The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

The Big Ten announced it would hold only intra-conference games if the college football season gets off the ground, and the ACC & Pac 12 are expected to shortly follow suit.

Death rate in the southern states ticked up a little bit around the June 22-23 time frame, but so far has not exploded the way the case count has, or even for that matter reached the peak rates of late April and early May.
It looks like death rate is moving up now, sadly. COVID deaths had averaged about 170 per week in Texas from mid-May through mid-June. In the past 7 days there have been 420 COVID deaths recorded in Texas. The previous peak rate in early May was at 239 deaths in a seven-day period. Obviously this is nowhere near the 9000-death week that New York experienced in mid-April, and hopefully no part of the country sees that ever again, but it is similar already to the peak deaths in the New Orleans outbreak in April (467 deaths in Louisiana one week). With hospitalizations still increasing over the past week, this is likely to get worse before it gets better.

And Atlanta Mayor send the city back to Phase one or as it was once known, stay at home lockdown. Of course Georgia Gov dickhead says he won't allow it to be enforced.
I say we hold trials for every politician who went against expert recommendations and put lives at risk/cost lives when this is all said and done. If not in actual courtrooms, in the history books.

Pac-12 also announces an intra-conference only schedule, but WITH a delayed start. And the commissioner of the Pac-12 also tested positive.
I hate to say it, but college football is trending the wrong way and seems like these actions, in this conference and others, is just delaying the inevitable.
