Add in those with only mild symptoms and that number doubles.

2020-21 University of North Dakota Hockey Season
TheFlop replied to Frozen4sioux's topic in Men's Hockey
How many college hockey teams actually make money? That's what scares me. -
LM and Philadelphia Macaroni.......but been some big losses to like Wells Concrete. I wonder if that 600 jobs is a net number that takes that into account.

Unfortunately it's gotten to the point where you can't have a talk about UND sports without also discussing politics......since politics is what is threatening to impact/cancel UND sports

2020-21 University of North Dakota Hockey Season
TheFlop replied to Frozen4sioux's topic in Men's Hockey
Unfortunately this is likely how the season will end, before it even gets started. College hockey can absorb the loss of the Ivy league schools but if even a few more pull the plug there won't be enough teams left to fill the gap. Ivy league players most likely won't jump ship because of the prestigious education they get there.......but high end recruits aren't gonna just sit around UND forever hoping that there will eventually be some form of a college season. -
Using the word systemic = an attempt to use stereotypes without being shouted down. If you want to make it in the US, you typically can regardless of your background. It's not always easy, but it is possible.
-
Ah yes....the polls. Wait until November. The silent majority is waiting in the wings again, just like 2016. Once again, the Dems just needed to throw someone normal up and they would win with ease....and they failed.
-
Lol, keep telling yourself that. He keeps doing what he wants when he wants and the left just can't stop crying. He's not always right but the inability of his opponents to be the bigger person is laughable.....and it's precisely what's gonna get him re-elected.
-
Maybe different with sporting events, but with most of the big concerts that have been affected, cancelled = immediate refund and postponed = your choice of keeping ticket for the rescheduled event or getting refund. However with the postponement it can get tricky. You only have 30 days from the day the new date is announced to declare your refund. If no new date is immediately announced then the 30 day window starts 60 days after the initial postponement is announced. Would UND "postpone" the event until 2022 leaving alot of people's money in limbo for 2 years?

Not necessarily just a past character issue....... the article alluded to the fact that he and his family/representation haven't been real forthcoming with prospective draft teams ( and that he hasn't come across well in interviews). It's ironic because he is essentially replacing someone that despite what some saw as underperformance, was a very likable guy (Tychonik)......who was pretty open and gracious even after he all but publicly announced that he wasn't good enough to get the playing time that he wanted at UND. Win baby win.
-
I'd drop him but I realize that won't happen. I hope he still gets drafted high so there's a better chance of him moving on quicker. If it was "just" some name calling it could be chalked up to being young and dumb. Years of torment that included hitting a handicap kid? That's being wired differently.

Is it possible to have much of anything well documented by members of a reality TV show?
-
If the same hypersensitivity tracking data was used each flu season as has been used for Covid the results would be much similar
-
Pete Haga has his food truck to fall back on. Just need to sell more bottles of water.
-
Agreed. Bochenski doesn't win without David peeling off some of Browns left/downtown/artsy-fartsy votes. Still might not win, but that is his path to victory.
-
All the more reason to question the legitimacy of the WHO. I'm sure the doctor that spilled the beans in the CNBC article has paid a price for not sticking to the narrative.
-
You mean 40 million people didn't need to lose their jobs and young people didn't need their Spring activities including school related ones ripped away from them?
-
Just wait until the pre-election wave.....I mean second wave.
-
As you can see by tnt's ABC poll link ...Hillary was up by that much. Now despite the constant bad press, Trump is sitting in about the same spot. Kind of sucks being able to see what is coming and not being able to stop it huh?
-
Fluky win.....lol....how about two elections in a row having a fluky nomination? First Hillary and more recently Biden screwing over Bernie because they are part of the old guard.
-
You still don't get it. The Dems had a better chance of beating Trump before the Covid overreaction and now the civil unrest which they've seized as another opportunity to divide. Just like last election, there is a large but mostly silent majority that doesn't drink the Trump Kool aid, but they recognize that he's the better option than what the Dems are throwing out there (again). It's not just crusty old white conservatives either. There are plenty of people of color who have carved out nice little lives for themselves that are pissed off at the collateral damage that they have felt due to the Covid overreaction. Also, for every 1 person advocating for defunding the police, there are thousands that live in neighborhoods where a patrol car passing through every hour is the only thing that keeps pure chaos from breaking out.

What was the final LM Windpower positive rally? 145 positives? Based on doom and gloom predictions that should have led to what...10-15 deaths? And since only half of the employees were tested maybe double that to 20-30 deaths? You know why that didn't happen? Because that's not the easiest job in the world and it requires a certain level of health/physical activity for the most part. Once again proving the point that healthy people should have never been faced with this ridiculous quarantine. You had 800 employees in a petri dish.....almost all certainly exposed to Covid at some point there....and yet bodies aren't strewn all over the parking lot. This stopped being about stopping the spread of the virus at least a month ago if not longer. Lock down the long term care facilities..... impose the strictest controls on employees that work there....those with weakened immune systems are more than aware of the risks and that Covid isn't their only worry.....let the other 99% of the country get back to living life.
-
Take the bad 2017-2018 flu season when 79k people died from it.......and add in the extra Covid-19 level of hyper-sensitivity in counting deaths which would shoot that number much higher .....and you have our current Covid-19 situation (minus the crashed economy of course). The doctors that keep refusing to take a big picture perspective of this virus are just as guilty as any leadership or media entity is in my opinion. 700 of your medical brothers and sisters just lost their jobs in largely unaffected ND and most of MN......but yet few doctors are willing to speak up against the ridiculousness of it all.

For those that are obsessed with hating Trump, I hope you realize that the states that are solidly in his corner come November are already open. NY and CA can do whatever they want because their vote is already known. However, for Trump to win again taking states like Michigan and Wisconsin will go a long way. And the whiny b*tch governor's in those states are making it awfully easy for people to vote Trump when they see their leaders constantly moving the goalposts and making arbitrary decisions like visiting the Home Depot is fine but kids playing baseball isn't
-
I could be wrong, but I don't recall states routinely stating flu deaths as one number (before the outbreak is even done)......only to significantly revise the number downward like Colorado did once it was determined how many people Covid truly killed. On an unrelated note, at least we don't hear of any flu deaths or pneumonia deaths since the Covid pandemic hit.
