No Soccer - Bad / No School - Catastrophic!

Newsom says schools can open only if off the watch list for 14 days. If on watch list must begin with remote learning. Hasn't distinguished between private schools and colleges either.

My best friend flunked out of ASU. He would have never been accepted to any UC. Hell, Colorado kicked him out because they thought I took his SAT’s for him. ASU didn’t care!

ASU didn’t care can be read two ways. They didn’t care if he cheated on the SAT, and they didn’t care if he flunked out.

Hope he found a school or an employer who did care.

It's all about competing in America, if you want to actually be a productive citizen. America is all about competition... Internal assessment of one self should rise above any blaming of a false narrative for systematic racism. A term that most don't believe even exists. If daddy can't stay home and tuck in his family read a book or just plain ole talk with little johnny/karen their kids are already falling behind the curve. That's nobodies fault but their own.

You are heartless. Everyday innocent kids are born into dysfunctional environments. Are you saying to hell with those kids because their parents are inept?

You do a lot of clueless posting. The choice is between a proud racist and Joe Biden. Biden has overwhelming support from people of color. You can call him old, dull, droll, whatever. But your false equivalency is boring. It amazes me, the cognitive dissonance of you right wingers, your dumb brains. Is Joe woke, or is he racist? It can’t be both.

The National Museum of African American History and Culture begs to differ. It is both woke and incredibly racist - ironically toward white people and people of color at the same time. Or did you not see the chart?

Let's be honest... you only care about black kids. What we're saying is black children, depending on who you listen to, are being born into single parent households more than 90% of the time. THAT is the problem, not the system. If black men can't stick around to be fathers, maybe they could spring $ .50 for a condom now and then? And now the morons at BLM want to push back on traditional family households despite every statistic showing that produces more crime and more deaths.

If you support black kids, you'll support cops, two parent households and accountability.

He went to the Patriots in the supplemental draft. But, he’s always been an underachiever and got himself in trouble with the NFL after several warnings. He had too much pride to take the punishment of 1 year in NFL Europe and that ended his career.

It’s weird because his older brother received his degree from Cal and got a few super bowl rings with the Pats. But he was also in gifted classes his entire life. My friend was a very good athlete at a very young age. Everyone kissed his ass and never held him accountable and it ruined him.

Agree. The first part of fixing a problem is admitting there is a problem rather than blame the past.

I just don’t know if anyone will actually admit to the problem(s). It’s just much easier to make excuses and point the finger at someone else.
 
The Governor was explaining social distancing with his kids and his example was about his caregiver. How many besides Messy and Woobie have a caregiver? I love being my son and dd caregiver and I would never ever give that away to a caregiver or even pay for a caregiver. Hey, to each his own :) I have a hard time with his smile and talking about this and that and I would 100% have debated him if we were teammates in high school. Seems like a good guy to me. I know this must be really hard on his caregiver. I hope she gets a raise :)

If I'm understanding this correctly, he also said about schools making their own decisions, and not even on a district level?
 
Given where we are on the curve and given the time table of 14 days earliest that schools will open up in SoCal is October. Even if they reopen pods can be quarantined and if 5% outbreak they'll shut down the school again. Even with schools reopen, they will be constantly disrupted. NorCal escaped the worst but the OC definitely is included.

Well maybe not as bad as we thought but opens up a whole new can of worms. Makes it difficult for Districts that have chosen at least some form physical attendance to create a clear plan. Then what happens if your County comes off the watchlist, but later is back on? Is school back to online? Let's just jerk the kids around! Districts that had the best intentions of resuming in-person learning may just say f' it and just give online as the only option. Maybe that's Newsom's intent, make it so difficult so that Districts "choose" distance learning without him technically mandating it. Let's him off the hook so to speak.

I been called worse, but Mac, America is an incredible difficult place to live and compete in work. Focus on family, get a HS degree at a minimum, don't have a kid early in years, and work hard. My grandfather came over fresh off the boat, had no pennies, didn't speak the language, had a knapsack of a couple shirts and pants, but laid a foundation for his next generation with his hard work, persistence and determination. Skills that can't be given to anyone but are only earned.

10,000 Copa's tracing your every move is my worse nightmare. Their all trained foot soldiers. I saw mask promotion right before the presser. I told you all we would have logos maid.

Yeah, but that's only once the county is off the watch list and there are certain mandatory shutdowns and quarantines. Schools still answerable to county health dept and local school boards though.

Wow he just royally fed SoCal. 14 days off that watch list is a very high standard. Impossible when you are on the upper end of the curve slope and then you have to clear out a lot of hospitalizations which could last up to 30 days, considering death is a lagging indicator.

This is the part that seems rather self evident. You stop activity and cases mellow. Open up they rise. At that point the politicians want to shut down again. And then the cycle repeats itself again.

At some point we have to realize that will be the cycle. Without any vaccine on the horizon, how long will we live like this?

Have you looked at the rest of the world? The United States is blowing the world away for new COVID cases. It's not even close. And it didn't have to be that way. Saying "it's inevitable" is just factually incorrect.

I have a number of friends and family in Italy. Italy has been open for almost two months and yesterday it had 230 new cases and 11 deaths. In a country of 60 million people. They just locked down hard and long enough -- about 8-10 weeks of a hard lockdown -- to get the new cases very low, like under 2% positive. With numbers that low, they can keep on top of the flare ups. Plus Italy (along with Spain) has something like 80% of people wearing masks now. Have you seen pictures of Italy now? They have absolutely very close to normal life and almost no COVID.

The US didn't lock down hard enough or long enough (except maybe NY/NJ/CT). California was actually pretty close...if we had kept a stricter lockdown through May it might have been enough to get our cases low enough so we could keep on top of them. It kills me how close we were.

People need to be honest about why we are where we are. We lacked the will at every level to really lockdown for the period of time that it would take to make a difference. Instead we got the worst of all worlds. We sort of locked down for 6-8 weeks. Canceled school, lots of people out of work, small businesses shut down. And then we re-opened too fast and too early, people decided to go see their friends, go to bars and restaurants, socialize like normal times, so we got an even worse resurgence. Now all the work we did staying home in the spring, sacrifices that were made, is completely flushed down the toilet.

I care about all kids. I’m proud of all of my heritage both white and black. However if you look at the totality of the circumstances white men have historically been the most violent and caused the most destruction. White men colonized the world.
Your theory doesn’t hold true when you look at the world.
Also funny thing is my white family is waaay more sensitive to inequities and aggressions than I am.

Too bad Gavin couldn't practice social distancing by not screwing his best friend's wife.
