Please Stop Making Light of FSU


Nov 21, 2020, 12:37 PM

FSU’s medical staff had a duty to protect their student athletes. THEY would be the ones that would have to look the parents in the face if this went sideways. They understood that lots of money had been spent and Clemson was assuring them that all the protocols had followed, but they had a solemn duty to do what they thought right. They made a tough call. This is a game. It can be played later. The worst case for playing can’t be undone.

So please, let’s stop taking shots at FSU.

EXACTLY! If Clemson says they are following the protocol, who is the FSU medical person to say otherwise? Is the protocol not clear? Couldn't the ACC officials verify the protocol? Did FSU think Clemson was not telling the truth? Sadly, i comes across as not wanting to play the game. Did FSU have too many players opting out this week? Wondering who is going to get to the bottom of this?

Just so I understand, it’s okay for their coach to test positive and still play a game but they are protecting their players when a player on the other team tests positive and they choose not to play? So, they would not have had to face the parents in the first scenario?

It’s convenient, stinks, and darn sure isn’t popular but this was a decision that can be defended and won’t be called into question. Their medical staff made a decision at the time the last information was presented, 9AM. Again, it isn’t popular and it’s very easy to poke holes in, but their medical staff made the decision and good luck finding someone in a position of power that’s willing to call that into question.

If you’re an old man and a sports fan how can you not understand the implication of a forfeit? A forfeit puts a W In the win column. When the other team forfeits you automatically get the win. That matters in conference standings.

Re: Please Stop Making Light of FSU


Nov 21, 2020, 12:48 PM

Shut up you ignorant corona bro!

I’m so tired of this BS about corona and Covid this is so freaking overhyped!

Most people testing positive don’t even have symptoms which means they don’t have Covid because a positive test does not mean you’re actually sick it just means you have antigens in your blood which means you were exposed to someone that has Covid.

One if the main reason ms we’re having so many positive tests now is because we’re doing1.5 million tests/day which is exponentially more than we were doing in the past.

There has not been a single verified case where someone has gotten Covid by playing a game against someone else and at this point most players have already been exposed to the virus probably several times.

the death rate is steadily going down and the number of hospitalizations relative to positive Tests is also going down and we are far better at treating this now than we were six months ago.

Very very very few kids college-age and below have been hospitalized with Covid much less died from it. I mean like a super tiny number.

We also know the people dying from Covid are being greatly over exaggerated. There is a video of the head of the state of Illinois health system, their version of what we call DHEC in South Carolina, and she confirmed what many of us have known for a long time which is someone dying with Covid even when Covid has nothing to do with them dying is still labeled a Covid death. Her quote was, even if you are in hospice and dying of cancer and you only have weeks to live and you get Covid and then you die from the cancer they count that as a Covid death! When Covid has absolutely nothing to do with that person dying!

I’m not saying that people should not take this serious I’m not saying that people that have certain serious health conditions don’t need to be careful, but the truth is the majority of the hype around Covid is because this is an election year and because of Donald Trump and anyone that doesn’t believe that he’s lying to themselves! This is about power and control by people that love power and control! And if you don’t understand that you’re part of the problem!

You could pretty much count on your fingers the number of athletes under the age of 25 that I’ve been hospitalized with Covid. Actually has there been any college player that has been hospitalized? I know there has not been a death. And if any of them were hospitalized what other medical conditions did they have that they didn’t know about or that we haven’t been told about. Think about how many college kids every year get an injury and then because of that injury and all the medical attention they get find out they have some type of serious disease or some type of serious heart condition or spinal condition. Who is the kid to drop dead on the basketball court? There have been more kids drop dead on the basketball court in college basketball than will die from coronavirus.

Nov 21, 2020, 1:44 PM

I knew my post would be torched and that is fine. I will probably get ripped for this, too. Let’s be entirely clear, though. I did not say I agreed with the choice the medical staff made. I certainly will concede that I am taking the cancellation at face value and assuming it was truly made by the medical staff. I find intervention by the staff or administration implausible since they are going to be embarrassed now or later. That said, it is perfectly fair to rip me for my naïveté if it turns out that was not the case. I do, however, defend the medical professional(s) who made that call. They stood by their beliefs and made a clearly unpopular (and politically charged) call. That takes courage.

