Restrictions in Santa Clara may force 49ers to practice/play elsewhere (No politics)

This is so far beyond stupid it's incredible. They literally test every single day. Wildly irrational move. They aren't even a demographic that is very effected. These health departments have way too much power. They are unelected, accountable to nobody, make arbitrary and capricious rulings, indefinitely and with no end limit. There needs to be a check and balance on these people. Cases aren't even cases anyway if you understand what it measures and how they are counting. And the inherent flaws in the test itself with regards to this.

I think the SF Giants stadium or Oakland Coliseum will be the first options. Any college stadiums outside of santa clara county are options, too. And this isn't just a 49ers vs santa clara, thing. The Sharks will be affected by this, as well.

Yeah probably so.

Well, at least we are allowed to have QBs https://sports.yahoo.com/broncos-saints-qb-covid-19-driskel-rypien-lock-bortles-contact-tracing-sunday-nfl-232337909.html

Yea, I see public health officials scare mongering about CASES! but you'd have to rely solely on these pronouncements to even know something is going on at this point.

Cause we're in a nation wide pandemic with 250k plus Americans dead, a serious virus, those states have GOP leaders who are morons and don't care about the safety of the people.

Yeah, the California lockdowns sure helped.

Love your posts usually AB, especially about cap related issues. This one, and a couple others though are a stretch at best. Scientifically speaking, there is evidence that viruses have existed longer than life as we know it. Which absolutely transcends politics. I mean the vast majority of the world is anti GOP, meaning socialist and communist. And the death rates are what they are. And they aren't nothing, so it's sad for sure when anyone dies. Especially when it's premature given the potential life outcome. I know you posted your family, possibly your mother if I remember correctly, may have been infected. And that's terrible and I obviously wish you and your family the best. But there is absolutely zero such thing as political virus control outside of a real vaccine like we saw with small pox. No quarantine or social distancing has ever cured a virus, EVER. Not one single time for one single virus. Some come and go. Some are more deadly than others. And mathematically, this one is a little more severe than some but not a brand new small pox or plague. The CDC and WHO have both independently verified this with numbers outlining who actually succumbs to the virus with obvious bell curve outliers. Ive watched both types of political governments fail to curb the spread and deaths from this because it's impossible. Literally. You cannot govern your way out of a virus unless that includes a legitimate cure. Period. North Korea is one of the most isolated places on planet earth and they are unable to govern their way out of the virus. They just locked down the capital and executed untold amounts of people to control it but that's obviously a knee jerk reaction. It's already there and taking hold. You really think the virus is caring if a dem government implements controls versus a gop one? No. And both have the same results. The virus spreads. Period. And math shows some are worse than others, and not in your view points favor. I'm an independent purely on politics. Both sides are extreme and suck. Please stop acting like one side is to blame or one side has a real answer other than a useless lockdown that will destroy more lives than a virus. I know more people out of work and suicidal than before than virus hit. They would gladly risk death to feed their family. Because death is two options they have now. One more statistically relevant than the other given the current climate. You love math. Do the homework. How many people die of covid? How many people die when you live in a country and can't afford food or shelter or heat or water? COVID is sad. No doubt. But it's not even an honorable mention in the last 10 years of why and how people around the world have died. Needlessly. It's more natural for a virus to kill someone than it is for them to die of thirst or hunger when we literally have enough as a species to stop both from happening.

Seen this coming from a mile away. Santa Clara hates the Niners so I knew they'd make it as hard as possible for the Niners to play. The Niners will probably be the last team allowed to play with fans depending on how long this goes on.

Why do they hate the 49ers?

Yes, way worse than 1939 through 1945.

lol your ignorance to facts and science are baffling

No spikes in the virus in Missouri, eh?

At any rate, I get it, but the 49ers don't allows fans and this isn't some high school game. This is what they literally do for a living. Worse case scenario, we forfeit every remaining game (I know the restriction only affects home games) and we get fast tracked to 4-12. We still won't catch the Jets, but maybe we catch the Giants.

Just what we needed. Another lockdown Covid thread. We don't have enough of that.

Unbelievable crap. Every other place in the whole country can do it. They literally test these guys every single day. They are among the safest and most cared for in the world. SC is such a joke. Or they are doing it on purpose because of the lawsuits.

We may as well forfeit. Why risk player safety at this point making them jump through hoops to play

Jed is too insecure to do that

I mean, the stadium literally doesn't exist anymore.

I think they should lock all of California down so that all of the business have to close their door and move, the people die from suicide due to the depression of being stuck inside, and so the planet can heal in that area. (High sarcasm)

Seriously, this one of the problems with liberal leadership, all heart, no brain.
