On Trump and the economy I am somewhat surprised he has such a big lead over Biden on the issue. Down to worry over Biden personally, or fears of what the more radical Democrats want, or just belief (justified or not) that Trump really is decent on that front?
It's the FIFA dates and UEFA claiming four midweeks for the L16 of the Champions League that's the problem, not our football calendar.
An outbreak of Covid at a mask factory! You couldn't make it up!
Charity Shield being abolished seems a bit unnecessary though. Sure its a meaningless trophy but its an interesting start to the season.

As I said few sportsmen are professional standard at more than one sport.
Ok, off to birthday celebrations with the memsahib. Social distancing will certainly NOT be observed.
Toodle pip.
We need more data differentiation as to student and non-student infection.
Sounds like a Doctor Who villain, all fear the dicators.
Sadly it sohws correctly on the iplayer.
You can't "end a pandemic". It's a storm which must be endured - and the damage mitigated, in various ways.
What is really wrong with your point is that we are talking about career choices made by the very young, so established sportsmen moonlighting at something else are kinda not relevant.
The truly intriguing geniuses are those who excel in two very different areas.
A classic example is Sir John Vanbrugh. A famous architect AND playwright. Wtf

Still I see you can't disagree with the point I made.
Don't you think its a bit disappointing that Joe Biden is the best that the Democrats can come up with ?
Even at his peak Biden was viewed far behind the likes of Clinton, Gore, Dukakis and Gephardt.
Pennsylvania is no longer the "tipping point" state. It's now Wisconsin.

Curate's egg for me.
Reduction to 18 good, EFL Cup, Charity Shield gone good. Too much football.
Funding for EFL good.
Disappointed they didn't go for fewer teams in lower divisions. 20 is plenty. Midweek league two games are a money loser.
There are far too many professional clubs. This does not mean they should go bust, but a lot of them should go part time to be financially viable.
I would merge League 2 and National League and make them a semi pro North and South. Ludicrous that Hartlepool play Dover in league football.
However, overall, this is a big club, more money for us proposal, with the aim of protecting the oligarchy.
Phil Neville was apparently a fine cricketer and Ian Botham could have been a rugged central defender (though not of international class).
How many more ? A few certainly.
And that's what I said to begin with.
I was taken in by the Sleepy Joe notion created by Trump. The presentation of Biden's speeches (presumably written by speech writers- with a nod to Neil Kinnock!) are OK. He is no Obama or Bill Clinton, but he can hold his own.

Some quirky new sports include speedgolf - which involves adding the time it takes to get around a golf course with your golf score and the lowest combined wins - I actually entered an event of this !
and of course the strange chessboxing - do one round of chess , then one round of boxing , alternate until either a knock out or checkmate.
Modern Pentathlon ,Biathlon,Decathlon and Heptathlon have also always interested me as did superstars as a kid. I like the all rounder !
Also Daley Thompson (not content with being good at 10 events) also played football for Mansfield for a couple of appearances i think
And, yes, I know why the League Cup came about, but it fills a decent role I think these days.
If you mean essentially eradicated from a country that is different.
I think most people in this country would be delighted if following a vaccine Covid19 were eliminated from the UK, even if it was still present in the Democratic Republic of Congo so wasn't officially completely eradicated.
Basically he's a clapped out politico overdue for retirement.
Do the Democrats not have a single Governor who is 40-60, sensible, competent ?
That, to me, is the most disappointing aspect.
Dennis Compton. Middlesex and Arsenal. The perfect career.
Goethe was a scientist as well.
Is this really a bug? It's insane. We spent £12bn as a nation on this crap.

Ridiculous
Possibly by 2024 things will be looking brighter for President Harris though.
It is criminally shocking and shows that we are being lead through this covid -19 year by people who have no idea what they are doing.

Nonetheless, for £12bn you would expect it to be as good as Korea's. It ain't.
Data can only be used for the purpose that it was originally given for.
He was crap at the debate, it is just he was up against somebody who came across even worse.
English hospital deaths for w/e 12/03/20 were 34.
English hospital deaths for w/e 04/09/20 were 34 - the point where they started increasing again.
Now compare the following weeks:
w/e 12/03/20 34 deaths
w/e 19/03/20 284 deaths
w/e 26/03/20 1,308 deaths
w/e 02/04/20 3,512 deaths
w/e 09/04/20 5,449 deaths
w/e 04/09/20 34 deaths
w/e 11/09/20 56 deaths
w/e 18/09/20 96 deaths
w/e 25/09/20 154 deaths
w/e 02/10/20 261 deaths
w/e 09/10/20 will likely be around 325 deaths.
Its easy to forget how quickly events happened in March.
Although it’s positively Freudian given Biden’s increasing incoherence, ‘I don’t think anyone on team Biden won’t forget health care during the pandemic’ is I suspect not quite what you meant to say...
Bet the club owners are regretting not accepting the biosecure bubble idea instead of spending $100m on daily testing.
It is also planned that, as well as the 'big six', ever-present league member Everton, West Ham United and Southampton - ninth and 11th respectively in the list of clubs who have featured in the most Premier League seasons - would be granted special status.
In the Premier League's view, a number of the individual proposals in the plan published today could have a damaging impact on the whole game and we are disappointed to see that Rick Parry, Chair of the EFL, has given his on-the-record support.
That's a pretty damning statement.
"How closely linked are lockdown and Brexit? | The Spectator
Patrick West
Once upon a time, a long time ago, this country was consumed by the matter of Brexit. Everywhere you turned, in every medium, even among friends and colleagues, you couldn't get away from the subject: everyone was talking about Brexit. We were obsessed by it. From 2016 to 2019 there was no escape.
All of this changed this year. With the pandemic, the rancorous matter of Brexit vanished, or at least stopped becoming the emotive, divisive matter of primary concern. It has been relegated to a pedestrian news story about trading rights. In the year of the coronavirus and all its horrors, paranoia and despair, Brexit has become a sideshow. Right?
Wrong. While the clamorous conflict between Leavers and Remainers has ostensibly ceased, in our collective subconscious the same cleavage in our society remains – only the subject matter has changed. As you may have concluded from newspapers and your social media feed, Remainer and Leave camps have merely metamorphosed into pro-lockdown and anti-lockdown tribes."

As I say 13 people have played both cricket and football for England. CB Fry also held the world long jump record.
Fernand is a Florida specialist
I would have thought the closest thing to a modern sportsman who excelled in multiple disciplines would be AB de Villiers, but Kyle Edmund and the Neville brothers both played under-19 cricket.
Among women, of course, Ellyse Perry is something of a dazzling exception but I think she’s given up football now.
Nadal has taken the first set 6-0 vs Djokovic in the French Open final.
