Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

Thanks guys, it's not very expensive, and I don't get much for it, but the cost of self publishing paperback was not worth it to me.  I'm working on Book 2, about half way done, and am looking into how to publish otherwise.

Folks still like book stores and libraries.  And I think the fact that a thing is published is an imprimatur of something, it was vetted, probably is written reasonably well etc.

from the press conference earlier today...................

-- Frost said he's confident that Nebraska can keep its Covid-positivity numbers under the Big Ten's aggressive thresholds this season. Frost said that enough players have either tested positive for the virus or tested positive for antibodies that he believes Nebraska should be in the clear. He also said that Nebraska currently does not have any players opting out for the season, or have players who will miss time because of a positive test.

Mayors from Big Ten college communities sent a letter to conference officials asking for more “practical measures” to slow the spread of COVID-19 during game days.

According to the letter, football games commonly “generate a lot of activity, social gatherings, and the consumption of alcohol,” which contribute to the spread of COVID-19.

To combat this, the mayors are asking for the following measures to be taken by the Big Ten:


***Define the metrics used for the overall community population positivity rates and test positivity.

***Work with local leaders and health departments in deciding whether or not a game should be played.

***Release game times and schedules as early as possible and make an effort to avoid having evening or late afternoon games.

Eleven mayors from Big Ten college towns in Maryland, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Iowa, Ohio, and Wisconsin signed the letter. The mayor of Lansing also signed it.

Not listed in the letter are the mayors of Urbana-Champaign, IL (University of Illinois), Newark, NJ (Rutgers) and Lincoln.

did they sneak this past Gretchen Whitmer???

Yes.  A shitshow.

I guess it depends which program you're following.
