Wallace and #12 had a heated conversation on camera. A few plays later, Wallace makes two big catches down field. Can thank #12 for waking up Wallace.

Didn't seem too interested in grabbing that fumble either.

The logic is this. "We can cancel whatever we want, whenever we feel like it. We don't need a reason. You will accept the "New Normal™" or we'll keep cancelling things for as long as we feel like it. Might be months. Might be years. Covid-20, Covid-21, Covid-22 are ready to go, if needed." This will continue until individual communities reject the New Normal™.

No SEC, so maybe no SEC audience? The matchups weren't very good. (Will be interesting to see how week 3 ratings match up) Got to factor in the forced Covid/Society lectures from announcers. They're a big part of all sports broadcast right now...even CFB. During Notre Dame game, the camera showed students dancing in the stands and the announcers started a guilt-trip-lecture on social distancing which included a threat of more shutdowns. I changed the channel, as I always do now, the moment the announcers pull out their Covid/Society talking points. If it's not my school on TV, it's just not worth it to subject myself to the incessant lecturing and fear-mongering propaganda.

"You must have never read a history book...We were fighting for our independence...no amount of US pressure would have ever stopped us." -Vietnamese foreign minister to Robert McNamara, in 1995, decades after McNamara helped conduct a war in Vietnam. (from Fog of War) If the Money behind the newly appointed B1G commissioner thought Alabama and the southern states would willingly submit and commit cultural/economic suicide, then they've never visited SEC country.

The moon MIGHT be a gigantic egg that COULD hatch a space dragon that eats the Earth. Will this happen? I don't know. And neither do you. Hence the concern.

Or they could have started earlier, with more bye weeks for rescheduled games. The 'positive casedemic' is going to be an issue all year. And, there are very powerful people out there who are massively invested in keeping the US locked down...until they present the solution. College football in September is a return to the 'Old Normal' and that threatens the 'New Normal™'. They're going to do everything they can to stop it. This football season has become an important political and economic battleground. Expect delays. Expect fearmongering. Expect negative propaganda. Keep playing football games.

It's a massive business that creates tens of thousands of jobs and keeps the lights on at Universities all over the US And those Universities are the lifeblood for hundreds of thousands of people who live and work in the towns surrounding these schools. Economies are interconnected. I do wonder how many people advocating for cancellation of other people's livelihoods have lost their own jobs or had their businesses destroyed by doomsday predictions that still haven't come true. CDC says this flu, on its own, has killed roughly 11,000 people in 8 months. Average age of those who died is 79 years old. Each year, roughly 36,000 people die in car wrecks. For the 0-24 age range, you're far more likely to die in a car wreck than covid. Should we stop people from driving? If you want to quit your job for a year and wait around until the TV says it's "safe", go for it. I'm sure you can do without money for 1 year, right?

But, but...the guy that's famous for drawing cartoon dicks said we shouldn't play football this year.

I'll wager "Science Incorporated" has already discovered "new research" that says the Pac-12 should hurry up and do what everyone else is doing. College football may be the only thing strong enough to derail 6 months of induced mass hysteria.

3 Questions. In the last month, how may people who've tested positive were actually sick? Is a pandemic of "asymptomatic carriers" really a pandemic? Is anyone spot testing these testing kits?

"In 2 weeks its going to be really bad...the hospitalizations and deaths are on deck and are going to hit hard very soon". This has become a popular meme. Every. Single. Day. Since March..."In 2 weeks, it's going to be hell on earth. You'll see!" Forever moving the goal posts to keep fear alive. And now you don't even have to be sick. We're counting 'positive tests'...even if you're completely healthy.

Fixed it for you.

This is not an unpopular take. Exhibit A: nosediving ratings. The ESPN-Disney Colossus has been playing politics with its sports "Programming" for a while now and people are tuning out. Turn on any sports radio station (It'll be owned by ESPN-Disney) and count the seconds until you're lectured on the awfulness of society or how you should be afraid of getting sick. Most people look to sports (and movies and tv) for entertainment, not to be lectured and told what to think. Being told what to think has traditionally been the job of the regular "News". Your take will undoubtedly trigger the roaming pack of rabid virtue signalers on surly, so I could see why you'd think it was unpopular. But your take reflects the view of most real sports fans. The ratings will prove this.

