Notes From All Over -- Part 1 -- October 5, 2020

Herd immunity: not one Tennessee Titan tested positive today.

By the way: this is the reason why tracking the number of tests doesn't matter -- from The WSJ -- The NFL, which has conducted more than 400,000 tests already, said that it was different from American communities because it tests its players almost every day. “That’s a very different scenario than typical community spread,” Sills said. “That being said, we’ll continue to try to learn from these situations.” Can you imagine every American being tested everyday? Hey, a new  Watch app? Oxygen saturation is a late indicator.

Most ridiculous comment and worthy of the Geico Rock nomination forAndrew Beaton and Louise Radnofsky, over at The WSJ:

One finding is already painfully on display. Even the most powerful, most tested institutions on the planet—including the NFL and the U.S. presidency—aren’t immune to this virus. Blocking an outbreak requires not just near-daily testing to prevent the virus from entering a group, but also protocols for social distancing and contract tracing that must be followed to impede the virus’ transmission if it does get in. 

BLM: after scoring their lowest ratings ever, the face of the BLM walked off the court before the game was over last night. Sorry. Not sorry. Said he thought the game was over. LeBron's team got beat in "one of the most stunning upsets in MLB history"-- ESPN2 this morning. Earlier it was reported game 2 of the BLM finals reported a fall-off 68% viewership (or however it was reported) but now this which I missed, this was game 1 -- one would think that game one of this championship series would have set all-time records -- wow, fans must really, really dislike the face of the BLM.

China matters.

How 'bout them Cowboys?

Re-posting: this just warms the cockles of my heart --
