Son of a bitch!  I told you so.  No football this fall.  At least in the Big 10 and Pac 12.  Who’s to blame?  I’ll tell who’s to blame.

This guy, the Michigan pin-head without the mask.  God damn it!  I warned you.  And this was your year too.  Michigan would finally beat Ohio State.  But Noooo!  All becasue you felt compelled to exercise your constitutional right to be a testicular douchebag.  Yes our country is lauded above all others for it’s unique ability to prioritize individual freedoms over goverment restrictions.  But as we all should realize by now our libertarianism has come back to bite us in the ass, overwhelming the need to protect the common good.  The country should be proud of its history of rugged individualism.  But we are finding out we are not so good as a collecive.

And this guy, the man supposedly in control who has more interest in his golf game and television ratings than dealing with a pandemic crisis.  If there is one thing he should be paying attention to it is the collective- like the multitude of professional health experts with a world-wide collection of pandemic data and proven mitigation protocols.  Leading the developed world in pandemic morbidity statistics is not exactly the kind of American exceptualism we expect.  But here we are with chaotic decisions about opening schools being thrust upon us, and no football.  God damn it!  And a president who still can not grasp the fact that he is the person most responsible for this swirling shit storm.  It’s the virus, stupid!  If we do not get it under control soon, CDC director Redfiled has warned we will likely experience one of the most difficult falls in our lifetimes.  Sadly I will miss football.  More importantly I would prefer that my family and friends bypass hospitalizations and funerals. This is still America.  Certainly we are capable of putting aside politics and petty self interests and move forward with something we really should be better at- ensuring the common good.
