If y’all want to freeze your manhood off in the 0 degree weather that comes with a February evening, knock yourselves out! We already know some are playing the 22nd. So there will be at least one Monday night game. I’d say after that it moves to Saturday day games. Which I hate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A comorbidity is for example diabetes. If you don't have Covid, you're not likely to die of diabetes suddenly in your 50s or 60s. Covid is exacerbating the problem and causing things we would normally get through easily, such as pneumonia, and making them fatal. 184,697 Americans are dead because Covid made their health issues worse. redtiger, WVU44, Deleted Account and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 Even with a contributing factor, the % of people who have died from Covid +1 is relatively low, Covid +2 (Diabetes, over 65, pneumonia, former cancer patient, etc) is very high. Having had Covid, its real and it sucks, My health is relatively good so I handled it well, but if youre someone who has 2 of those contributing factors its deadly. Im young and like I said in relatively good health and it made me very weak, if youre already weak its game over. Sadly, the original story on Covid from the media was basically "if you catch this you will die, look at Italy" and that has skewed everyone's perception. We now know contributing factors play a larger role in the death rate than Covid itself, generally speaking.

In a country where obesity is a comorbidity for this disease and over half of the US is obese. That’s what worries me. I don’t think our country is equipped to handle it as well as some others have.

redtiger 1,740 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 The fear would be you catch Covid, and you're obese so right there you're +1 and develop pneumonia, then suddenly you're +2 and in trouble. Very reasonable situation and you're taking the proper and necessary precautions and that's all any of us can do. On a side note, a friend of mines husband caught it, both of them and their teenage daughter were of course quarantined and luckily they hadn't had a lot of contact with people outside their immediate family(each other and a few others) because they were taking it serious and social distancing. The response from the daughters boyfriends family was pretty disgusting. Treating her like a leper even after her quarantine period was over, even though she was negative and developed no symptoms whatsoever. Blaming her for putting them and their parents in danger, and these are people who dont wear masks or social distance and fall into the "Covid isnt real" group but when it hit close to home they were hyper defensive toward it and her. The level of pure ignorance out there is astonishing and im honestly surprised, shouldn't be but I am.

The likelihood of one of them passing from Covid is probably much smaller than the actual percentage right now. It is an issue I dont disagree but coupling it with others is where you are going to hurt your prognosis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying obese is good by any standard but there are people at normal weights who are far unhealthier than others who may be overweight or obese. I’m definitely not staying inside 90% of the time. Humans need fresh air & sunshine. Vitamin D is key to fighting off illness. I read a lot of Covid deaths , had vitamin D deficiency: I don’t condemn or judge you though for doing what you think is right for your family though.

swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted September 2, 2020 Back to football, Honaker, Castlewood and Chilhowie have released their schedules. Looks like in all cases, their first game is Monday, February 22, and the remainder of the games are being played on Saturdays. In Honaker's case at 1 pm. In Castlewood's case 7 pm.

BK Addington from GC is a great example of that. Back in the 90s BK played a lot of softball and mens basketball for Hutchins Bros. (this was a story I was told but wouldnt surprise me at all) BK is not a small man. BK had went to the doctor and the doctor told him he needed to watch what he eats and lose some weight. A couple of weeks later that same doctor was playing in a mens league game against Hutchins Bros. He got matchup with BK and BK ran him off the floor. Afterwards the doc said not to be as worried about it as he had alluded to at the check up. Gridiron60 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
