And the rule of thumb is that each influenza variant infectee will transmit the disease to 7 others on average, so the numbers add up very quickly.

The biggest problems about this pandemic is that Donald Trump gutted the CDC and federal public health departments and now is engaged in a massive disinformation campaign abetted by the GOP and Fox news. No public official can say anything without Mike Pence vetting it and he has been caught lying already in spite of his claim to be a "righteous Christian". Moreover, China is a dictatorship and has been working furiously to minimize public perceptions and reports. Last week a Chinese businessman living in Hong Kong said that he had reliable information that bodies were being burned en masse on the outskirts of Wuhan but there is no way to independently verify this.

Ack! Who touched that???? Unclean! Unclean!

Swann's vulnerability to concussions may be a concern.

Too harsh- send him to watch ALL the XFL games.

In all honesty, I have never watched any part of any XFL game-past or present, nor do I intend to.

And then there are the majority who do not give a rat's butt about the latest XFL ego-trip debacle.

Sooo....a Bridge too far?

I prefer diagonal.

Please, God give us something of note to argue about or we will be soon be reduced to arguing about whether it ought to be sock-sock , shoe-shoe or sock-shoe, sock-shoe..

Disagree to an extent- Americans define success as wealth, and for that mindset, the end justifies the means,

The American judicial system is a reflection of their society, and if you think about that, it is pretty damned scary. Jailing peopl e has become big business and Democrat presidential candidate Tom Styer has gotten wealthy from it.

As regards"plethora", I think I posted this before but..... During a funeral service, the widow asked if anyone wanted to step forward and say anything. The deceased's best friend stood up and said, "May I say a word?" and the widow nodded. The friend strode to the front, said. "Plethora" and sat down. The widow, eyes brimming with tears, responded, "Thank you. That means a lot."

So....it has come to this....quoting Yosamite Sam.

"Adamant" is when you are cussing at an insect.

As weird as it sounds, that seems about right, and that is not a compliment.

Could be a late bloomer.

From 3downnation: \ The market for the CFL’s top remaining free agent might be getting even slimmer. TSN’s Farhan Lalji appeared on TSN1040 on Wednesday and it seems the Lions might be losing interest in Derel Walker. According to Lalji, the Lions are “95 percent out” on Walker — one of the best receivers in the CFL over the last number of years. Of course, things could change down the road, but for the time being, the Lions appear to be content with who they have.

Agreed. The Riders were the beneficiaries of a lot of happenstances last year, and are not likely to repeat such again. They have not improved one iota in the off-season and their resigning of Josiah St.John smacks of desperation.

And in three months the league will be the subject of trivia questions.
