Drinking can compromise the immune system, and I really don't drink much anymore but I do have 6 whiskeys, 4 vodkas, and a some liqueurs if it comes to that.

The only sport that actually matters is still going on. UFC. Had an event tonight and have 4 more events in the next month or so capped off by the most anticipated fight in UFC history: Khabib vs Tony which has already been cancelled 4 times previously. Coronavirus is doing its damndest to try to cancel it again.

i literally withdrew some dfs monies and sent it to a guy who specializes in esports - so weird not having that daily itch scratched

sports used to consume a massive part of my life via modeling for it and even blogging about it a bit and yet now it's just empty

spending a lot of this time that would be spent crunching numbers learning how to crunch them more efficiently - hope to drastically improve my python and r skills during this sports hiatus

I've started 40 days. I didn't anticipate being pseudo-quarantined for Lent. It's like it's becoming actually hard?

So tell me... Should we take further advantage of the crisis and expand the reeducation camps of the Uyghurs for, umm, other political opponents? Maybe a couple more days until WWII style internment camps?

that article doesn't advocate for shooting either, the health officer fired in the air to get him to comply, at which point the deranged idiot charged him, only then was he shot

if this gets anywhere near as bad as 1918 people are going to learn quite well what a democratic government is capable of when they finally accept this is a life threatening emergency

dc, i don't take a position in either post, one is a slightly more nuanced description of it

very disappointed you're trying to stir up phantom arguments

The mask and glasses are counterproductive

Odds of cancellation has to be no worse than even money?

Probably, but there are some black guys on the woodworkers FB page I’m a member of. But it definitely seems the majority are white guy Trump supporters. I’m sure you’re shocked by that revelation.

Only 2 live sporting events I've found today are Bull Riding and Bowling. Both being aired without fans. Not bad. Would watch over basketball anyway.

The Fed's primary role here will be keeping credit markets functioning and being the lender of last resort.

The interest rate cuts will reduce the interest on the government debt issued to pay for any upcoming stimulus packages.

Pretty sure Powell and company were not expecting a stock market pop on this cut. Everything done now is about keeping things moving 3 months from now (and providing liquidity to get things moving for some industries).

Lap, as you may know I don’t follow this thread often, but I saw that you were in a full blown fight. I got your back if BigSkip comes at you tag team wrestling style.

And by that I mean I will stand behind you so as not to be seen.
