This is a very good post and it sucks to hear about your “Aunt”. One of the first people to die of the virus in our area was a former colleague of mine. He did just turn 70, so some will refer to him as expendable, but he was a very productive guy, doing a lot of good in his community.
You are spot on about the medical professionals and experts, tasked with this. We have far too many armchair QB’s belittling these people and pretending to just naturally have more knowledge and accusing them of pushing some agenda.
I wish I would share your optimism about the board and people coming together, but honestly it’s hard to see right now. I’ve been on here almost two decades and have really enjoyed talking football, food, whiskey, etc, with fellow Husker fans Over the years, many of us have even gotten together for drinks, tailgates, etc. But honestly, that seems like a lifetime ago. I’m going to try to stick to football threads, for now. but might just step away altogether. I can’t believe what is allowed to go on these threads. There is no information or knowledge being shared, just a small group trying to push their agenda and being allow to attack anyone not following along. Over the years, so many have been banned for so much less, but I guess this is the new normal.
Stay safe and GBR
