2020 Michigan Offseason Thread

[betarhoalphadelta]

If we do get some spring football it's going to be very interesting to see who plays or not.  The draft is scheduled for April 29th - completely possible college football is still going on.  While the stars would most likely sit out, there is that "trying to be a star" group that would have to way the benefits of playing.  And if they play, then get drafted midseason, do they stop playing?

Currently. The NFL is holding a hard line right now not talking about changing their draft date, but I could easily see them moving it and the combine back if all hell breaks loose with this thing.

Thankfully, MSU has nobody like that

HA!

The NFL likes having a free minor league system, but by that point, I don't think they have any interest in moving their schedule just to allow potential draft picks to injure themselves.

Michigan star CB Ambry Thomas follows Mayfield’s lead, announces he is skipping the 2020 season if there is one in order to prep for 2021 NFL draft.

They aren’t moving the draft back for shit, and this thing isn’t that bad. It’s overblown media bullshit hype.

The number of American COVID deaths is 58 times the number of deaths in the 9/11 attacks.

The number of infections and pneumonia that get tagged for it seems more than abit creepy.Either Hospitals or big pharma jockeying for Gov't coin.People die of stage 4 cancer,guess what?

Oh Jesus Christ give me a break with this dramatic bullshit will you. 

If we’re going to compare a minor flu like disease that only kills old, sick, and fat people to random acts of terrorism- then how many deaths in comparison to the two nuclear bombs the US dropped on Japan? Hint- like 100,000+ less!

[CWSooner]

We're 200,000 deaths over where our death toll should be.  The notion that COVID deaths have been overcounted doesn't hold water.

The number of Japanese we killed during WWII at Hiroshima, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Hiroshima, Nagasaki and Tokyo (in firebombings), or in the entire war has nothing to do with the Coronavirus pandemic.

neither does the number of deaths in the 9/11 attacks

No shit. Lmao. You’d think he’d have gotten that point.

Last I checked official US count was 177k. So negative 23,000 people should have died? Wtf are you even saying. 

COVID deaths have been overcounted, this thing has been politicized, it’s nowhere near as lethal as idiots in media or hype would have you believe- and I literally personally know 15 people who have had it and not one of them has died and only a couple of them were actually very sick.

Yes, it does, because that was something that hit us, not us hitting the Japanese.
It's the comparison that's interesting.
19 years ago, we went to war, one we are still fighting, over 2,996 deaths.  We have lost about 7,000 American lives in the process.
Now, 177,000 dead Americans?  Meh.  Only cowards and cucks care about that.
Real men want college football!  It's unfair if we can't have what we want!
