Covid-19 Effect on College Basketball & Other Sports

[ElmCityRhody]

Exactly

[ramster]

Ah, yes..."the checks"... Those checks have had (and are still having) as negative of an effect on our economy as anything in recent memory.

And now they are talking about sending more checks out

And then wonder why rejoice in the fact that we can't get anyone to go to work. Brilliant.

And then wonder why rejoice in the fact that we can't get the ships unloaded in Long Beach because people have ordered even more stuff with their Covid checks. Hire more supply chain consultants to figure it out - Mayor Pete is on it.

Hard to tell if people are actually in on it or not. That would imply coordination. What we have seems as much like random, disconnected bad decisions...

Clown show

[adam914]

I hate to break up the disinformation party, but that 75% number is among vaccinated people. The CDC Director was speaking about the effectiveness of the vaccines and stating that few vaccinated people are dying unless they have multiple comorbidities.

This is the study they were referring to. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/ ... mm7101a4_w

Ok, back to your regularly scheduled whining, don't let the truth get in your way!

[ramster]

So it’s actually 78% not 75%

She was not clear on the vaccination part when I watched her interview and clearly reading reviews of her talking points it wasn’t just the group of us on KB that were confused.

So why are vaccinated people required to wear masks again? And all kids in school 8 hours per day?

And we are talking of more trillions of dollars I guess because of the unvaccinated?

Seems like a lot of fearmongering has been going on with the govt and media towards the vaccinated.

I must be missing something.

Among 1,228,664 persons who completed primary vaccination during December 2020–October 2021, severe COVID-19–associated outcomes (0.015%) or death (0.0033%) were rare. Risk factors for severe outcomes included age ≥65 years, immunosuppressed, and six other underlying conditions. All persons with severe outcomes had at least one risk factor; 78% of persons who died had at least four.

Sure. Do you even read the news? Or have trouble with reading comprehension? Or both?

It’s been in the news last week that masks are ineffective with Omicron which is now 95% of cases in US. Only the N95 is recommended for Omicron.

In addition latest data from Dr Walensky says 78% of deaths are from people with 4 or more comorbidities.

As for masks at URI and no masks at Dunkin Donuts center that represents the inconsistency of the government in rules. Now with RI being #1 in new Covid cases the Governor and Medical Experts have implemented mask wearing at the dunk. Better late than never but if not the N95 seems too little too late.

Good news is your Dunkin Donuts center is masked now, a little late after your PC- URI Superspreader Unmasked event that helped catapult RI to #1 in new cases among all 50 states.

[NYGFan_Section208]

You don't have to go from Providence to Kingston for that inconsistency...I saw it in 4 stores in the same neighborhood yesterday. Apparently, no medical experts in this area.

Just curious, are the med experts that now require masks at the dunk the same ones saying they're not effective? Or, are those different experts?

You are absolute hilarious.

Newsflash, omicron is nothing more than a very bad cold, much more milder than Delta. That’s in the news, so have you seen that? Or just ignoring that?

Continuing to say I struggle with reading comprehension is truly a gem.

Whatever you think my reading comprehion is, your basketball knowledge is 10X below that.

You believe if there’s any contact in the game of basketball, a foul needs to be called, sounding like a 7 year old in a rec league.

[ramster]

I’m not seeing too many masks at this Georgia Alabama post game celebration

Maybe the same experts from the Dunk running the Indianapolis championship game.

I’m not much of an expert on the experts

Thank you

Newsflash, omicron is nothing more than a very bad cold, much more milder than Delta. That’s in the news, so have you seen that? Or just ignoring that?
Yes. Seen it. In fact if you look back in this thread I reported that back in this thread based on South Africa early reports. Look back and you’ll see that I was told it’s too early to base on South Africa plus they are not the same vax rate as US.
So we knew (or world news knew) cases were not as severe early on.
Not sure why US said we were surprised by this Variant and that’s why we didn’t have enough tests and were not ready for it.

Continuing to say I struggle with reading comprehension is truly a gem.
If you read back on this thread you can see my South Africa comments. Maybe you read read them and didn’t comprehend them?

Whatever you think my reading comprehion is, your basketball knowledge is 10X below that.
That’s a lot.

You believe if there’s any contact in the game of basketball, a foul needs to be called, sounding like a 7 year old in a rec league.
Again, reading comprehension. What I said was that if a player is shooting and there is physical contact with the shooter then that is a foul. Even if I hit the players off hand and he is releasing the ball with his right hand then that is a foul.
Nowhere did I say any physical contact in a basketball game is a foul.
But then my basketball knowledge is 10x below your reading comprehension so there’s that.

[ElmCityRhody]

so wait. . the WINTER OF DEATH turned out to be incorrect and these are the people we should be trusting ?

i am confused

actually i am not confused..

that FRAUDCI is a fraud

[ramster]

No
The winter of death has not turned out to be incorrect.
Winter goes til March 21. Lots of winter left
We have tests coming soon. You can order them free from the government ship right to your house.
Omicron caught us by surprise. Nobody saw it coming.
It’s simple folks.
Mask up.
No confusion.

