Listen , this is all going to be new to everyone. What I like about it is the proactive approach led by the tier system the governor is putting out there, which of course is a moving target date. I see it as when gyms and other places allow flow of people again in a couple of weeks, that should give state of Indiana a good 5 weeks of data to see how COVID is reacting, if there is a large spike of cases as Indiana eases back into "normalcy" then you can expect the July 1st date to change. Just my opinion AND PLEASE: do not make this thread political, we have an entire sub forum full of people who will love to have you share opinions in there. have at it

The smart coaches will have a social gathering of less than 250 players at an amusement park or playground on June 16. (Within current guidelines). Have all the players take turns spitting in each other’s faces, self-isolate for 2 weeks and then everyone can practice July 1st. Problem solved.

What about the murder hornets?

Keeping the purple paint factory in business I see.

New Haven went with a darker gold......by accident, but we like it much better than the standard gold. We went with the large bulldog 2 seasons ago. The players’ numbers are on the other side of the helmet.

And this one is especially for @Howe.

You were all about Brett Kavanaugh. You were/are about Donald Trump. Who has cheated on every single one of his wives, who has 10+ women saying he inappropriately touched them But yet condemn Joe Biden? That's being a hypocrite.

Back in my day, I didn't always play with a helmet, isn't it apparent?

But maybe more reasonable expectations and less inherent challenges at Tecumseh than at North?

Only coach that I know that insisted on the kicking option for scrimmages...

Bombers switched up decals this past year to the Chrome'd out R and other items, kids seemed to enjoy it!!!

Just a thought, and if I have missed it in the thread I apologize. If Indiana pushes back the start date of school for some period of time...there would definitely be an impact for those of us who play games out of state if those states don't follow the exact same delay strategy (or vise versa).

🤢🤮

I have to admit, this doesn't make sense to me. Kids can pay and go to a gym on 5/24 and that is OK, but cannot step foot in the free weight room at their high school for another five weeks after that. If you have a little league field at your school kids can't step foot on the field until 7/1, but if the field is located in a city park it should be safe by 6/14. It seems like the complete lockdown of school campuses isn't consistent with other parts of the reopening plan.

I'm obviously biassed, but I have coached several places and our set up is pretty cool. Our pregame pyrotechnics, loud music and overall aesthetics are pretty cool. However, they really play second fiddle to our setting right in the middle of town. When we enter the field we walk down the street that a lot of our kids grew up playing on. It is something that our kids really look forward to and it gives me goosebumps every. single. time.

Dr. Brian R. Peterson, M.D. signed the death certificate affirming that Professor Wells' cause of death was "Complications of novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) infection. But the main fact is that the meme is misleading. This man was BOTH a former lieutenant for the Milwaukee Police Department and a Professor of Criminal Justice at the University of Memphis. So, the man didn't die twice from COVID-19, as the meme states. The man died once and his obituary in Wisconsin focused on his role with the Milwaukee Police Department, while his obituary in Mississippi (he lived in Mississippi and commuted to Memphis for his work there) focused on his role as a criminal justice professor.

Not a typical meme, but too cool to pass up.

Huge props to former head coach and AD, John Hutton. He had a huge part in the design of the field.

I'm unsure as to why you keep repeating this lie. Moderators can see the real names of all GID members.

Certainly not a typo. Committing a grammatical error while explaining the superiority of your education over someone else's. Definitely a foot in the mouth on your part. Then try to cover it up by name-calling. Laughable.

How Big Will These Federal Programs Get? No One Knows. https://mises.org/power-market/how-big-will-these-federal-programs-get-no-one-knows The Fed’s most recent balance sheet update shows that only $19 billion from the PPP Liquidity Facility has been utilized thus far; therefore, we will continue to monitor this amount. Unfortunately, it could reach $600 billion in the months ahead. Both programs are unique because the public will be able to directly participate compared to other programs, in which most cannot, such as various Fed asset purchases, lending, and bond programs. However, a third program might include Main Street as well. This too has been expanded as of last week: the $500 billion Municipal Lending Facility (MLF). The population requirements were lowered to accept cities with 250,000 residents (formerly 1 million) and counties with 500,000 residents (formerly 2 million). This may spawn more grant programs and other “investments” that could sweep the country and trickle down to members of the public. Between the maximum capacity of these three programs, the Fed may contribute a $1.7 trillion increase to the money supply. How big the balance sheet will be by the time life returns to normal is anyone’s guess. Also keep in mind that the effect of the banks later pyramiding this money is rarely ever discussed. Nevertheless, all this debt raises another interesting question: How will we pay this money back? The Wall Street Journal recently posed a similar question to St. Louis Fed president James Bullard. When asked about “the inevitable day of reckoning,” he replied: We’re borrowing and we’re gonna have to pay that back in the future, so our future tax burden is that much higher. But can we handle it as a nation? I think we can. Should we take the advice of one of the most respected central bankers in the country? After all, we’ve been told that it was the Fed that brought us out of the last financial crisis. Surely, they can do the same thing again, only this time on a much larger scale…

COVID-19 wallops meat plant workers; shortages hit shelves, fast food https://arstechnica.com/science/2020/05/meat-plants-become-covid-19-hotspots-58-test-positive-at-one-plant/ The researchers also noted cultural and economic challenges to controlling disease spread in meat-processing facilities. For instance, one facility had workers who spoke 40 different primary languages. And “many workers live in crowded, multigenerational settings and sometimes share transportation to and from work, contributing to increased risk for transmission of COVID-19 outside the facility itself.” For these reasons, they concluded that these facilities are at high risk of outbreak, which “requires prompt action to decrease risks to workers, preserve facility function, and maintain the food supply.” Breaking the chain Once COVID-19 begins spreading in a meat facility, it could easily become a source of infection for the greater community—or vice versa. Of the top 10 metropolitan areas with the highest new confirmed cases per capita, five have meat processing plants with outbreaks, The New York Times noted Wednesday. Meanwhile, the United States has already begun experiencing shortages in certain meat products, including fresh beef, due to COVID-19-related closures and disruptions. Hundreds of Wendy’s fast-food restaurants have run out of hamburgers, and several grocery chains are limiting purchases of certain meat items, the Times reported Tuesday. The chairman of Tyson Foods took out full-page advertisements in the Times and The Washington Post last week warning that “the supply chain is breaking.” To better protect meat-plant workers, the researchers behind the MMRW report made several recommendations, such as slowing down the pace of production, installing physical barriers between work stations, screening employees for symptoms, requiring masks, offering paid sick leave, and stepping up sanitation and hygiene stations. However, workers have reported that meat companies have ignored health recommendations since the pandemic began, including failing to offer masks and other protective gear and encouraging people to work while sick. According to an independent tally of COVID-19 cases in meat-plant workers by Midwest Center for Investigative Reporting, there have been at least 10,800 cases from 170 plants in 29 states, including 45 deaths as of May 6.

It happened in Frankfort about 10 years ago.

Still doesn't make the question any less valid: The U.S. Congress declared war on Vietnam?

Yeah, and I'm sure those are real names being used 100% of the time. How naive.

The U.S. declared war on Vietnam?

Has he collected your vote yet?

I actually think the IHSAA and department of education are acting smart...up until the other day, i thought the government in this state was too. Nothing like putting politics over people.
