Why does Kevin Warren have a job?

-


 I am aware I have been beating this drum pretty hard lately, but I am not gonna stop til this man is fired. This guy is such a joke. This man stated that it was unsafe to play college football, cancelled the season for thousands of kids, doubled down on saying it was unsafe, and then sent his kid to play college football. That alone should have him fired for being an idiot. You cannot say the risk is too great and then send your own kid to play. The kind way to look at it is that he's a hypocrite. The not so kind take is that he knows the coronavirus is not a real threat, but won't admit the season was cancelled to take away the leverage for a player's association. The one small hope I have for this situation is that the discontent seems to be spreading among the coaches, players, and staff at the B1G programs. ESPN posted an article about the general attitude around the B1G and it is not good. "Been in this league for 20-plus years," a league source told ESPN. "This has been embarrassing." This quote from the article seems to reflect the general attitude around the league. Coaches are mad. Iowa AD Gary Barta has said it will be "gut-wrenching" to watch college football played in other conferences. There was also a bombshell report that says all 14 AD's in the B1G wanted to move forward with the season, but were never included in the discussions with the presidents and chancellors. All in all, it was a bad situation made worse by a severe lack of communication and transparency all caused by one man. That man needs to be fired. Now.

$1200 for 10 weeks

I think the entire package provides economic relief overall for about 10 weeks," Mnuchin told CBS's "Face the Nation." "Hopefully we will kill this virus quicker and we won't need it, but we have liquidity to put into the American economy to support American workers and American business." So, ol' Steve is getting murdered online for this quote. Secretary Mnuchin say $1200 dollars will last 10 weeks. This is popping up all over twitter, facebook, and my news feed. Wake the fuck up people. He isn't referring to the stimulus check. He is referring to the 2.2 trillion (best guess because the people who wrote it don't know the price tag) package. The whole fucking thing. The one where you are a guaranteed to qualify for unemployment if you lost your job due to coronavirus. The one that gives small business loans. The one that gives any waitress making $300 a week roughly $800 a week in unemployment benefits. This is why the news sucks. CNN, MSNB

The 61 year old potato farmer that stunned the world.

Ladies and gentlemen, sit back and hear the story of  Cliff Young . He has seemed to enter the realm of half myth, half truth that surrounds all greats but his story is remarkable. Full disclosure: I got this story from a guest pastor at church Sunday. Here we go.  In 1983, people were gathered for the Australia ultra marathon. A 543 mile race from Sydney to Melbourne. Most competitors were in their twenties or thirties and had extensive training and corporate sponserships. Into this group walked a 61 year old man wearing faded overalls and rubber work boots. His name was Cliff Young. He was a sheep and potato farmer from just outside Melbourne. Most considered him a joke at best, delusional at worst. Several journalists questioned if he would survive. This is where the myth/truth comes into play. Some accounts have him running in overalls. Others say he wore windbreakers with holes cut by hand for ventilation. One account claims he wore 10 pairs of running shoes throughout the race. W

B1G has cancelled football.

-
 The B1G and PAC 12 have cancelled fall sports.  Here  is the B1G official statement. I have been thinking about this and getting steadily more upset ever since 1:45 PM. This is horrible. I have avoided really shitting on the COVID-19 media coverage too much because I didn't want to deal with the trolling and "yOu THinK cOroNavIruS iS faKe IF yOu qUEstioN anYthIng!" crowd. I am done. Bring on the trolls. This decision has nothing to do with the coronavirus. The B1G, as a whole, is not concerned about player safety per coronavirus. Nothing has changed in the overall COVID-19 numbers between when they announced the season schedule and when they cancelled. The schedule was announced August 5. Per the  CDC report release July 31  hospitalization rate was 130.1 per 100,000 and mortality rate was 8.4% if you include pneumonia, influenza, and COVID-19 deaths. The  report released August 7   has hospitalization at 137.6 per 100,000 and mortality rate at 7.8% if you include pneumo
