Last 10 seconds are so painful to watch with everybody just standing there not knowing what to do. Was the start of the Jankovirus epidemic at SMU.
Peruna is my mascot!

I can’t watch it. Too painful. I have never gone to an SMU game with such confidence and high hopes only to have them crushed so badly. It still hurts.
Long live Inez Perez!

Here in DC area, its like a ghost town except for the people out jogging and walking their fearless dogs. People are social distancing. Schools are closed until summer school. 303 out of 604 cases in Virginia are in Northern Virginia. Maryland has 774 cases with 356 in DC suburbs. DC has 267 cases. So, in the DC area there are a total of 926 cases.
UNC better keep that Ram away from Peruna

https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/index.htmPay attention to that every week. Everyone who goes in with flu like symptoms is getting a flu test and a corona test. You can see flu going down significantly, combo of the natural seasonal cycle (potentially weather based) and social distancing. But ILI are skyrocketing, very abnormal this time of year, and that is Corona. Hopefully, Corona tracks the flu seasonality, but it doesn't look good so far. This site will be the first indication when/if it starts declining according to flu activity.
