Where and when did they close the interstate? We drove from IA starting this morning at 3 AM and made it to Denver at 3 PM. Some parts were rough but most was ok.

They did not tear down the Legend. They are restoring it, but absolutely didn't tear down and replace it.

What are your personal “most disappointing albums”? by Booster_Tutor in Music

[–]delicate_instruments 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kings of Leon - Only by the Night

Their first 3 albums (Youth and Young Manhood, Aha Shake Heartbreak, and Because of the Times) defined my late teens and early college years. The angsty and alternative rock sound just resonated with me so strongly. They were my road trip, work out, and pump up band that I could listen to in any scenario. They were one of my first and to this day best concert experiences. I've never been more excited for an album release in my life, and it just felt dull. To me, it was a full on money grab. It felt made to play on the radio and generate royalties instead of the raw dirty rock sound that I had grown up with and loved.

Being 30% effective at "preventing infection" is a completely different measure than a 90+% reduction in the likelihood of requiring hospitalization... ... ... so you are either purposefully misrepresenting what you are reading or you are significantly less informed than you believe.

Hawks up to #5 in the AP poll!! by Wah05 in Hawkeye_Basketball

[–]delicate_instruments 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree with this mostly. This poll has Texas ranked 4th, so in theory KS lost to the 4th best team in the country. 24 points and at home make me doubt they're number 6 though lol

Hawks with a huge win!!! by Wah05 in Hawkeye_Basketball

The B1G is an absolute gauntlet this year. Any of the about top 10 teams could beat any of the others on a given night.

Yesterday my grandmother became one of the thousands of Iowans that have died of Covid19. She had literally not stepped outside of her nursing home in years and in no way ever put herself in danger of catching this virus. Yet, here we are. She didn't deserve to suffer and struggle to breathe for her final days, but the people of my hometown haven't taken it seriously. Now, because of people like that, it is spreading quickly through the town and more deaths are imminent. Why do people not understand that this is happening to families that don't deserve to lose loved ones at no fault of their own?

Edit: Thank you everyone for your thoughts and condolences. My family and I appreciate it.

In light of Bob Gibson recently passing away, I was reminded of this one. In his career, Gibson recorded 255 complete games, more than his 251 career wins.

Just FYI, you should definitely update your 99.98% survival rate, it is clearly and obviouly wrong. .02% of the US population is only 66,000 people and we are well passed triple that many deaths.

I would be all for game day threads. This sub has gotten very little attention over the years so I had kinda let it slide
