    Favorite Class/Professor at Pitt

    Dr. "Bob" Enick was my Chem E advisor and also favorite instructor by far. Had the best time in my senior Process Engineering class. Challenging class that stands out was an "Intro to American Short Stories" class in the Cathedral. A few of us didn't want to be there, prof understood why we...

    Fire Sean Payton.... He has underachieved...

    I agree. I also think his "early success" had a lot to do with the fact he was handed the keys to a SB winning team, and all he had to do was not screw it up right away.

    How did we end up at GT again this year when we were there last year?

    Lyke on The Fan

    Daughter's 200+ marching band has been practicing since AUG and football games since early SEP. Practices only outdoors, and by section, masks, spread out across multiple stadium sections for games. So far no runs on refrigerated trucks or vents - or even a single positive.

    Players are questioning the rationale for playing in 2020

    My fear is this whole thing has triggered something where we are now making decisions based on the scariest, selected anecdotal evidence that we can find rather than on the data. I suppose that same mentality is the reason the state lottery system is a $70B+ industry, but I was always taught...

    OT: Miami Marlins forced to cancel game due to COVID-19 outbreak...

    Then why don't we just quarantine the at-risk instead of shutting everything down since, based on the data, none of us have much to worry about? Stupid is hiding under our beds acting like that's going to stop anything.

    OT: Miami Marlins forced to cancel game due to COVID-19 outbreak...

    Probably not, which obviously explains the panic to shut everything down.

    If one students at UT-Austin dies of Covid, school shuts down

    That's dumb. Like others have said - then it's just a matter of time. So makes no difference then if said student is a morbidly obese vaper?

    I know that some may be offended by this, but the sport of Soccer...

    I think you missed the sarcasm there lol. I can remember standing in the elementary school gym - weird how some things stick with you and others don't - listening to Mr. Wadsworth (Ranger Dann you remember him!) tell us that we needed to start learning about this sport called soccer because...

    OT: Just watched NBC news with Lester Holt........

    Exactly. Somehow while I took a nap, things went from "flatten the curve so that hospitals don't get overrun, let's set up a bunch of field hospitals because the casualties are going to be coming any day now" to "hide under your bed until Earth is germ-free." Haha. Have a nice summer - I'm...

    OT: Just watched NBC news with Lester Holt........

    Coaching a little league game is not going into a "crowd". Parents were all distancing, kids were not permitted to use the dugouts, and a few of the older folks that were there had masks. Beyond that, it's kind of hard to panic when the mortality rate is next to nothing unless you're old or...

    Not good news for those people wondering about a fall football season...

    40% "jump" in the number of cumulative total cases? Of course it went up since 24 APR, because people are still getting infected every day. The important number is the number of new cases per day, which is an indicator of transmission - which has plateaued and GA Dept of Health is currently...

    OT: funny how this board becomes a resource

    We have a pretty good web resource here in AL w/ the Dept of Public Health. Modeled after the JHU site. Currently showing approx 80% of deaths are over 65. With the recent testing at food processing plants and discovery of large numbers of completely asymptomatic people - one would think that...

    OT: Question re: Johnstown's Point Stadium

    Wow, I don't remember hearing that one at all. The only pro-sports recollection I have regarding the Point was when the Steelers came up in 1987 during the strike year and conducted a training camp there for the replacement players. I remember there being some concern about how the local...

    What was your favorite Pitt football road trip? Regular season or bowl.

    In my younger days, Ranger Dan and I drove his Dad's minivan from Johnstown to FL for the Tangerine Bowl to meet up with CrazyPaco and crew.
