  1. No. I just don't hang in the same hoidy-toidy circles as you.
  2. So actually, age isn't a good predictor. As plenty of 35 year olds have ot done any of that...
  3. My wife was wondering if she had it, since she had everything else in December/January. Diagnoses included pneumonia, strep throat, a UTI, and then just for the fun of it all - shingles! At one point she had an infection that resulted in her losing her sense of smell and taste, which is now known to be a symptom of COVID in some people. But then I think a lot of viral infections can cause that. I actually hope she had it,because then we would have all potentially built up a temporary immunity. But I doubt it...
  4. I had not seen that. But I can stand down...
  5. Not so much Sale as the Sox and MLB (aka "the employers"), which I have said. ElAttrache clearly sides with you on it not being elective (although he also sought out a location that had not banned elective surgeries). Andrews, on the other hand, does not side with you on that matter...
  6. Age doesn't always equate to "life experiences." Unfair generalization...
  7. That may not be entirely true. https://sports.yahoo.com/chris-sale-able-tommy-john-123654344.html
  8. Yes, because you're in Virginia. Some of us are in MA and IL. November can be very different up here...
  9. In a very specific climate...
  10. The Surgeon General didn’t ban spending money to go to baseball games during non-pandemic years...
  11. Thorpe is an excellent multi-sport athlete, and if the OP didn’t set a 50 year timeframe, he hopefully would have been brought up by now. A few other older multi-sport names include former Celtic/Red Sox Gene Conley and The Rifleman Chuck Connors. Along with Thorpe, another comp is the Golden Greek, Harry Agganis...
  12. Depends how long they opt for Spring Training 2...
  13. Possible. I don’t expect the season to open until June at the earliest...
  14. We need more threads like this
  15. The last entry on his Rotoworld page said he was swinging the bat and expected to BA back before the end of April...
  16. The Jacoby Ellsbury case taught us teams are certainly heavily invested in a player following team recommendations. The Jets had an OL who refused surgery on his meniscus last year and was fined by the team for it...
  17. Off the bat, that ball from Bregman looked like trouble. No matter how many times I watch it, I still find it hard to believe Beni was able to make that catch. Kimbrel struggled no doubt. The garbage can tolled for thee...
  18. That same logic applies to hoarding toilet paper....
  19. Maybe N95 masks. We've reached the point where TV shows about doctors are donating their prop masks to hospitals. So if a few people gowned and masked up for these surgeries, the same number of ER nurses and doctors treating the highly infections COVID-19 were unable to....
  20. Just to inject some baseball on to the board today. Assuming the 2020 season does resume at some point, what do you suppose happens with Rule 5 picks? The expanded rosters make them easier to hold on to. And will teams just have to keep them for the 60-100 games in 2020 and that’s it? Or will their Rule 5 status roll over into 2021 until they have been rostered for a full 162 games (which I believe would be similar to how previous Rule 5 picks with DL/IL time were handled)?
  21. Like any patient, they’re just trying to get treated. Really look at the Thunder administering 58 COVID tests. Obviously anyone testing positive benefited. But the media coverage of the team for testing so many when tests were so rare was thoroughly negative...
  22. I think the “bad look” argument was more along the employers, much like when the Thunder (the NBA team, not the TS poster) had received nearly as many COVID tests as the rest of the country. No one mentioned Gobert there...
  23. Well, the original argument was whether or not they were elective surgeries. By every definition I have found, they were. So what Sale and Syndergaard did was look for regions of the country still allowing elective surgery...
