Just letting you guys know in case you want to hear from our new #1 CB on a national platform. 11:05 AM PST. I personally like the signing, so I will be tuning in. I have nothing else to do since I'm working at home these days.

Very underrated Steady fundamentally sound .....like Webster.. Jenkins was way too boom or bust,though when he was boom he was literally the best corner in the league (I personally think it was more an effort thing) Give me a bunch of very good fundamentally sound football players on defense and the O line (with a top qb and a playmaker on either side of the ball)and you will win 75% of your games for a very long time

Ironic quote from the guy that was coined "jackrabbit." If he could chase rabbits as a kid, any excuse he has to not be able to hold down a WR for 10 seconds, is gah-bage. Anyone remember the week he had after we traded him? Total loaf here

I have nothing else to do since I'm working at home these days. This is pretty funny. I've been working from home for the past 20 years and I almost always have actual work to do while home. Not that I couldnt stop and watch a video I wanted to see. But if you have nothing else to do you arent working from home - you're just home.

I get paid on a salary basis, so I GUESS it is working when you're getting paid, right? LOL. Seriously, there has been an adjustment. I have way more distractions (family, the couch, etc) here than at my office.

Well, James just said that a big part of a reason why he came to the Giants is because he wanted to come play for a big city. Interesting....... (just posting this in case you are not listening).

Damn, I didn't know that he only allowed 1 TD against Julio Jones, Michael Thomas, and Mike Evans this past season.

I stay humble. I have friends that are having to make worse adjustments like applying for unemployment for the first time in their lives. Things are crazy right now.

There is going to be a time in the next 1-2 weeks where a serious decision is going to have to be made -- there is going to have to be a weighing of the effects of this virus versus the effect on our economy and people's lives as a result of a prolonged shut-down of our country. Just had a conversation with my town barber who told me that he is at risk of losing his business and his home to avoid getting an illness that would likely cause him to experience mild symptoms for 2 weeks (he is not in an at-risk group). Not a terrible point ….

I was on a conference call earlier today. I am getting full pay to stay home. The whole company is. Our new ownership seems to have compassion.

Not a terrible point …. I hear you. Last week I went to my haircut appointment and was just pulling in the parking lot when she called me. Said they had a customer in the chair who told them her husband was in quarantine... They had to close and clean the whole shop and I never got my haircut. People are stupid, which is part of the problem here. Subsequently, the NJ Governor ordered all salons closed. It's really going to get tough if this goes on for more than a few weeks.

I hope this ends within the next few weeks. I can tell just by this. I am not going to handle retirement well.

Seeing people out in public not following orders is certainly not helping matters. I live in SoCal and there were hundreds of people at the Santa Monica Beach this weekend alone. The longer people don't comply, the longer this stuff is going to last. Anyways, Bradberry said something very interesting about how he is working out at home. He said that he had to order some gym supplies so that he can workout at home. This is his first big time payday, so he clearly doesn't have what he needs at home as of yet in regards to getting his workouts in.

I don't think you can make any decision based on anything but the damage that will be done to the population. If they abandon efforts to stop this we are gonna have more serious issues then the economy. I'm dying here but I want to have the holidays with all my family members. If it is gonna take another week month whatever they need to have a plan and stick to it. people are not getting slightly ill look at Italy and China unless this is controlled we will pay worse price later.

I wish these people would just lock it down for three weeks it would be much quicker. This is a result of weak leader ship they need to shut it down and enforce it these games need to be stopped the more people don't listen the longer this will be.

Not a terrible point …. Unfortunately, the only country that has not taken this macro level approach is South Korea, mostly because they employed rigorous testing and contact tracing and did it early. If you don't have enough tests you really can't do that, and if you can't pinpoint, your only chance to stop something like this from becoming so widespread is everyone participating in serious social distancing. Everyone has to do it because we can't be that specific. Politics aside because I'm not sure everyone here is a fan of the New York Times, but this is a great read detailing what they did. All of it would have been possible for sophisticated nations: www.nytimes.com/2020/03/23/world/asia/coronavirus-south-korea-flatten-curve.html?auth=linked-google I love the James Bradberry signing.

This is a result of weak leader ship they need to shut it down and enforce it these games need to be stopped the more people don't listen the longer this will be. Unfortunately it is not as simple as lock it down for 3 weeks. They have tried it in Italy and were warned ahead of time it's not that easy. You can be sick for 2 weeks with this, so if you are locked in a house with someone that has it and you don't catch it right away you can catch it 2 weeks in and still be sick when it's lifted. Also people can catch it after already having it so in theory you can pass it all around the house and everyone can have it when it's lifted. In addition to that a total "true" lockdown where no one leaves their house is not possible, you will come in contact with people.
What people need to do is not be stupid and clean their damn hands, not touch their face and stay home when sick...just like with the regular flue. Like it was mentioned at some point the damage to the world wide economy will be a greater risk than the sickness. They better start pumping out those stimulus checks. I wish they would make people spend it though. They should give out gift cards for online shopping that expire in a week or two weeks lol.

I will tell you what the problem is there are carriers that don't know they have it . I don't think in 15 days you can just say OK were good all parks bars restaurants open the whole country will be sick it will be a disaster beyond anything we have seen before. I think they need to be prepared to keep these measures in place for at least 3 to 5 weeks. Millions of people whit auto immune diseases will be at risk. they need to do more then 15 days of half measures. In the end our government failed us they knew about it when the shit hit the fan they bailed on the market and our leader is in the hotel business he stands to gain the most if everything goes back to normal. I would rather talk football @#$% these Aholes not a fan of politicians.

The need for spring break tourism is circumventing logic. They shut all the beaches. Boat ramps this week. That really ticked me off that these kids had no regard for human life, whats worse those kids have pretty much departed back to there home states to spread what ever they passed to each other here. they need to really stick with this for a while and get more testing going before they try to get back to normal.
