    I know Nero said it.....I was referring to  what I was talking about:   the lack of preparedness, and the need to be better prepared in the future. 

    I don't know that the UK  was any better prepared than the US or Spain....so this shit may just be starting for you all.   Be safe.

    If you knew he said it why are you asking him who said it? ?

    I read more than I post on here and Nero comes over as a nice guy and fair poster that's why I've came to his defence here. Perhaps if you clarified what people are saying and why they are saying it, before going  'off on one',  then you wouldn't need to be so aggressive in forcing your opinion down everyone's throat.

    Keep safe.

    You need to take things in context by reading the preceding thread wherein we were talking about domestic production of PPE and ventilators. then he diverted into about how bad it was that  the ventilators were being confiscated.  And my comment here was "who was talking about that"...the context being....that that was never even a point of discussion (in fact I didn't even know it had happened.)...the question I guess should have been "who else here is talking about that?"  

    Again....read things in context...don't jump into the middle or end of a conversation and make ASSumptions about what has been said before without having the full picture.

    Take a chill pill Gomer or some of that  sour wine you are touting.  I can clarify what I am saying......but I can't account for what others say.  And, again, if you would take things in their context...instead of, again, making those assumptions, perhaps THAT would clear things up for you.  

    Keep safe. 

    You too.

    There's also a difference between siderial (star) and synodic time.

    As IF we all did not know that... pfft... C'mon, h, that's insulting...

    Did anybody know that? I didn't know that...

    He didn't because to do so would mean having to read an entire 5-line post...

    Again, not a word of contribution to the issue.  Just  kunthole snark.

    But there have been cases of people who've recovered, tested negative, and then later test positive and have it again.

    That wouldn't bode well for developing a vaccine. It's a moving target- To think we know everything about this virus in six months would be pretty naive.

    You are not capable of such a feat.   There is nothing you have ever said that has been useful or instuctive here...or contributive to much in the way of a substantive conversation.

    Oh, well, maybe you know how to analyze offensive line techniques....that is...just...wond..ereeeeeeeeeeeefffffullllllllllllllZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.  

    Oh, sorry. fell asleep.

  • Apparently the Browns uniforms will be released for public consumption a week from today, April 15th. Obviously no big gala like last time, probably just released to the social networks.

    And now we go back to your regularly scheduled program "Gipper's Never Ending Attempt in Really Burning Tour". 

  • Just posted this in the netherworld... thought it warranted posting here as well.

    I haven't read the entire article... the animated graphic based upon Johns Hopkins case counts stopped me in my tracks.

    It begins at the confirmation of our first case in January and runs thru today keeping the Top Ten countries on the screen. Note that we start off in the Top Ten but get knocked out by the country of Diamond Princess.

    So...you have failed to see that it is actually the other way around but now YOU want to perpetuate it?  Thick as a brick dick. 

    Besides  what do you mean "attempt?"

    That's the way it works if you don't go along with the self-proclaimed genius in charge.

    Knowing that genius, he'll appoint the owner of CVS or RiteAid as his replacement.

    I just read that again and it kinda hit me as funny.......but on the scary side true !

    Or maybe a nice project for one of his relatives this summer.   🙁

  • And on the collegiate level...

    Apparently the idea of playing the 2020 season in the Spring of 2021 is gaining support. It could be an option for the NFL as well as I think OAK's was the last dual purpose stadium...

    Brian Allen of the Rams also has the Corona Virus. 

    I think our doctors, nurses and all those in the front lines everywhere putting their lives on the line for us WITHOUT finger-pointing in spite of being under-supplied - epitomize the true meaning of "United We Stand."  The NFL Draft gives us a temporary escape from the devastation all around us and throughout the world.

    ‘We’re beyond angered’: Fed-up nurses file lawsuits, plan protest at White House over lack of coronavirus protections

    Woman was shouting at the nurse to "Go to China if you want Communism."

    Nurse was likely thinking, "See your ass in the ER in 2 weeks." And funny thing is the nurse would bust his ass to save her.
