So what the hell is ESPN going to do.. show reruns of SportsCenter?

No - probably constant reruns of every Patriot (winning) SB.

Thankful to see the numbers continuing to go down in lethality. Hopefully that will continue as more get tested.

I was telling my wife last week that I expected the Democratic Party to use this to squeeze Bernie out. Yeah, I know, politics is a bad thing to mention. But I don't get all huffy about it and have known you all long enough to not prejudge you based on your beliefs so throwing that out there. Personally I am not surprised in the least by this and I expect they will basically curtail the remainder of the race to get behind Joe Biden.

Which, btw, I think is a sound strategy. I left the party a few years back but still prefer to see them more in the "middle" where I am as a voter. We'll see if things happen that way.

So with a year round population of around 8k here where I live, we have 1 case in town.

Now I might stress a bit

My town is 5k and they just had a tested case in Rolla (nearby) that was negative. Family is keeping tight tabs and updating the wife and I on this, it's pretty funny tbh.

Hope it doesn't come down this way though because there's a lot of elderly and that would probably be rough.

I'm going to avoid most of this because I have someone gunning for me.

I do believe it's safe to say that a vote by mail along with an ability to vote via the internet should reduce costs and enable more people of all parties to participate to a higher degree. The long lines and expecting the elderly or disabled to wait several hours to vote seems rather undemocratic when there are proven methods to improve upon this method. jmo.

Look, i've posted several articles from a number of sources, if you have a problem with the content, just say so. You have chosen to attack the news source rather than the article, so i'm not sure where the problem is. I understand we have little in common politically, and i've done the best I can to keep politics out of this thread, but believe me, if I wanted to go that route, i'd have plenty to say and you wouldn't be at all happy about it. I was waiting for you to initiate some displeasure somewhere down the line here, as usual you don't disappoint.

hahaha classic from you. And you got it this is the last I will ever say. You comment negatively on a post from somebody about politics then complain when others mention yours. You got it man I'm out of the discussion.

As unhinged as you come across at times, my only reply to you is ... good.
