LOL @ Bruce Pearl

Breaking news: penn state football instituting a postseason ban

 

[Jim]

Breaking news: penn state football instituting a postseason ban

Massive news, actually.

 

[Greg Obrecht]

Two year ban because Covid

 

[CurdMan]

Two year ban because Covid

A classic announcing it just a few days before the start of the season too. I’d feel worse for the players, but it’s kind of what you have to expect when you commit to Bruce Pearl

 

[Stomper15]

 

[douglasbader]

Holy shit if teams are going to be this fucking dumb there really won't be a season.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

That’s fine. We can play Illinois in moline for the ncaa title.

 

[BBK]

That’s fine. We can play Illinois in moline for the ncaa title.

Wharton Fieldhouse or the Panther Den?

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Wharton Fieldhouse or the Panther Den?

I don’t remember the name, whichever one was all nude.

 

[rodg12]

LOL @ Bruce Pearl

Probably why it looked like he pulled up at a gas station off a deserted highway to use a flip phone for his video interview during the NBA draft.

 

[Jim]

Wharton Fieldhouse or the Panther Den?

Didn’t the old CBA team play at Wharton? I may have watched Acie in action there.

 

[BBK]

Didn’t the old CBA team play at Wharton? I may have watched Acie in action there.

They did!

 

[Jim]

They did!

The Quad City Thunder!

 

[douglasbader]

Lol at these fucking teams cancelling games for insanely stupid reasons.

Arizona State refusing to play Baylor because a coach had a positive test. Duke's first game cancelled because a student manager on the other team had a positive test. Refs have to isolate for 14 days if any player in a game they worked tests positive.

They had 9 months to figure this out and this is what they came up with?

 

[L. Wade Childress]

People being stupid was totally unpredictable, and the NCAA is definitely is a strong public image position right now where they can force teams to not be stupid.

 

[WCFHawkeye]

It has been reported on here all the Iowa players but one has had Covid. Have the coaches had it (I'm sure someone knows, LOL, fuck you!).

 

[Jim]

On the other hand, heard from a pediatric cardiologist this morning that some of the football players who tested positive in June are starting to test positive again.

Ugh. Not good. I still tested positive for antibodies 2 weeks ago from May.

They better notify the CDC that they have an extraordinary confirmation of re-infection that is nearly unprecedented around the world.

I’m sure he was just making shit up. I’ll call him a liar and a scumbag and be done with it.

 

[douglasbader]

That is my guess, he's full of shit playing telephone.

 

[Jim]

That is my guess, he's full of shit playing telephone.

Ha. He leads the corona medical team at Iowa. The CDC says reinfection is rare. That’s because most people are getting tested a second time with no symptoms. Every Iowa football player gets tested daily, regardless of symptoms.

 

[douglasbader]

What? No.

 

[douglasbader]

We shall see if this doctor is full of shit or not when there are guys who miss the next 3 games due to testing positive.

 

[Jim]

What? No.

I missed a “not” in there. Most people are not getting tested a second time with no symptoms. Football players are tested everyday no matter if they have already tested positive. He’s on a call every Monday with medical personnel from all big ten schools and said they are seeing players test positive a second time.

Point being, I wouldn’t write off the bball team having no positives for the season, simply because we think they all tested positive in the summer.

False positives?

 

[Jim]

False positives?

He mentioned that as a possibility on both ends.

 

[BillyBob]

Who knows, maybe Iowa football has multiple cases of coronavirus reinfection, a 1 in 1 million occurrence.

 

[Jim]

I’ll be sure to let the good doc know that BillyBob from an Iowa message board doubts his information.

 

[BillyBob]

Multiple cases of covid reinfection.

We may want to get Dr. House involved. I would also alert every major healthy agency and news organization around the world.

 

[douglasbader]

I’ll be sure to let the good doc know that BillyBob from an Iowa message board doubts his information.

He's right though, if this were even possibly true it would be setting off alarm bells all over the country and world. The fact that it isn't, and the fact that Iowa has had almost nobody miss a game so far would be an indication that the good doc is either full of shit, you misunderstood him or he is sitting on an exclusive bombshell.

 

[BillyBob]

A college football program in Iowa has multiple cases of covid reinfection.

Thus is some extraordinary stuff.

I will be emailing the head of every major health organization in the world.

Incredible.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Is anyone actually surprised that multiple people on iowa message boards have direct knowledge of people they know getting reinfected?

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

Did you read all of Jim’s posts?

 

[TH1974]

I wish they'd play a few of the 700 games scheduled for Wednesday today and tomorrow.

 

[CamelTones]

Either the doc or the athletic department are scumbags.

 

[Bob Sanders]

Death. Taxes. Thamel.

 

[Hawkstrat]

I watched the virtual press conference thing today, and guess what, bohannon basically agrees.

Strangely enough, the reporters didn't ask Toussaint if he thought basketball was being brought back prematurely.

 

[Greg Obrecht]

JWoke doesn’t crack my top 50 favorite Iowa basketball players of all time.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Jordan does most things for attention. Fortunately you get a lot of attention for game winning shots and punking ISU on their home floor.

 

[BillyBob]

Multiple cases of covid reinfection.

 

[douglasbader]

@Jim you need to tell that doctor friend he is a fucking liar.

 

[BillyBob]

Maybe the conversation took place at a Casey's?

 

[thrawn]

is outrageous claims court meeting in person or only via Zoom?

 

[BBK]

I've issued a notice to appear for Jim's doctor friend in the court of outrageous claims.

 

[BillyBob]

Covid reinfection is somewhere on the order of a 1:1000000 to 1:10000000 occurrence.

The Iowa Football program has multiple cases of covid reinfection. Multiple occurrences of a 1 in 1 million to 1 in 10 million occurrence. All right here in Iowa, within the Iowa football program. I mean, those are some pretty incredible odds.

Hopefully the court of outrageous claims can get to the bottom of this.

 

[douglasbader]

Not only is it a 1:1,000,000 to 1:10,000,000 occurrence that has happened multiple times within the Iowa Football program, but also it has stayed outside the 2-deeps.

Incredible luck!

 

[BBK]

I have a cousin who claims to have had the virus twice.

My man has had múltiple DUIs and at least 4 public intox arrests.

Used to be smart but now he's 40, couldn't get laid in a morgue, on the Trumptard conspiracy train, and can't wait to come see me in Colombia.

Yeah, no thanks. His subpoena is in the mail.

COVID-19 reinfection unlikely for at least six months, study finds
