BET To Go On As Planned

[muguru]

Keep watching Fox. It will make you feel better if you get sick knowing it's all a hoax.

People should actually do more of this...if they did, people might be more knowledgeable about things then believing everything they hear see on CNN/MSNBC.

Tell me how you interpreted what Trump is/just said?  This is fascinating.

[GooooMarquette]

At this point most fans are already in NY. There is little to no benefit in banning fans. They missed their opportunity to make a proactive decision.

Other posts seem to indicate that NYC is a ghost town, and many fans of teams starting tomorrow (including many MU fans) may be planning to travel tomorrow. Seems like there is still a small window to announce, and mitigate travel woes.

Actually I watch BBC. Keep watching Fox. It will serve you well.

Lol. How about Cheddar News.

So apparently we are restricting all travel from Europe to the United States.

I'd like to see how you manage to maintain your theory that this entire thing is an overreaction by the press now.

Trump bans travel from Europe...what a whimp...hey Guru.

The press has NOT helped the pure absolute panic that has set in for people like you on this thing. I picture you cowered in a corner, shaking uncontrollably and chanting "make it stop, please make it stop". Did we get thru SAARS?? The swine flu?? The answer is unequivocally yes. And what were the common themes in all of these?? Media hysteria prompting more fears than necessary. I have ZERO issues with being cautious, that should be a given regardless if there's a pandemic or not.

What I find absolutely disgraceful is the absolute panic and fear people are having right now. Like people are literally terrified...your posts indicate you are(you'll deny it) as do other posts on this board. I mean c'mon people, are you this terrified of getting cancer, or walking across a street and getting hit by a car, or getting herpes and passing that on to someone?? Are we going to live the rest of our lives in fear??

To hear a lot of you talk about this, I swear you all TRULY believe this is going to wipe out the planet..we will all die from this, and it's not IF just when. That's because people hear things in the media, and they buy into it. That's what bothers me.

[muguru]

Uh oh...quick everyone PANIC and freak out more than you already are!

Utah Jazz All-Star Rudy Gobert has tested positive for coronavirus, sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.

Sources say Gobert is feeling good, strong and stable — and was feeling strong enough to play tonight.

Who'd have thunk it, the way this board is terrified of this thing.

Three paragraphs and you ignored my point entirely. Congrats.

Pretty much everyone understands how serious this is except for you. You're pretty much alone on your little island of the ignorant. Good job.

[The Sultan]

I wonder if they'll just end the BET after tonight.

Wouldn't shock me. Nba done. Ncca maybe as well sad

[muguru]

No, I get your fucking point...you have been pounding it home...you worry about giving it to someone else..That being said, i ask respectfully that you answer the following questions:

1. If you don't know that you have it, and are worried about possibly passing it on, why are you leaving your house at all, to do anything. If you're THAT worried and fearful about giving it to someone else, don't be around ANYONE, right??

2. How can you be worried about passing it on, if you don't even know you have it?? Now if you're 100% sure you have it, that is a TOTALLY different thing, and why I talk about the fear mongering that is going on right now. People just need to rela...really, they do.

3. If you're around say 50,000 people and later on it's found out more people got it, you would have ZERO way of knowing if you were the one that they got it from. Odds are, someone else was there that had it to, maybe it came from them?? Don't shake people's hands etc, and it's almost impossible to pass it on. Again, the fear mongering, people are acting like if they breathe on someone they could possibly pass this on. It's NOT airborne.

4. If you passed on a mutation of some sort to one of your kids(unknowingly, until much later on) sure you wouldn't like it, none of us would, but at that point, what can you do about it?? The only way to prevent it is to NOT have kids. In this case, the ONLY way to make sure this doesn't spread more, is to shut the world down...literally, don't let people go anywhere. Does that seem reasonable to you?? Or do we still have to live our lives??

[The Sultan]

I might have it. I don't think I do so I just need to live my life and minimizing risks. Sticking close to home. Not going to events with big crowds. It's not permanent. Hopefully for the next month or so.

That's the thing. The incubation period starts before symptoms show up. So you and I could both have it and have passed it along already.

[Jockey]

No, I get your unnatural carnal knowledgeing point...you have been pounding it home...you worry about giving it to someone else..That being said, i ask respectfully that you answer the following questions:

Just stop your madness.

Sure, but if we have...it's not like we did it intentionally right?? There's absolutely ZERO would could do about it. It sucks sure, but you know what?? The VAST majority of people that get it end up being just fine anyway.

It doesn't matter how he feels.  He may infect others, whose bodies may not react as well as his has.

They should, its time.  These are unpaid college kids.

See...this is where I get pissed.  This is a big deal...lots of people in the US are going to die...the market is crashing...everything is coming to a hault.  You were so fucking wrong, so now you say everyone is acting like everyone is going to die.  EVERYONE with a brain knows only the elderly and those with weak ammune systems are likely to be effected.  At this point you are no longer funny...you become dangerous.  Quit moving goal posts...there is a reason not a single fucking person is backing you.  Not Trump, not Fox News.  So tell me how many you expect to die from this, and if this is a big deal.  Better yet...tell my dad who is in a battle for his life with cancer or my baby girls who spent months in the NICU.  Dumbass.

Actually is there a news outlet that all sides can agree is objective?  Serious question because I would watch it.  I go back and forth between CNN and Fox and laugh at how bad both are.  Completely different information. Its actually disturbing and I shouldn't laugh. 

I would love to know a good channel to watch.  If there is not one, don't you think a new network would make a killing if it was known for objectivity?

[The Sultan]

<sigh>

The point is that limiting social interaction limits the spread.
