    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Trump will spin it that his 30 odd claims/cases/complaints makes him a bigger man than Biden (and some rednecks will accept it) :)

    What's everyone watching while on 'lockdown'?

    Rewatched Life on Mars over the weekend. Still a good watch.

    What's everyone watching while on 'lockdown'?

    my problem with After Life was so much of the material was rehashes of his podcast material and other stuff he's done. Great story idea and the original bits were good.

    cynic in me thinks some will revisit it as increase above usual numbers of deaths per annum. eg" well those with serious underlying conditions were going to die some time in 2020 anyway". With some countries recording that way already some will try to justify things by "dumbing down the...

    Apparently not. My neighbour spent 12 years working in Munich hospitals and is touch with former colleagues. Generally the underlying condition is recorded as the cause of death there. (virus apparently seen as speeding up the process, not the cause). Also Germany not generally testing after...

    one of the accusations pointed at Russia was the comparatively large numbers of deaths (yr on yr) attributed to pneumonia in Moscow in December and January.

    If this is for me then answer is no. One of the worst testing records in Europe. Those that die on ventilator counted. Home deaths, non-hospital deaths not included. Don't have the autopsy facilities available here. Govt keeping numbers low enough to justify their actions. Neighbour is a...

    On a more positive note. My adopted daughter was allowed to reopen her stationery shop yesterday in Vienna after nearly 2 months closed. Had people in buying something (not necessarily things they needed) just to show their support for a small local business even though money is tight.

    We're scheduled to start easing from May 4 but still going to be significant controls in place. Early lockdown and people generally respecting it has kept things under control. Seemingly over 50% of deaths from retirement homes. From here UK govt actions being questioned but also much being...

    Love the way different experts grade team drafts (and in particular lower round picks) so differently. Like our main picks. Holes covered, interesting backups but wish Spielman had packaged some of the 3rd day picks to move up for maybe one more O line (although they do seem keen on last year's...

    Don't think it got to money. Vikings would have released Harris to create cap space. Think he may have his eyes on 49ers or Rams but they hadn't got much to offer Skins in this year's draft. Rams aren't flush with cash either. Minnesota press saying he doesn't get on with Cousins either.

    Apparently Williams turned down a trade to Vikings. Had offered to 3rd round picks plus some lower round picks.

    Mandatory here but not being enforced or obeyed for some reason. Because it was decreed by mayor of Budapest (opposition party) apparently govt telling police to ignore it. Only around half the people obeying it - not a big jump on those that were doing it before the Decree.

    think 4th round begins at 5pm Uk time and obviously is quicker as 5 mins for 4th-6th round picks and 4 minutes for 7th round

    The way it mutates so quickly makes finding a long-term effective vaccine seem very difficult atm. Same reason as the "normal" flu vaccine varies from year to year and people are advised to have a new jab each year

    like the picks but don't like trading down with the Saints unless they're going to trade back up. although 4 extra picks in exchange for 1 was a big price. Going into last day with 13 picks seems like overkill. Spielman does get carried away with accumulating picks Maybe we're going to take...

    I like Asiasi from UCLA if Kmet has gone. Not quite as big but quicker and can block.
