  1. Or just turn the bloody ball over again....
  2. Holy crap do I hate playing here.
  3. That call is horrendous. These refs should be canned on Monday with the Purdue refs....
  4. I get it if you’re going to go for it on fourth down. Rather than punting from the opposition 35...............
  5. Nice defensive work there...
  6. Unfolding like a typical UW game at Ryan Field thus far....
  7. That's what I thought but they never showed a replay Radio and I were all over it, but tv didn’t seem to notice somehow.... Rough weekend for Big Ten refs thus far....
  8. I don’t think every year is accurate. I think it happened twice?
  9. Groshek was so facemasked there. Such garbage.
  10. I don't know, would we make the playoffs without the win over OSU in the BTC? I sort of want the badgers to get over that OSU hump rather than back in during a weird season. I still haven't got my head around Indiana being good anyway so expect they are going to get thumped today. But yeah rooting for them. If Indiana does somehow beat OSU, they’ll jump to top 5 for sure, giving UW a very quality win.
  11. Wow, that's clearly intended to be a play on the logo without any doubt... edit: Even MORE similar shirts too, if you follow the link to the actual store site.
  12. David Carr. He was absolutely pummeled in his time in Houston.
  13. I like the Toronto trade, but if they do make a trade with the Padres (which seems to make a lot of sense), I'd hope for a massively different group of names.
  14. This is a very good point. So few of these guys actually pull it off, and guys like Wilson and Mahomes ruin it for the rest when they do. QB is so much more important of a position now than it even was 20 years ago, and those guys get overdrafted in the first round too often, end up on crappy teams that have major problems, and are cast aside when they don't work out. The ones that really do succeed are ones that have a bit of time to sit, learn, and develop. Who knows what Rodgers is if he doesn't get that time from 05-07...
  15. I guess I saw the appeal and potential in Archer when his name came up so much a few years ago. But now, how much potential is left at age 32? At this point, he's likely shown what he is.
  16. Based on what I've seen on the news, some of the HCWs in Wisconsin have volunteered for some of the clinical trials for the vaccines. Perhaps she's electing to participate as well?
  17. Too funny/relevant not to share: https://local.theonion.com/mom-completely-understands-that-coming-to-thanksgiving-1845692901
  18. Just to again highlight a point that LouisEly made earlier, there are ways to have a normal-ish Thanksgiving that is mostly safe AND in-person: Test/quarantine before & after. Some people will undoubtedly be seeing their families in this way, and there's dramatically less risk in doing so. Without delving into the realm of 'virtue signaling' and the like, I think most people would agree that what people do for the holidays is a personal choice that can't/won't be policed in any way, but the problem is, that personal choice will undoubtedly, in many instances, lead to an effect on other people. It's already been discussed here, but when you exercise your personal choice to get together, then possibly get infected, then possibly spread that to, say, your co-workers the following Monday, you've no longer made a personal choice, you made a choice that infringed on others. That's how this all gets problematic. If you have the ability to keep your personal choice a choice that only effects you and your family that chooses to attend, I have zero issue with anyone choosing to have a gathering. Problem is, my assumption is that very few such gatherings will have such personal-only results.
  19. There is no reason to sugar coat it, the money isn't there and for that reason it won't happen even if he wanted to. Is it sugarcoating it, or is it just idle fan speculation? Sure, there's lots of reasons to think payroll will be reduced. But by how much? People here are talking about an $80-90 million payroll as if its gospel, when in actuality, we have no clue if it'll be $85 million or $99.
  20. Though I agree with your larger point, doesn't this have to be asterisked with a disclaimer that we don't know yet how long that immunity will last? Those that I know personally that have been infected and recovered have reported that their doctors could only provide guidance that they were likely safe from possible re-infection for 3 months. Obviously, it's very possible that it's longer than that, but that's the current guidance, apparently.
  21. Regarding the 'controversy', I did some reading regarding the circumstances- The controversy seemingly started when an American reporter quoted one of the researchers as saying that the study would be published 'when someone was brave enough to do so.' This apparently went a bit viral (no pun intended) among the anti-mask community. What presumably went less-viral was that the researcher then claimed that the reporter took his comment out of context and that the article was still in review.
  22. What is the actual "simple" science you're referring to here? I'll again note on of the key aspects of mask wearing that I think this comment fails to acknowledge: The PRIMARY benefit of mask wearing is to others, rather than the wearer. There is actual science showing benefits of masks reducing the chance of an infected person transmitting the virus to others. The benefit to a mask-wearer is somewhat less than this primary benefit, and there is a lot of yet-to-be determined data regarding the level of this effectiveness, which appears to be heavily dependent on quality/type of the mask, behavior of the wearer, etc. The changing information here is not indicative of a government conspiracy or "lie", it's indicative of us obtaining/determining additional data regarding a novel virus. Again, if a claim is like Chorizo's in that the some members of the public still doesn't understand this and feels that wearing a mask is primarily or solely to protect yourself and leads to irresponsible choices, I'll agree completely. Undoubtedly, some people are wearing masks and thinking they're protected and ignoring other guidelines, creating a diminishing-return type situation. But what we don't know, I suppose, is how many of those people would just engage in the same risky behaviors without the mask as well.
  23. Presumably the assumption here is that Hiura would move to DH? That would certainly improve the defense and add a nice bat.
  24. There is no evidence that COVID-19 can be transmitted through food: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/organizations/community-based.html Congregating around food, yes. Touching certain parts of your face while eating food, maybe. Through the consumption of food, no. Missed my point here a bit: As one of the continued tenets of general personal hygiene is hand washing whether during COVID times or cold and flu season, etc., if you’re not willing to wash your hands even now prior to eating, you’re not going to wash your hands ever.
  25. I too would like to see them retain Linsley if possible, as he's basically graded out as the best center in the league all season and it'd be great to keep him. Problem is, Bakh probably eliminated any flexibility to get a deal done with him prior to March, as they'll have to cut guys to open space for 2021 first. Good news is that the Packers have had a very good reputation for finding interior linemen that perform at a high level when another leaves.
