Will Any Major Sports Events Take Place Before The 2020 College Football Playoffs?

[user4]

That's why I differed with user4 as a blanket statement about all coaches. Popovich is another good example, as is Steve Kerr. I agree the majority of the coaches have only a one-track mind but there are a few who stand out as well rounded.

It is very possible that Popovich and Kerr simply scratch us where we want to itch in a way that helps us see that in fact we are enlightened.

Im not saying that all coaches are imbeciles, Im saying that to win where the stakes are the highest takes a very special kind of person and it is not an idiot that can go toe to toe with the SEC in football and win. Dabo is painful for me to listen too. But not much less than Pete Carroll or Bill Belichick or Steve Kerr. He is a person that is completely and totally dedicated to the very very complex sport of NCAA D1 football. He is kicking ass, I never thought he could do it at Clemson but he did. You dont do that if you are borderline retarded.

NFL Hits 3 Coaches And Teams With Large Fines For Not Wearing Face Masks

The NFL has fined several head coaches $100,000 for not wearing face masks on the sidelines — a safety precaution that is required at games during the COVID-19 pandemic. The coaches' teams were also punished, with $250,000 fines.

Seems totally over the top to me, especially given the attitude of the man at the top towards C19.

Have I mentioned that Dabo Swinney has the intelligence of a mutant turtle?

Come on Bambam, why insult mutant turtles

Damnation. Now you hate lampshades.

What does one have to do with the other?

I didn't say Dabo Swinney was borderline retarded. I never mentioned borderline.

A negative test doesn't prove that you're not infected which is why NBA players are wearing masks away from the court despite being in a bubble.

Then every player should wear a mask 100% of the time. Otherwise, it is theater.

No shit, Sherlock!

This is a textbook example of a straw man.

This is a textbook example of a straw man.

?!
'Straw man' refers to the 'straw man fallacy' - trying to refute an argument by attacking a subset of the argument which is not central to the original argument.
Saying everyone should wear a mask 100% of the time is merely drawing a conclusion that is not supported by the facts in evidence - nor does it support or refute the contention discussed.
But I get your point!

According to Merriam-Webster: straw man: - a weak or imaginary opposition (such as an argument or adversary) set up only to be easily confuted

Your explanation of the NBA setup makes no sense unless it is just theater. If tests are so ineffective that players must wear masks off the court, then they should wear them ON the court as well.

I don't want to add a red herring to a straw man argument, but isn't the NBA text book "theater" ?
