling out year old. Are there any emoji's you need to add to this conversation?
You know, I was saying this to my wife the other day. "Cancel church? Well, I guess it is for the general welfare, the greater good. What? Cancel Football? WHAT THE [uck fay] ARE YOU [uck fay]ING KIDDING ME???"
