How would you be right about deaths? The world has shutdown, if the death total isn't that high it will be because of that.

Not because the severity of the virus wasn't a big deal. Do we really need to go back and look at threads over the last month?

You told Mobdeeper 3 weeks ago to relax, wash his hands and this will be over in a month. The ship has just sailed.

What you should do is admit you got caught up in the political bickering of all this, enjoyed the whole "haha doom and gloomers" shtick and couldn't see the forest from the trees as to what was really going on.

But if you can't do that and think there is still some wiggle room for you to be "right" then so be it.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I've maintained since Day 1 I believe this virus situation is real but overhyped by the media. Been real consistent all day long with that stance.

I believe both things are correct.

If you can find where I said this thing would be over in a month, feel free. I don't believe I've ever said this at all. Are you just making this up?

This isn't true, it is just a way for you to downplay how wrong you were.

But even if, anyone who was more focused on how "overhyped by the media" this was vs the actual issue taking place couldn't see the forest from the trees anyway.

And I'm not looking that up as it relates to Mobdeeper, you post way too much for me to find it.

Now back to the good stuff, what do you expect to be "right" about that I am also wrong about?

What is the end result where you are proven correct in your assertions based on the last month of your posting?

Pats, I don't even really know how to answer your question and I don't even care if I'm right or wrong about anything to be honest with you.

How can we logically define an answer?

1) Do I believe the media overhyped this situation? Personal opinion.

2) Did Trump's closure of flights from China help slow this thing down? I assume so but I'd have to look at the data. Don't know.

3) Is every person dying in American dying as a direct result of COVID-19? Don't know.

4) What would've happened had we done nothing? Would've been way worse.

5) What would've happened had we quarantined the elderly and people with pre-existing conditions while the rest of us worked? Don't know.

6) Will the outcome of a temporary crash in the marked and subsequent downturn on our world economy have a lasting impact? I assume so but don't know.

7) Would it have been better to keep the economy humming while quarantining the elderly and people with pre-existing conditions? I don't know.

I don't know PatsFan1283.

shutting the world down won't be the only reason the death toll will be lower... It will be far lower because of these worst case scenarios these so called experts were pre forecasting for us to panic over

Ok, question my integrity again please. I've been firm. Overhyped by media but not a hoax. Did I say we should go to work? Yes I did and if we had quarantined the elderly and people with pre-existing conditions, I'm not sure you can say that was still a bad course of action. I don't know.

And you aren't looking it up because it isn't true.

"Projecting 100k deaths from this is like projecting 324 homeruns because a player hits hits 2 on opening day"

Does this sound like someone that is humbled by the brevity of the situation and just searching for answers by discussing and advancing content on the subject? No, it is an entirely different tone and disposition.

You've pivoted because time did its thing and the whole "its the flu bro" shtick ran its course.

Yeah, can I get a freeroll on that? How much?

You and Mobdeeper have back and forths in like 10 threads every single day, it would be very difficult to find.

So tell me directly, are you calling me a liar and telling me I'm changing my course now from when this thing started?

Please be clear.

Yeah, you're moving the goal posts because you downplayed the severity of the issue. There are several posts that show this. I just hit 2 buttons and found the post from the night the NBA shutdown, you thought it was the craziest thing ever. Pretty much every health professional in the world would tell you a stadium filled with 10-20k people during this pandemic is not doable.

Do you still believe you were correct in your outage of this?

And I could find many other examples, we're on a message board man. This isn't some carnival barker on twitter who can say anything he/she wants because their biz model is to get 50% of people to despise them and 50% of people to agree with them.

I don't lie man. Best of luck and I'll place you on ignore from here on out.

Lol, can't stand up to a shred of someone actually challenging you and questioning your posts. Why did he ignore his little brilliant homerun analogy from a few days ago?

Why did he ignore his incredulous tone about the NBA shutting down? Or about Washington quarantining (where this virus is a mess no less)

Why did he ignore me asking for a freeroll and saying I'd be glad to find the exchange where he told Mobdeeper it'll be over in a month (around 3 weeks ago)


For someone who LOVES going back and forth with posters, who does this day in and day out, to not be able to stand up to even 1 page of questioning from me yet asks Mobdeeper why he calls him a racist 50 times a month (why don't you put him on ignore? because it is easy and you love those simplistic back and forths) Me questioning all of your content and saying all you have to do is admit you were wrong is just too challenging.

Do I think Enfuego's intention is to lie? No, he just lacks objectivity, tries to come in too hot, this isn't really the format for that (social media way better for that type of carnival barking) and then twists himself in a knot and by the time he is done, most people just say whatever, that is him being him. It isn't necessarily lying, it is just being intellectually disingenuous, whether intentional or not.

Which is fine, this is all low stakes but it is what it is.
