He agreed TSSAA now has a mess on their hands. These kids should be able to transfer out and play immediately! I don’t won’t to get political, but I hope this opens folks eyes for those that voted for Cooper. I hope parents protest over this! Disagree unless they have a valid change of address.

I voted for Cooper and he has done nothing to have me regret my decision. I would rather the government operate under an abundance of caution than act like nothing is wrong, which is the stance the state and federal government has taken. I want the kids to play as much as anyone but it's not just the kids this government is responsible for. As far as the issue of transferring, if they want to move or apply for an hardship, I would be for it. But to give kids ability to transfer wherever without going through the process would be an arms race with programs trying to upgrade their talent level, never mind the fact that incorporating into a program at this point is going to be hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The numbers have by percentage remained low for all these months already, would the active cases have to get to zero? And if the numbers don't hit whatever point that is for two, three years, or maybe never, what then? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mondo44 Posted August 25, 2020 Report Share Posted August 25, 2020 In the age range 11-20 there was been 1 death in the state out of 17;000 positive cases. That would mean what 100,000 tests? Sounds pretty safe to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that, if the community and it's leadership choose to shut down schools and sports, then unfortunately the kids should have to as well. Each of us has a choice where we decide to live and raise our families and with choice comes consequence, either good or bad. I hope Mr. Cooper is making the right decision, because this decision will be felt for years to come. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't agree with everything they've done, but the cases are down bc the measures they adopted have become more widely accepted statewide. At this point, there isn't a vaccine and they don't really have a treatment that is a proven success across the board. If governments treated this virus with urgency in the spring, we wouldn't be having this discussion now If it were up to me, I would let the schools play as long as they adopt the guidelines laid out by the MPHD. If they do, it is my hope that is not just football that's extended that courtesy , but all sports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidelinehustler Posted August 25, 2020 Report Share Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) You can have every square inch of Davidson County for my part. Ditto for Shelby County. I’m glad I live in God’s country and a red county with some reason and common sense. Edited August 25, 2020 by Sidelinehustler 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t say anything about the President. He didn’t make the decision in each individual county. It’s called federalism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, since you edited, on the vast majority of issues the Republican platform screams common sense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
