Season ticket holders are getting a survey on Covid.
Season ticket holders are getting a survey on Covid.
Yep. I filled mine out already.
Some interesting questions in the survey...one asked if I'd take more tickets to fewer games (I have 2 seats). In other words, say 4 tickets to 4 games.
I'd rather have my 2 seats for a few games and apply the $$ towards 2021 for games I can't attend. Who knows how this will be handled.

could be just me? but i have a few media Rants that may help meself by just getting them out ?..
1) Camps won't open end of July.. This league is just to slow at doing anything..and Both sides rarely agree on anything..I might image a October start.. if any
2) the data from Baseball & NBa/NHL re-starts won't even have time to show any real data, that shows any affects on what smaller roster teams could show..
3) Helmets? have ya heard some of these bright idea's? The only picture that comes to my mind is the scene from Apollo 13
run in a cloth mask and see if that thing don't become a nose booger by halftime ?..
I can't envision a spat visor extending to cover players own mouth either.. where will the visor end? with no risk to his own throat? Or another players dis-attached finger? I've been in one, when that unexpected loose rivet cracks that shield..that will get ugly
4) Waivers-- sure some players may opt out from playing this season at all.. Players will fail covid testing... so let's not get the cart out in front of the horses... by setting cut down roster limits before we even start

I answered the survey, and thought that a moronic idea. I live 600 miles away. Many times I have a hard time finding someone to take my 1 extra. What the hell am I going to do with 6 tickets? As for me, I don't plan on any games. They will give you a credit or refund your money.

Oh yeah take me back to those Woodstock days......great music.
Back in those days, bands spoke more truth in their songs. CCR - they nailed it. 'Nam was such a bull s--- war. And we haven't escaped the clutches of the industrial military complex since.

The late 60s and early 70s rock music, my undergrad college years.....great era for music, cars and bikes ! Loved it.

It was meant to be disrespectful to those who sent them to die. Were you even around in those times?

Well, there's a few ways to interpret it. I think they were mocking needless death, so in that way, it was not disrespectful. Trying to wake people up.

I was just weed whacking out front, and a woman drove by super, super slow, wearing a mast with a clipboard. I think she was narcing on anyone not wearing a mask. F that I was outside in my front yard. They can kiss my arse.

Weed whacking? You should be wearing safety glasses.

100 years ago people routinely died from small cuts due to infection and sepsis - those were the most common cause of death in peacetime. Then antibiotics came, and it looked for a while like mass diseases were confined to history.
We may not be dying of microbes as much as we used to, but viruses are still with us, and in a way it was IMO a question of time. However, our society IMO is unprepared for it. The crude mortality rate (deaths/population) halved in the US between 1905 and 2005 (from about 1.66% to about 0.825%).
Maybe the last 70 years (from the end of WW2) could be more of a historical death rate aberration than the unchecked progress everyone (including me) assumed it was.
More and more countries that have cleared the virus out are and will be forming trade and travel bridges to each other. And that growing incentive should motivate other countries to take this virus seriously. Either that or stay a pariah nation. Health is now the global passport, and nobody trusts the US any more.
Sure you have a bunch of whingers complaining about masks because of rights they have on their own private property. OK. But they do not get to go into stores, government offices, public or private transport, restaurants, etc. without one. Doesn't matter how small their gun is, their right to be comfortable does not trump other people’s right to not get infected. Does this sound too hard to do? Tell that to the people that twice had to give everything up to fight a world war last century. It can be done so long as the will to do so is there.
I’ve been preached to about “Responsibility” all my life from the same people who now run around ignoring theirs. You actually want the “Economy” back in working order? Save the humans who constitute it.

Very true ! I've been battling with a tunneling hip wound for 6 years now mainly on/off but it has been serious at times and with some of the latest and in some cases "last chance" antibiotics.
I'm dealing with asteotomylitis (infection) of the femur and maybe pelvis right now with a maintenance antibiotic that I may be on for the rest of my life which is not a good thing when you're dealing with "bugs" and I'm almost 70. I spent 25 weeks last year with two surgeries and the hospitalization and rehab last year. My ID (infectious disease) doctor told me this year that they can't do that anymore in my case.
I don't care how big and bad and in good shape you are these microbes can get you. I've had a nasty kidney infection, sepsis and several bouts with asteotomylitis now it can wear you out.
And some people think that a panvirus with no vaccine is no big thing......wrong !

Funny how you "Law and Order" types flip on a dime when the law or order in question doesn't make you personally feel good.
Quoting your very own Gorsuch from the McGirt decision last Thursday : “Unlawful acts, performed long enough and with sufficient vigor, are never enough to amend the law.”
Real Americans wear masks - and in most municipalities, once you close the door, it's the law whether you like it or not.