They should definitely cancel the season. In fact, they should boycott the 2021 season. Truly, if the owners can't fix society by the end of 2021, the players should boycott indefinitely. Sure, they might have to get regular jobs, like regular people. And yeah, those regular jobs probably won't pay $400,000 for 2-3 hours worth of work...but that kind of personal sacrifice makes a powerful statement. The best way to change society is to de-platform yourself.

Why is it Covid fanatics want more and more censorship? Why are you guys so afraid of debate? Are you afraid independently minded people might read something that makes them question the big, scary narrative? That would be bad, huh? If people started asking questions.... Quick, block anyone that opposes your viewpoint! I used to respect you, dude. Look what fear is doing to you...you're asking for censorship...on surly.

Covid is a religion. It has it's own priests on TV telling you what's good and what's bad. It uses fear to control its followers. If you doubt the TV priests, you're a blasphemer who should be excommunicated. Covid has become a full blown religion. This 'event' has taught me which of my friends think critically, and which believe "If it's on main stream TV, it must be true!" Shun the disbelievers!

What's the opposite of a "truther"? Is that what you are?

"Just kidding. We meant we'll be mostly talking about 'political/social change' from now on." -ESPN/Disney.

There was a time when the Catholic Church had more power than kings, but I'm not sure they had more power than the Media Church has today. If the Media Church tells you to rename your building, or change a song, you have to do that. Or else! Let's keep it going. Obviously, Austin will need to change the city's name. "Slavery was a very important issue to Austin, one he called "of great interest" to him.[23] Austin was a periodical slaveowner throughout his life..." -wikipedia Not much ambiguity there! And we'll need to change the name of Washington D.C....and hundreds of Washington named bridges, towns, schools, monuments will need to change their names. Washington Monument will need to be demolished, obviously. "Washington owned and worked African slaves his entire adult life." -wikipedia I think it's safe to say that Amerigo Vespucci, as a titled citizen of Spain in the late 1400, definitely had slaves or condoned slavery -since thee is no record of him being explicitly against slavery. Sorry, America, gonna have to change that name to something else. No half measures. Thus spake Media.

Did no one tell you? Media is the new god. Every night and every day, millions of devout religious followers turn on their TV’s, eager to hear/see the Media’s holy News-message. Do not fear, Media priests will tell you what is right and what is wrong. Media priests will tell you what is good and what is bad. Media priests will tell you which thoughts are clean in the sight of the Media and which are unclean. OBEY the Media! For those who doubt the holy Media priests, you will be branded a heretic (racist, conspiracy theorist). You could be shunned and possibly ex-communicated from Media’s new world society. Heathens! Harken unto me! Turn on your TV/phone/radio/internet devices and prostrate yourself before your god, the Media! Put no other god before the Media!

You guys really can't see anything other than red and blue can you? The entire world is either red or blue. It's impossible that anyone could have thoughts that aren't RED OR BLUE. There's a bigger game being played, but it would appear only a handful of people on this board are aware of it.

Epstein has always been the nuclear option. You can't drop your Epstein bomb without causing massive damage to those who have sworn undying loyalty to your cause. (Like the Clintons) NWO must be 100% this will destroy Trump, because there's no doubt it'll wipe out a lot of important pieces on their side of the board. I hope they pull the trigger and we see the whole thing, but I don't think they will. I'd wager, at this very moment, there are a lot of frantic phone calls happening. Within a day or two, Jeffrey Epstein gets abducted by aliens or has a heart attack and the case gets vaulted forever.

One day after the President threatens the Federal Reserve on twitter, the State of New York FINALLY decides to arrest Mr. Epstein. Amazing timing on this arrest, considering how long they've known this guy was a serial child molester. The optimist in me hopes they will arrest every politician that fell into the "Epstein honeypot". How great would it be if villainous politicians, celebrities, and royalty around the world were confronted with their sex crimes against children? How great would it be for the victims of those sex crimes to be given a platform to speak out and reveal who did what? This one arrest could deter thousands of future crimes. The cynic in me thinks that this is the NWO rattling its sabers, warning the American President that he better start their war in Iran and he better stop threatening the Federal Reserve...or else. If Trump plays ball, the Jeffrey Epstein story magically goes away again. If the President doesn't play ball, we get another protracted, double secret investigation that is discussed ad nauseum on every MSM,channel until November 2020, at which point it concludes with zero convictions, zero revelations, and zero justice for the victims.

And the son of Mr. New World Order himself tweeted this on the fourth of July. Seems a bit on-the-nose.