An earlier poster stated quite correctly that the ACC should be held accountable for the way this played out. They mandated the test the day before the match, but they did not require the results to be in prior to agreement on play and team travel. That undoubtedly needs to be fixed.

Re: LOL are you also afraid of the dark? Please be rational.

The conference should’ve immediately stepped in and said FSU play the game or you forfeit. Clemson followed all of the protocols that were established by the ACC before the season started and every team has to follow. Unless Clemson broke protocol, which they did not, then FSU should’ve been forced to play the game. If they decided not to play the game it is not rescheduled but they take a big fat W and we Move on! Why is it hard for you to understand that? And again Covid is not dangerous to healthy people especially not young healthy athletes. This is all BS! And I am factually 100% correct and I dare you to prove me wrong.

I don’t understand. I did not disagree in any way with anything you said. The ACC could have averted this as you said. They didn’t and here we are.

What I am trying to say is the medical staff at FSU are presumably highly trained, highly paid professionals who were presented with a dilemma and they made a choice - a tough, unpopular choice. You (and I, for the record) don’t agree with that choice. That does not mean we cannot appreciate THAT they made their choice. I pay people that know more than I do to make decisions like this one. If I don’t respect their difference of opinion, why hire them in the first place.

The choice here is likely political as much as medical and those who made the decision should be held accountable for their decision. However, I believe this choice was a serious one. Mocking, sarcasm, calling names weakens the case for real accountability. There are very real questions these medical professionals should have to answer.

The ACC announced the news on Saturday morning, a mere three hours before the game was scheduled to kick off at noon ET. The ACC said the status of the game changed early Saturday after a conference call “at which time both teams’ medical personnel were unable to mutually agree on moving forward with the game.”
ACC protocols require teams to be tested for the coronavirus the day before the game, so both Florida State and Clemson were tested Friday. Once the test results are received, both schools get on a call with the ACC to finalize whether or not they intend to proceed with the game.
Yahoo Sports’ Pete Thamel is reporting that a Friday test came back positive for one Clemson player who traveled to Tallahassee with the team. Florida State officials were not comfortable playing after learning about Clemson’s positive test.

Why did the ACC approve that the game could be played?

They would not have approved if they thought it was unsafe. Plus, Clemson offered to stay an extra day or two for more testing to see if it was a false positive. Still a no-go for FSU.

yeah - with the protocols all being followed (listening to the "experts" , except when it's not convenient (right, teacher's unions?), the remote chance that a healthy 18-22 yr old would contract this deadly, ebola-like plague was just too big of a risk.

Here’s what I don’t understand:

Every team (85 players) that has played a game in the ACC this year has tested every player on every Friday. Are you telling me this is the first time any of those players tested positive on a Friday?

BS!

This is unprecedented and there is only one explanation. We all know it.

They played Miami AFTER their own coached tested

positive. Today's little cancellation was about not getting their tail kicked. At the rate Norvell's players are quitting on him, this game won't be made up in 4 weeks .


FSU's problems run far deeper than a virus. They've once again hired a coach in over his head at a P5 school

all players, affirm no infections, play Monday. FSU blew it, made a bad emotional decision. Can't let the virus rule life like this. Bad for football, bad for business, bad for everyone.

you're way off.

Sometimes the road to the truth is so elusive it's confusing and reality becomes illusion.

I would not put FSU and integrity in the same paragraph without the words "lack of" immediately proceeding integrity.
The Jack wagons were just scared to play and looking for an excuse.

I would say that torn ACLs and broken necks are more serious than the slight possibility of catching COVID. How in the world can the medical staff face a parent when someone gets injured?

BS. Clemson has a "medical staff" too. This had NOTHING to do with medicine.
