This is why the media cannot be trusted, period.

Just three years longer than you...I understand internet forums are mostly cess pools, but have always considered this one a little more level headed because of the commonality we all share of sports cards.

I have listened to several health professionals talk about this concept and how we will be able to look back and compare year over year to see the likely spike caused by COVID19 and give us a "better" number.

People aren’t allowed to be themselves on here due to the “TOS” or rules. If people could speak freely you would think differently of some of those on the other side and even some of those on your side.

Oppression is a private business

Cursing. It's the lack of cursing.

I hate when people make too much sense in this section of BO.
Keep the sense-making in the Basketball section.

This section is for play, goofing around and once in a blue moon, we are serious.

You bet! Just order up the # you need - CNN will get it on the air for you.

Not sure if it was you that told me about the LockdownSkepticism subreddit but that has been overthrown from within and its mods are now blocking posts critical of certain governors.

People using this term conspiracy theorists should look up where that term came from. Your government has been lying to you for over a hundred years.
So keep believing what they tell you and the CDC, WHO and any of those organizations.
AKA= sheep. bah bah

I think it was Friday evening when they opened up.

I hear it though, the days sometimes feel like weeks.
