    MLS is Back Tournament - 2020

    Anybody that thinks I owe them an apology can discuss it directly with me. They haven’t, but you’re using it as a straw man after calling me a prick and an asshole and being called out for it by LionNYC Hypocrisy is still a hell of a drug for you, as is logic & science since 4 players tested...

    MLS is Back Tournament - 2020

    Whether at intake or afterwards, they are part of the bubble, and have been, from the time of the test to the time of the results. There is zero chance they haven’t interacted with other players.

    MLS is Back Tournament - 2020

    You still haven’t apologized to me. Contact with players or not, Germs live on surfaces. That’s science. 4 players tested positive in the bubble while in contact with their teammates. The protocols are flawed. That’s a fact.

    MLS is Back Tournament - 2020

    Whoever put together the logistics of this “bubble” should be fired. They didn’t include an intermediate “airlock” quarantine before entering the bubble, much like security doors/vestibule to get into a secure lab or facility. Every team should have had a 2-3 week quarantine prior to entering...

    Its actually a Petri Dish, but your point is still more than valid.

    MLS is Back Tournament - 2020

    Lion, this isn’t a both sides issue. My posts did not repeatedly call anybody a derogatory name like 413blues’ did. Nor did I attack a player on the team comparing their mental capacity to a bag of tools or ridicule their personal safety choices during a pandemic. If you want to moderate...

    Nice. You started today by calling me a prick and an asshole to now making it about my posting style while accusing me of being toxic. Don’t stop being you.

    MLS is Back Tournament - 2020

    Please, go ahead and reference my posts where I slam players and don’t back my comments up with examples. I’ll wait. Also, go ahead and reference my posts about the pandemic that are subjective or that aren’t backed up with citations - you’d be hard pressed to find another poster that so...

    MLS is Back Tournament - 2020

    Stay classy dude. It’s really too bad you take a post highly concerned about people’s health & well-being and claim writing it is being prick’ish and that of an asshole. Projection is a hell of a drug.

    MLS is Back Tournament - 2020

    Amazing to read the handful of folk on here with ostrich head in the sand comments about how safe the conditions will be, and how stupid everybody is who’s questioning it, considering the Disney staff attending to the NBA and MLS players are not being sequestered and come/go on a daily basis. To...

    COVID-19 - Leagues Suspended

    Nate silver is the equivalent of a first year grad student taking a course and thinking their grasp of numbers is sufficient to understand what they mean. He doesn’t. He knows stats but he doesn’t know the significance; he’s not a statistician who works with virologists, so claiming he should be...

    COVID-19 - Leagues Suspended

    And there you have it - the expert of experts saying the reopening is happening too soon. “It will set us back on our quest to return to normal.” This guy has seen all the numbers and knows what in place - nothing- and what isn’t - everything - there’s no tracing set up, there isn’t...

    About that loosening of the Stay at Home Orders........ uh, no, this is not the time to do it. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/unreleased-white-house-report-shows-coronavirus-rates-spiking-heartland-communities-n1204751

    I mean, I can play this game too, using actual experts in the field of virology rather than a baseball guy. All from long threads worth reading.

    COVID-19 - Leagues Suspended

    You’re using Nate Silver who believes there’s such a thing as Limited Herd Immunity at 20%. He’s been universally destroyed on his analysis because he has no clue what his raw data means and gets called out daily by actual scientists responding to his nonsense. And those numbers include NY which...

    Not sure where you’re getting your stats that things are improving. This map shows much of the country worsening, and those Red states supposedly in green are ones that aren’t testing widely. Even the states that are “steady” isn’t a net positive turn in the right direction. Right now, only the...

    NYCFC Mount Rushmore

    DC doesn’t win all those titles without Etch. He was amazing to watch and could take over games. Davies didn’t need to sit around MLS any longer to show his worth - not when Bayern wanted him and made him a regular starter. Who else from MLS has gone on to star on a top 5 team in the world? A...

    NYCFC Mount Rushmore

    Probably various reasons for each: Marco Etchevary was the most dominant playmaker in the league propelling DC to multiple titles. Donovan was the face of US soccer and part of multiple championship teams. Beckham brought legitimacy to the league and catapulted the DP rule. Without him...

    NY’s peak was after two months of unknown spread, whereas the rest of America didn’t have the same unchecked conditions of a destination city with mass transit and dense living conditions, but OK.

    On what basis was he supposed to shut everything down if tests weren’t able to be done? As far as anybody was being told, it wasn’t in the US until March. And once Westchester Patient Zero was found, he called in the national guard and started the zone in the area.
