I wonder how much of the problems with Duncan's treatment stem from him being a layperson whereas the two Atlanta patients were doctors...

You aren't alone! Texas, La Tech, Indiana, and UAB players and fans agree.

Good thing, since it would probably be intercepted.

Partial list of worlds most dangerous places (in no particular order) 1. Between mother bear and her cub 2. Polar ice cap 3. Swimming next to a seal colony 4. Between a politician and a tv camera 5. On a low lying barrier island with a Cat 5 hurricane bearing down

A person infected with Ebola can’t spread the disease until symptoms appear The time from exposure to when signs or symptoms of the disease appear (the incubation period) is 2 to 21 days, but the average time is 8 to 10 days. Signs of Ebola include fever (higher than 101.5°F) and symptoms like severe headache, muscle pain, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, or unexplained bleeding or bruising. (source: http://www.cdc.gov/vhf/ebola/pdf/what-need-to-know-ebola.pdf) Diagnosing Ebola in an person who has been infected for only a few days is difficult, because the early symptoms, such as fever, are nonspecific to Ebola infection and are seen often in patients with more commonly occurring diseases, such as malaria and typhoid fever. (source: http://www.cdc.gov/vhf/ebola/diagnosis/index.html) They go onto list specific tests that are available for use. So, only after the onset of symptoms can they test you for Ebola. I said something earlier about a 7-21 day window. Looks like I was wrong, it's 2-21 days.

Madness? THIS IS DENTON! Who kicks Benford into the hole? It won't be RV...

This part for the win.

I get the ire directed at RV, for as much good as he's done he's done enough bad to deserve it. Mac's coach speak and candor can be a bit of a beating, but I don't think that it's time to kick him to the curb. Also, in before the lock.

I think it's a 7-21 day window. You may develop an infection before 21 days. 21 days after exposure and you are still asymptomatic and you are clear.

I would say yes. He was all-conference last year at guard. He doesn't look good at tackle and the rest of the line isn't playing well enough to justify him playing out of position any longer.

Before the Ben Gooding roast continues, he isn't wrong about safety valves. There is a bit of conventional wisdom that a good TE is a rookie/freshman QBs best friend. I'm surprised that an avowed old school guy like TFLF hasn't been jumping up and down about how you need to get inexperienced QBs easy, quick throws to build confidence and allow him to work into the game at the new level. The need for safety valve routes/passes is even greater if your O-line isn't doing a great job keeping your QB clean.

Fixed. I think Mac can turn this thing around, but all of the others can go pound the pavement for new jobs as far as I am concerned.

That attitude is sure to fill the stadium on game days...but it is easier than actually fixing the problems so I guess we know where you fall on the do the easy wrong thing/hard right thing scale.

Preliminary test indicates hospital worker in Dallas has been infected with Ebola. CDC is testing to confirm diagnosis. The healthcare worker hasn't been identified and supposedly followed all protocols while caring for Duncan. http://www.nbcdfw.com/news/national-international/Texas-Health-Care-Worker-Tests-Positive-for-Ebola-Hospital-278932951.html

I thought Colorado was doing a bit... double ouch

Only if Dodge was still on the sideline...

I get where you are coming from, but the power structure in football and the greater access to post season success in basketball makes that a view that is about 30-40 years too old fashioned...

It sure was exciting to the Blazers faithful...

Sorry, but we have bigger Benfords to fry.

Oh, I thought maybe you meant to post this on the UAB board since their stands are so empty...

Remind me how you defended Greer on all of the stuff that wasn't his fault too...

So, what happen IF (a very big if, which is why I capitalized it) Greer goes in and leads the team on a couple of nice touchdown drives?

Harry, did you mean Todd Dodge or touchdown?

They just panned around about 1/3 of the stadium. I don't think crowd noise is a determining factor...

The production of this game is pretty bad. Commentators aren't good, they put up a graphic of the standings and didn't bother to notice that Middle wasn't undefeated in conference play...
