masks don’t work. Otherwise, the game would be played.

Especially if you don't wear them.
Not wearing masks does not work. That's why the numbers are exploding. Just like the science said they would if we didn't do what it took to crush it.
I have worked in an operating room. Go peddle "masks don't work" to the ignorant.

You are dead wrong as usual. Please don’t bring that crap into an unrelated thread.

RE: North Texas Game Postponed......
Sorry to throw gas on the fire, but I'm just not having that nonsense any more. A quarter of a million Americans are dead because people won't take the simplest public health measures to protect themselves and others around them. Germ theory isn't controversial, it's a fact.
My brother is a respiratory therapist. He works in a Covid ward in San Antonio. He gets out of bed and goes to work every day, trying to save the lives of Covid victims. This is what he wears to work:
https://www.amazon.com/North-Medium-Blac...163&sr=8-2
But "masks don't work".
I'm tired of nonsense like this, of people who choose to remain ignorant. I'm not going to be silent in the face of it.

I agree. He’s ignorant and I’m tired of him peddling his conspiracy theory crap on here.

Yes they do. He's said a lot worse stuff, and they've let him get away with it.

The moderators allow someone to say something you disagree with?? Those basterds... How about maybe paying no attention to it and moving on with your life, as opposed to continuing to pour gasoline on the fire. You know, if you see something you don't like, don't bring it further into the spotlight by acknowledging it. It is a pretty simple concept. And you can't honestly believe you're going to change someone's opinion by sharing yours on a message board. If I had my way, I'd ban everyone on here- from both sides- who get into these arguments on this board. A lot of us are tired of seeing it.

It's not just that we disagree with him, it's that his statement is completely wrong. It's also ignorant and dangerous. The mods have let him get away with the anti-mask/anti-COVID stuff, as well as letting him get away with saying blatantly racist things on the board previously.

RE: North Texas Game Postponed......
It’s the flu and pneumonia. Nobody died from purely covid over the summer. That’s why they dug into last flu season to find back logged deaths just so they could keep some consistency with the daily death count. Why are all the teams cancelling, because we just began fall and what, the flu season. Covid was over on Saturday when y’all danced in the street for a racist VP by the hundreds of thousands then got online to virtue signal because Norte dame stormed the field. Covid makes it way back into the headlines as voter fraud makes its way to front page news but is buried by all of mainstream media and social media platforms. Again keep pretending Covid is real only when it’s convenient for you politically.
You know, there’s nobody being forced to take the more ridiculous protocols more than athletes. Whole team gets sidelined due to fake positives or what y’all like to call “contact tracing” because it gives your dem leaders a sense of control. Whole team is masked up 24/7 outside their homes, but “masks work”. Yeah, at killing immune systems. Ask all of the folks with strep throat, dry coughs, and tonsillitis.
Boy, this communism is going to be fun. When 10-20 million illegal immigrants get citizenship, don’t suddenly find your morals and values and say this sucks. This is what you wanted.

RE: North Texas Game Postponed......
Without having a countering argument, it’s easier to just label everything you disagree with as racist. It’s the way to work around the 1st amendment to silence those in disagreement. There’s only one side calling for segregation and it’s those who voted for the segregationist.

RE: North Texas Game Postponed......
I think the larger concern is the disinformation. Everyone knows that our country's #1 source of information about the pandemic is Blazertalk. All of these people flocking to this site to learn how to protect themselves from the virus are going to get bad information, and we will have deaths in the tens of millions. And those deaths will be on YOUR hands BlazinBham. It is our moral obligation, as posters on a college sports message board (and thus the most trusted arbiters of medical science), to ensure that only the best information comes from this site. Otherwise, we will lose the faith of the masses, and they will no longer turn to us for their concerns about their health.

I mean, that's a weird way to say "it's frustrating and embarrassing for a fanbase supporting a team from a world-class medical institution to deny science and evidence"...but okay sure, I can get behind that too :-)

UTEP game is cancelled. Again, when I rant, it’s reactionary. If I get banned, Time for some others to go as well.
I wear my mask. Unless I’m outside and there’s nobody within the imaginary 6 feet covid resistant bubble. I’ve kept my vulnerable stuck at home all year while those virtue signaling have burned, looted, murdered and lynched. Forgive me if some of us want our freedom back from the hypocrisy.
Again. The CDC, which everyone likes to cherry pick when they are right and wrong has refuted just about everything we can think of regarding the virus.
