Most people where I live going into gas stations aren't masked. Of course, most people where I live aren't wearing masks anywhere. In larger cities I've visited recently, a lot of people have been masked. In smaller towns like the one I live in, many people just aren't doing it.

I'm hoping the remnants finally bring some rain to my area. It's been 16 days since it rained here.

Deleted: please help us out. That was blatantly political -blue

They were so tired from counting that high they needed to rest a bit today? Three-digit numbers are big to Kentuckians.

I meant that even though I saw more people than I could ever remember wearing masks at this Wal-Mart, the vast majority still didn't have them.

Went to Wal-Mart today for a good laugh, since the mask mandate takes effect tomorrow. You would have thought the blizzard of the century was coming. Scads and scads of people without masks pushing overflowing carts, obviously hoping they won't have to go grocery shopping again in the foreseeable future. The saddest part was, I still saw more masks than I can ever remember seeing there.

Is there anything happening in the world that our fanbase collectively could look at and not think "this could negatively affect recruiting?" Good lord.

These numbers are just mind-boggling. I remember back in April thinking 39K was outrageously high. Texas and Florida are combining for about 20,000 per day the last few days. About a month ago, we had days with fewer than 20,000 for the whole country.

Did you read my post past the word job? They hired his wife first, and then made their pitch to him. It's not a case of a coach requesting a job for his wife.

Bush-league move by Whitko to offer Chris Benedict's wife a job at their new career academy so he would be inclined to follow. Sorry, bitter Bluffton grad here.

Bluffton Street Fair in September cancelled. The rednecks who flock to that annual grease fire are already losing their minds.

Yeah, starting to get more of a Paul George vibe with him after this, and I hate that.

People whining about having to wear a mask are more annoying than wearing the mask itself.

Would libraries be a breeding ground for Covid? I ask because the library where I live still isn't letting anyone in except for a very small area near the entrance. I can't think of one time in my life where I got sick and blamed it on a trip to the library.

This goes back to a very basic rule I learned at a young age: when you're a guest in someone else's house, you play by their rules. Don't like their rules? Don't visit their house. In this case, Costco asks its customers to wear a mask. If you want to shop at this store, then wear a f*cking mask. It's not hard. Or, shop at a different store that doesn't require masks. But in this day and age, I suppose it's much easier to make a video of yourself acting like a tough guy and trying to sound like some sort of rebel with phrases like "it's a free country" and "I'm not a sheep." Which, I agree with him, he's not a sheep; he's a mentally retarded mule.

Before any of this started, I always used to wonder what happened when people would abruptly disappear, like maybe they died or went to prison. I've always wondered what became of kylehornsbyrules. Probably doing 7-10 for something or other.

No, I'm saying he responded to a comparison to Garza by humbly saying he's not on Garza's level...and he's not.

A chance to be one of the best players in the country again. Playing on a team that could win the Big Ten and make a deep run. A chance to make the NBA scouts start noticing him. Or he could go to Europe and disappear. Jeff Goodman and Andy Katz both think he comes back. It's not as outlandish as some of our fans want to believe.

I interpreted that response as him saying "I'm not THAT good," not as a reference to how long he'd be in school. On a side note, I find it hilarious how many IU fans are desperately hoping Garza doesn't come back next season.

I had to go to Walmart the other day, and it was ridiculous. People everywhere in large groups having chatty conversations. I had to ask several people (as politely as I could) to please step aside so I could get what I needed off a shelf. Checkout lines were 5-6 deep, including self-checkout, with no social distancing. The youth baseball league where I live was cancelled this summer. Some of the parents were so upset, they protested and pestered the league president until he finally stepped down out of frustration. Someone else took over, and these people are trying to get the kids on the field now. Not like, later this summer, which I would fully support; they want the kids on the field now. I really, really don't want to see high school football get cancelled because we re-opened everything too soon and had an outbreak during the summer.

For the last 5 or 6 years, I've joked that Indiana's four seasons are summer, almost winter, winter, and still winter.

I've probably unfollowed more people on Facebook in the last few weeks than I have in the last 12 years. It's absolutely ridiculous how much political fiction and photoshopped images are getting passed around.

It irritates me to no end that the hillbilly capital of the world is managing this better than we are. And I hate how that statement can apply to basketball, too. 🤮

My best guess is people in Pakistan probably don't travel to other countries very often, if ever. That would significantly decrease the chances of someone bringing the virus into the country.
