I am not even sure what you what me to say to this. I have yet to see your model. So not sure what you called and what your criteria was within that model? You really have provided more misinformation in this thread than anyone from the beginning. You know nothing about the American Healthcare system or where the issues are. If you say you have worked in that environment I would call BS. I will not award you any points and may god have mercy on your soul [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23].

Again you are using assumptions to dispute assumptions. “Nobody anywhere”... You do realize they are not looking at the death rate of other countries and blindly explaining this = America right? Alabama doesn’t even equal Nevada in the same country as there are so many differences that come into play. You are looking into data from other countries where the demo, healthcare, doctor/nurse per patient, and overall setup are different and comparing to USA. You have done that since February. Daily. No matter which way you change your words around you are making assumptions based on data with no context and blindly throwing on this, while complaining people shouldn’t listen to assumptions. I get it. You don’t like models. But that is how everything is ran in every sector and even in the government. This is what they get elected for. To gather data and make decisions. If you don’t agree with that elect someone you think will choose the model you like best in a crisis. They will all use models. You will be skeptical of them still. More so if it isn’t someone from your party. It is what it is. That’s the majority of all people. Elect the person that represents you the best cause this aspect of life won’t change.

I disagree. They changed habits and saved lives. Look. It’s impossible to get perfect data from China. Our assumptions were always built on that. We have been saying that. But how do you know they are unrealistic if we did not start social distancing? Do you have numbers that some of the smartest people on the planet don’t? That’s been my issue with your stance. You are making assumptions about assumptions and complaining we shouldn’t have listened to assumptions. Like do you understand the irony? That’s why I am sitting back and trusting the president is getting the information he needs and basing his opinions on. He made a decision based on the information he has. He saved lives. Now, could he have saved more? That’s a debate I don’t care to jump into. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Ha all modeling is assumptions. Every single model that has been put out there is an assumption. We have been saying that from the start!!!! But hey at least everyone in charge of the world limited many deaths to the best of their abilities. As I said yesterday, it is up to the president of the United States to take all of the data available and act. He doesn’t have a magic crystal ball that says if I don’t do this xxxx occurs. That’s called a model. That’s what has been determining his reaction. So yes, a critical eye was used. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Completely agree. In my dream scenario where TJD is still here (completely selfish and I will own that) it doesn’t get much better. To have 5* in three straight classes still on the same team and not because they disappointed is absolutely a title contender. The chances of that playing out that perfectly are small imo, but there is going to be that chance. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app -

Every time I have seen him it’s freakish athleticism with high end skill. He also has a top end motor. The biggest question is his competition. But this kid has that it factor. If he isn’t a star the year he comes in I would be shocked. You add him to a Lander, potentially TJD, a stronger cast of role players than in years past, and I think we got something special to work with here. If TJD isn’t here it could still be special, but he would have to take on a bigger load scoring. I hate asking a freshman to do that. If you add him and Kaufman? Now we are starting to be where we need to be from a talent perspective to compete. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app -
Favorite Basketball Moments
mdn82 replied to Loaded Chicken Sandwich's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
2002 Lakers Mavs game the Lakers came back from 27. I was watching the game at home when my Aunt had a massive heart attack. We got to the hospital just in time for the comeback. One of the weirdest experiences of my life. I had to drive my mom to the hospital to say her goodbyes. I sit in the lobby and watch this all go down. As it went down doctors came to the lobby and explained she is making a miraculous recovery and might actually make it. Within 15 minutes after witnessing a 27 point lead evaporate in the 4th the doctor came out and said he would have given her less than 5% chance to live when she came in and she made it. One of those surreal nights all of the way around. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners -

Yep most previous models didn’t anticipate people would actually listen to the social distancing. Glad it’s working. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Well that’s what the president gets paid for. Fair or not. You don’t like it being like this because it’s Trump as the president. If it were Obama you would be on here screaming at the top of your lungs in the polar opposite direction. Guaranteed. Sorry your president is in office in a time this happened. In spite of the “overplays” you spoke of they used intelligence to fit their agenda. Much like Trump is using the “anti-media” approach to fit his. It’s what a president is there for. Sorry you want a full picture before determining anything. That just isn’t the way it goes. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Here we go with people calling me a Libtard, Leftist, Communist, in 3... 2... 1... because I am a Moderate sick of this playbook... Hell I would have taken Ted Cruz over this. Just no Jim Jordan due to what went down at OSU. That much like Hillary for me too is the only hard no. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Yes, I wish we knew exactly what was going to happen on September 11, 2001. Then we could go back in time to adjust accordingly. Unfortunately that’s not how this works. You have intelligence that warns you of these things and it’s the leaders responsibility to make a decision based on partial information. Sorry that’s unfair, but that’s exactly what that is. It’s been that way for every president. It’s not the media or someone else’s fault he doesn’t have full information. Or whomever we are blaming today. Look I am as moderate as they come, but both dug in sides Republicans and Democrats need to quit towing the company line. It’s old. He didn’t listen to intelligence. Shocking considering he has a whole section of Americans believing his own intelligence is somehow against Americans. Then when he disagrees he starts getting rid of people. When that happens, he screams Fake News!!! It’s a tired playbook. He doesn’t need help. For me his success on the presidency is based on his economy. He is a horrible global leader. He is a horrible uniting domestic leader. He had the economy. Without that what is there to be so defensive of? Republican title? The same one he denounced four years ago as the “Establishment”. It’s truly sad where we are as a country. I am glad he could help friends, family, and yes man in his four years. Without the economy he doesn’t have a leg to stand on. I wonder why they would start putting out information to show this is much better than originally thought... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
