(3) time to discuss how Lemonis is a genius and great for MSU
(4) time to appreciate pure sports like watching our own kids swing a bat on Saturday afternoon
(5) make our own sports in our neighborhoods
(6) spend 4 more hours in at work on an independent project - do something great

I glance at CNN, but can find about twenty other sources that confirm this administration's mishandling of this and other important "policies," mainly created to make themselves wealthy.

So with baseball season being suspended, do we even have a inkling of an idea of when it might come back? Thoughts of it being suspended for the rest of the season? I can't see that happening to be honest. But if it was, I think it is a blessing in disguise for us with Ginn, Smith, and TA out with injuries.

We'll probably get a fully healthy TA. I don't imagine we risk it with Smith and I doubt we see JT again. In regards to our pitching since we don't have anything else to talk about, our potential rotation next year could be downright stupid. McLeod, Wild Thing, Smith, Harding. Add that to what looks like a future closer in Landon Sims. And that's without even considering what'll happen with JT.

We have a bright future on the mound! The young arms Lemonis and Foxhall have brought in are outstanding! They shutdown one of the best offenses in all of college baseball for 2 straight games. I'm super impressed with the recruiting and development of our pitchers.

This was a breakaway layup and Trump airballed his initial response. We're slowly getting to where we should be, but the initial response to it will likely cause a wider spread outbreak than China (in terms of area not necessarily population.) They flubbed the start too. Which makes it even more infuriating seeing Trump flub it because he had a clear playbook of what to do and not to do. China's fix to their initial response has seemingly worked. We appear to be closely going that path but it's not a Trump initiated path.

This is observable from any point in the political spectrum. We have billion dollar industries shutting down because of concerns of having many people in one place and the man is still holding rallies. The dem candidates are guilty of that too. It's bad from all angles and shows just how bad America's healthcare policies are.

How about discussing the folks on the front line of this? They are heroes by any definition. The healthcare workers on the front line are literally risking their lives to do their jobs, The data basically puts them in the same statistical risk as 80 year olds. How about we discuss the researchers who are literally working to they drop to come up with a treatment or a vaccine? How about we make heroes out of the absolutely dedicated people who put their own families health on the line in nursing homes under siege. These people are REAL heros. They aren't politicians or overpubicised athletes. They are people like you and me, who basically are drafted agiainst their will to serve in this war.

Anyone blaming a politician for this, no matter who that jackass is, is part of the problem. This needs to transcend politics. Whoever can't do that, is absolutely the problem.

This absolutely is a political issue since we can't figure out how to make healthcare work.

The fact that people are scared they'll lose their homes if they get sick, so they don't get tested is absolutely a political issue. We don't get the luxury of saying it's not because we've ****ed healthcare hard.

It's the problem with this country. We elect people to be community leaders with the express notion that they can't be communist. And now that we have a community wide issue, we see the repercussions of having people in charge who don't care for the community.

I'd say it's 90% Trump is infected with this corona virus. Also it's 5% he dies from it. Because we have the ability to have top notch care. We can also have it for everyone. But having it accessible to everyone is too much of a communist / socialist thing.

You're right it should transcend politics. It doesn't because politics prevents it. This should be a non issue. We should have the million+ test kits available. They should be free for everyone. The only people who disagree are in politics and have constantly prevented us from being ready for any kind of outbreak like this. I wish it wasn't a political issue. But the people who are conveniently also trying to take away more internet privacy RIGHT NOW (look up the earn it bill) have made it where americans simply cant afford or are too afraid to properly handle this.

We should be following Italy's playbook and suspending all bills, jobs, etc. People are going to keep going into work sick and infect more and more because they can't afford it. It's going to cost more American blood. It's pathetic and we have a right to be properly outraged. Especially since we still aren't taking this as seriously as we should.

Anyone trying to make whatever political points for whatever side they they advocate out of this is THE problem. I will NOT comment on it no matter what I agree or disagree with.

This is my point. The leaders in place don't share this sentiment. This should be nonpartisan. This is easy stuff. This isn't a complex issue like abortion. People should have access to healthcare. It helps everyone. We're on the same page with that. I'm angry at the ones who are not. Especially those with power.

You need to check your sources besides CNN for facts. Regardless of your feelings about Trump, we owe it to any human to report and represent the facts and not biased "journalists" opinions.

The Trump campaign specifically cited a seven-minute segment hosted by CNN's Ana Cabrera that repeated the debunked false claim Trump said the coronavirus was a "hoax."

The statement said, what CNN did "is not sloppiness or poor journalism – it is intentional malice and deception, and simply more evidence that the 'news' channel is the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party."


Such tactics are shocking and inexcusable, the campaign added, especially since "at least six entities have debunked the false claim CNN is still spreading."

The campaign lists six sources, which includes FactCheck.org and CBS News, that describe how the Trump statement is twisted to make it appear he termed the coronavirus a hoax.

The campaign's list leads off with The Washington Post, which usually is harshly critical of the president.


But in this case, The Washington Post states, "The full quote shows Trump is criticizing Democratic talking points and the media's coverage of his administration's response to coronavirus. He never says that the virus itself is a hoax."

Check it out yourself.
