So are you supporting tonight’s game being played? My view isn’t uninformed. I can think for myself.
I’m not being unreasonable. Putting out arbitrary numbers for an event and to not attend is not the best way to keep people up to date.

You're fixated on a number of people as if that matters. Whether it's 5,000 or 20,000. Doesn't matter. Focusing on the number as being arbitrary is a senseless argument. Your view is uninformed when you want to rely on people staying home if they're sick. Or people taking the proper precautions. Asking people not to attend large gatherings is not about keeping people up to date. You're all over the place with this.

I said if they play like they did say they’d get killed today and Thursday. I believe you told me they won’t play that way cause their poop is tight

No, I told you their poop is tight because they've won 9 games in a row!

theres a 1 in 700,000 chance of being struck by lightning. In comparison, the rate of corona virus in the US is about 1 in 327,200. Idk if you are good with numbers, probably not, but that is an extremely low percentage.

I was wondering where all the tin foil was at when i went shopping today. Maybe find yourself a bubble to roll around in to protect yourself

Except one thing infects others, and grows exponentially as it does. What's the point of comparing current rates? It's only going to grow.

I’m glad their poop is tight regardless of how they play.

I expect they will lean heavily on the top 2 pairs tonight unless we get a good lead.

Ok its time to shut down everything in an area where there is a confirmed case.
Declare mandatory quarantine, close businesses, schools etc. Patrol the streets and arrest non essential personal traveling.
In fact a New York area has quarantined a neighborhood. Well there is a high number of cases. I get it for that area.
IMO officials would have been better off saying that yes larger groups of people bring a higher chance of coming in contact with an infected person. Judge for yourself if attending an event is what you want to do. If you are sick stay home.
If there is not a community infection happening then the chances of catching the virus is very low. Berate the CDC doctor for basically stating that very thing.


Obviously there is a higher chance to contract the virus where there is a higher concentration of people.
It's people like you who want to silence a differing view that are the problem. Explain to me where I stated that stopping large events is wrong. That was never my point. So go home hide in the closet and when the world stops being risky let us all know.
I'm well aware of what's going on. So the two doctors I talked to today who work where there was a confirmed case believed the hysteria by some was overblown.
The patient was sent home and told to stay home.

I shouldn't post on a public board about this? So, your on a board of a sports team who is playing a game that could be attended by thousands of people. Shouldn't they be condemned? Shouldn't all the fans the organization and the league be condemned for not suspending the game or at least closing the venues to fans?
Using your logic I'm waiting for the condemnation.

We can argue after the game.


Flyers looking good.

Your only point is to defend your argument at any cost. Pretty amazing my point was basically the same as the flyers official statement.
My original post was a comment on a city official putting out a number for the size of an event that should make you reconsider attending. My point was what good does a made up figure do.
I’ve largely stated what CDC officials and health dept officials have said to do so how am I uninformed?

I’ve noticed sanheim greatly improve his board play and increasing his physicality in that area over the course of the year
