Didn't say it wasn't real. Overblown similar to your reactions.
My reaction is that you are wrong. I could say more, but its not worth my time.

Seriously? Why don't you tell that to the people of California? California is completely running out of ICU beds there due to Covid-19. My relatives are nurses and doctors in the Los Angeles area, and the situation is really getting worse everyday.
I hope that 2021 is better. as you know, some people don't care. I hope Florida is treating you well.
Traveling during COVID pretending it’s safely done while criticizing those who question the reality of the so called “pandemic”. Hypocrite.
You're such a clown.
There are way to travel to safely travel without interfacing with other people. My family and I "drove" to Cocoa Beach. We didn't interface with anyone other gas stations and we kept distance 30 feet from everyone. We quickly went in/out of rest area restrooms with masks. When we're Cocoa beach, we're self isolated from everyone for 14 days. I am unlike you to pretend that the pandemic is overblown. You must be a "Trumper" who said that the pandemic will just "go away" or better yet, inject oneself with clorox to kill covid-19.

Name calling. Your idea of intelligent conversation. All I said was it was overblown and you irrationally flew off the handle about crap I didn't say or infer. After establishing yourself as a COVID disciple and fear monger, you then admit you're currently engaging in non-essential travel. Travel of which happens to be against the request of your state government. https://www.vdh.virginia.gov/corona...eas-with-widespread-ongoing-community-spread/ Given your prior statements and the fact you thumbed your nose at the advice of your state government, taking you seriously anymore has been reduced to a joke.you should know there are some people you can't have an intelligent conversation with. Don't waste your time. we already have enough negativity with everything that's going on. for record, I love car travel. we drive to englewood florida every other year. we meet a couple that drove straight through from Montreal.

In the meantime Merry Christmas!!!
I'll just come out and say it, COVID19 is an overblown bunch of BS.
I am feeling great in cocoa beach FL
At the moment the global CFR is around 3%. So if you get infected, you have a 3 in 100 chance of dying. (1 in 30!). Current CFR in the USA is a little better at 2% (so 1 in 50).
Of course within those CFRs are various subgroups but it's still not a good look. Hopefully the vaccines are going to turn this around a lot. Time will tell.
Hey @bobleenov1963, hope you are having a great Christmas. Big Merry Christmas from all of us here Down Under.
You know, the first time I ever heard of Cocoa Beach was watching "I Dream of Jeannie" back in the early 1970s. I thought it was a fictional place only to learn years later it was a REAL place.
And now here I am chatting to someone who is actually in Cocoa Beach. LOL. I would ask you to say "Hi" to Tony Nelson but I guess he has probably passed on to the next level by now.

Booster club seeks return of U of M men’s tennis with help from creative funding solution
This past fall, the University of Minnesota Board of Regents voted 7-5 to discontinue Gopher men’s tennis, men’s gymnastics, and men’s indoor track and field after the 2020-2021 season, citing financial concerns due to the pandemic.www.fox9.com
Drake will gain 2 players who will transfer from instate rival Iowa when it stops men's tennis at the end of next semester.Add Iowa to the list (for men’s tennis)
I believe this is one of the first schools from a power five conferences to drop tennis. They dropped four sports
Drakes men's tennis coach is currently facing a lawsuits for renaging on 2 scholarship offers earlier this year.
I'm suprised there are no contract clauses allowing Colleges to reserve their right to exclude or renegotiate offers up to a certain cutoff date.
If you read entire article, it stated:
It is not as simple as it looks.
this unethical treatment will backfire against Drake coach, when future players wont verbally commit and coach cant get walk ons.
Aren't scholarships on a year by year basis unless a player has a multiyear agreement with a Power 5 school? Coaches have until July 1 to cut or reduce athletic aid for the next year. If the coach told them in June he didnt break any rules but it seems unethical. The situation is somewhat different in that they didn't have aid to begin with to cut. It doesnt sound like they signed an NIL, and if even they did, that is usually valid for just one year. Dont coaches tell walk ons I dont have $ for you freshmen year, but I might have $ soph year? Verbal promises are not legally binding. I dont think coaches can definitely promise academic aid either-usually that has to come from financial aid office. Coaches can give an estimate based on past experience, player's GPA, and test scores, but Fin Aid is "supposed" to be independent of athletics.
http://www.ncaa.org/student-athletes/future/scholarships "If a school plans to reduce or not renew a student-athlete’s aid, the school must notify the student-athlete in writing by July 1 and provide an opportunity to appeal. In most cases, coaches decide who receives a scholarship, the scholarship amount and whether it will be renewed." However, with senators, states, and players going after NCAA for NIL, maybe they will also try to change rules for verbal commitments to improve player rights. But since any changes wont be retroactive, these guys are probably out of luck. However, this unethical treatment will backfire against Drake coach, when future players wont verbally commit and coach cant get walk ons.
It all depends on how you do the accounting, and how full your enrollment is.
