Most are perfectly willing to accept 1,500-2,000 Deaths per Day.

IT IS THE NEW NORMAL IN AMERICA.

We live with daily mass shootings, as if it's no big deal. We'll live with this the same way. It's how America rolls.

I stand by what I said. Most people don't care. If they did, the majority would wear masks.

Watch tonight's football game. I bet there's less than 10% of the crowd wearing masks.

As of now thee are no starters from UGA on the Covid list. If they can be careful, fans could too. If I were able, I'd be there with my vaxed and boosted self with two masks on.

I will be barking at my tv and hopefully not clutching my chest on the floor when this is over.

and the stadium is almost half full already. Not too many masks on either. It's in the teens outside and they decided to let fans in early. Purdue fan here rooting for the Dawgs!

Taking a knee. When he heard FG was coming to one of the Alabama's games he said " I am honored I think that a president is interested enough". Hardly a ringing endorsement

Traffic downtown was insane. I left work at 5 and took my life in my hands getting out of the parking garage.

Don’t really care about this SEC Championship.

Ive been able to view only one bowl game this year - this one won't be any different.

Just think of all the adverts myself and others have missed out on....all those Madison Avenue dollars down the drain....damn!

Guess I'll be doing something worthwhile and useful instead of watching disease spread.
