Vance McDonald.....
And he was "sick" on Friday and played on Sunday. I hope the Steelers get in trouble for this.

Yeah right! I feel certain he was tested a bunch of times before Sunday.Originally Posted by Bluecoat96
After reading my post, I realized that I apparently can't type. I meant to say that I hope they DON'T get in trouble. Goodness. That's what happens when you have screaming kids running around at your house when you're posting online.

I hear you.
I have been told that the test is only 70% accurate. If true, that means it is basically nearly useless as a guide. It may also be why you need multiple passing tests in these cases.
Vance McDonald has a cough e I e i o
I'm surprised. I thought he would drop it rather than catch it.
We are going to miss that one catch for 4 yards a game.
Could miss His blocking as he’s been going a very good job at it.

I know that Chris Carter tells the story of being so ill that he was on an IV while flying to a game. But, that was a different time. Allowing Vance McDonald to board the team plane (with circulated air) risks having several Steelers players excluded from future games... not to mention possible fines for allowing him to play against another team.
Biden won, COVID19 will be gone before the Superbowl, no worries.

the test is the test tho ... This is a result of the Ratbirds game I am rather certain and nothing happened there .... their player missed practice sick and tested clean played infected us and then tested pos...
any such actions vs us would have to result in same actions vs them I would think ....
Kenny Pickett is who I though he was .. Eagles didn't value him either , now he is a Stain at the Mistake by the Lake 3 teams in 4 years more of a shooting star than a superstar
Oh, indeed. I fault both teams for being irresponsible. Whether you believe in COVID or not (I’m not trying to tangent towards that discussion), the rules for this NFL particular season are in place.
Old NFL: play with an IV on the sidelines
New NFL: don’t you dare sneeze
sadly the bold is so true ...Oh, indeed. I fault both teams for being irresponsible. Whether you believe in COVID or not (I’m not trying to tangent towards that discussion

but yes , lets not take this down a rabbit hole on the covid real / covid bs discussion .... it is what it is regardless of your feelings on it we are all feeling the effects of its existence /non existence regardless ...

Ask Tom Izzo.
With all the partying in the streets in the major cities, the amount of cases will explode. I wouldn't be surprised to see a shortened season. efffffff
Same thing could’ve happened to Vance. He was sick, he tested negative, he played and now he tested positive.

So, where are we at on this so far? I haven’t read anything more, but I have been so busy at work I honestly haven’t had the time recently.
Please restrict the political posts to the Soapbox subforum. Thanks.
Anyone notice how that in the NFL players only test positive with enough time to test negative again and get the games played? Players also seem to never have critical close contacts that get out either. In general...now McDonald and Ben might be different...
Not trying to make this a soapbox thing or a thing about viruses science. Just saying that look at say the Big10 and then look at the NFL. In the Big10 the patterns that teams are reporting are much more like what one would expect with an illness. In the NFL...the patterns or lack thereof are surprising.
Long story short...with ALL the money on the table in the NFL...I suspect that teams are playing fast and loose with this and the league is letting it go. Do I particularly care? No. These are grown men. They should all know what they are getting into. College -- different story. What's my point? I think the NFL is playing with fire and I hope they and no one involved gets burned BUT I also won't be shocked to learn that this eventually all blows up in their face.
Well, at least we have good news now. Our guys on the Covid list, besides McDonald, can play.
That gives me a lot confidence in this game now