[Rhody15]

Ramster,

I literally quoted what you said, so after you realized how wrong you were, you must've gone back and edited it.

It still blows my mind and you continue to think if there is contact on a shooter, it needs to automatically be a foul.

That is, and will continue to be, 100% wrong.

A defender has the right to verticality, meaning if he jumps directly straight up (like Lee did) then there is no foul, no matter if there is contact.

This is from an article from 2016/2017 describing verticaility.

"Now, so long as the defender maintains verticality (meaning he jumps straight up and holds his arms straight up in an attempt to block a shot), that defender will not be called for a blocking foul even if he is inside the restricted area. This interpretation effectively prevents an offensive player from picking up a cheap foul by leaning into a shot blocker who leapt from inside the restricted arc."

Receipts don’t lie.

You edited it twice.

Anything else?

[ramster]

Receipts don’t lie.

You edited it twice.

Anything else?

That doesn’t mean I changed what was meant. Maybe I misspelled a word I don’t know.

But my opinion has not changed

Plus my discussion was with PMMM , not with you.

So simply my view:

Lee was not going straight up but for sake of argument let’s say Lee was going straight up
Lee slipped off the man he was guarding in the corner and slid into the red circle. Lee was not covering Leggett.
Leggett beat his man to the hoop starting his drive from the 3P line
Lee moved into the circle
Lee jumped
Lee did not give Leggett room to land and Leggett was airborne
Contact was made between Leggett and Lee
The contact contributed to Leggett missing the shot

No foul was called.

Cox went berserk and Tech could have been called on him
Announcers said Tech was on Makhi Mitchell who was on the bench. Announcers criticized and questioned Makhi’s basketball IQ
Media said the Tech was on Makhi
KB posters criticize Makhi’s Technical foul and talked bad about him and said Cox needs to do something as no player should get a bench Tech and blow the game
Local media on Twitter criticized Makhi

Then turns out Tech was on Makhel
Box score revealed that

Many people were wrong on the Tech and their commentary about Makhi. It happens.

Going to the Davidson board and reading all comments in 10 pages they know these Refs. Many felt the game was poorly officiated. Some just had an off game.

I’d say it was a foul on Lee. He got in the red circle late, jumped and body contact occurred with Leggett who missed the shot. To me that’s a foul. Has to be in Leggett or Lee and I thought Lee.

But the Ref ended the game calling a Technical Foul. Game over. Loyer to the line for 4 shots.

Hate to see a game end with the Refs deciding the winner on the road.

If Makhel didn’t get the Tech Cox would have as announcers were saying Cox was livid. I don’t blame him.

On to winning the A10 Auto Bid.

[rambone 78]

Do we have enough talent to win the auto bid ramster?

I would say maybe.

Do we have the right coach to win the auto bid?

Not a chance.

Yep. Straight up in the picture and Lee is about 10 inches off the ground.

In the picture blown up it looks like quite a bit of contact between Leggett and Lee and plus #13 Jones looks like he is hacking Leggett's arm.

I’m guessing that infecting your coaches or just as bad, your major donors might, might be an issue.

How does Alabama vs Georgia take place with no issues and a sold out indoor arena?
NFl and NBA are not seeing the ineligility and cancellation that college basketball is seeing

Funny you mentioned it. My wife, who works in the hospital, told me that a young healthy (unvaccinated) person just had to be intubated yesterday. The place is basically a hot mess with COVID right now--kids and adults. She describes it like a war zone. I'm very grateful that people like us on the outside are able to be sheltered from the day-to-day stress on the current healthcare system and live with only minor inconveniences of things like delaying a sports game, for example.

So one person. And considering the massive amount of data out there pointing to co-morbitities as a serious determining factor in Covid being a serious illness…I guess we would have to see their medical history.

Makes sense to sequester the 99.9% of other healthy individuals away from each other to protect the .01%, also driving down individual’s immune systems in the process.

And everyone of the players is vaccinated…I thought these things worked? Why did we all get them again?

It might be a “minor inconvenience” to you…but to kids at this level, and especially lower levels - sports are their lives, ticket to college, potentially the only thing keeping them off the streets or doing a litany of bad things they could be filling their time with besides sports.

This is insanity.

Interesting, the head of Yale New Haven hospitals said in last weeks Courant;

"Very tired ICU nurse said to me, ‘I just wish the public could see what's going on here.' The ICU is full, all but two of the patients were COVID patients, all but one of them were unvaccinated," Dr. Balcezak said

they are not being incubated

they are coming in and being sent home because they have the sniffles from omicron

Sorry, people don’t end up in intensive care for “sniffles”. Intensive care is for folks who are on vents and need 24 hour intensive care. Hence the name.
