They apparently are doing a great job of that at UCSF where a revolutionary nasal spray/inhaler is killing Covid and is projected as an OVER THE COUNTER drug. Also Dr. Matthay is conducting a stem cell study that may be effective in fighting the virus once a person is infected.
Perhaps one of the furloughed football players will have a genius moment because he has time to think abstractly without getting his head crushed daily.
Also high time for the uber rich NFL owners to spend a bit of cash and create a minor league. The Duluth’s, Fargo’s, Fresno’s and Waco’s of this country will embrace this level of football. To hell with the NCAA.
Minor leagues would serve a previous few. And college sports for some kids is an inducement to higher education. Without that carrot, I would if this wouldn’t be a rather large net loss.
Great on UCSF. Not sure they had much of an athletic program. :) So I don’t really get the connection.
It’s easy to crush the NCAA. They deserve it. But ending college sports is not the answer.
