Day 257

  • "Hand of God" rigging or no, Diego Maradona was a legend in soccer.  His name was added to the list of those who have passed in 2020.  He was 60 years old.  Heart attack weeks after brain surgery.
  • Oklahoma-West Virginia is off for this weekend due to positives in the Sooner program.
  • There will be no third game on Thursday in the NFL.  Ravens-Steelers is now Sunday due to positive tests in the Baltimore organization, and the Steelers are NOT PLEASED.  Juju Smith-Schuster points out that they fucked with the bye week because of the other team involved, and now they lose Thanksgiving night for the same reason.
  • This is the 13th NFL game to be moved or switched due to the coronavirus.  You think it was still a good idea to play this season without a bubble?    
  • Nick Saban of Alabama is positive for the virus as well.  This is a second positive test almost six weeks apart -- with several negative tests in between.  The Iron Bowl with Auburn is this weekend.  No real surprise.  The University of Alabama was one of the first colleges to report a major outbreak.     
  • DeForest Buckner of the Colts is on the COVID Reserve List.
  • Khambrail Winters, a defensive back of Texas State University, has been shot and killed as a result of a drug deal -- no word yet on whether Winters was in on the deal or whether he was a witness to be eliminated when the deal went bad.
  • Ed Murray, Bill's brother, has passed of unknown causes.  Ed was the one who got the Murray family into golf.  So that not only inspired Caddyshack, but the often-riotous trips through the Bob Hope Desert Classic Bill was always classic for.
