  1. This was the first debate I've watched in a few years. I don't like either guy but I expected Newsom to do a lot better. Gavin reminded me of Trump in the first Trump/Biden debate, not answering questions and constantly trying to talk over DeSantis. He may be perfect for California but not the rest of the country. It was the first time I've seen a feces map pulled out as a prop. San Francisco is circling the drain.
  2. New Mexico has a very high level of mask wearing and has had a mask for almost a year. NM also has had the most severe lockdowns of any state yet we’re 15th highest in COVID death rates per capita. Common sense says mask wearing will help but the mortality rates aren’t reflected in NM’s numbers.
  3. I know several people who have had it. Early April a good friend had his parents visit and after they went home they tested positive. Friend and wife are mid 40’s and tested negative. Their 6 year old son with significant health issues tested positive. Kid was asymptomatic and parents never contracted it despite being with the kid 24/7. Friends mom who got it has emphysema, diabetes plus more issues. She was sick for a few days but recovered fine. Her husband in good shape was in bed for a week but also recovered. My daughter 18 year old friend got it on visit to BSU this summer, asymptomatic and gave it to her mom here who was the same. Dad never caught it. My Dads neighbors in their seventies caught it and were sick for a week. Neighbors mom who is 92 caught it and had mild flu symptoms. Nobody I know has been hospitalized or had lingering symptoms.
  4. NM population is about 20% more than Idaho with 403 cases tested positive, 15k tested at 2.5% of tests positive. Our numbers tested are better than most but I expect some rapid increase in numbers soon. Urgent care and hospitals are still very slow here now.
  5. NM has tested 1720 people with 23 confirmed cases. Like everywhere else we just need to be able to test more people much more quickly. This should get better in the coming weeks. In the mean time masks, gloves and cleaning agents are easy to produce and are much cheaper than spending trillions on getting us by for a few months.
  6. South Korea seems to have weathered the storm already. American basketball players will be arriving in SK next week to play in the KBL. It seems with enough masks, latex gloves, sanitary precautions and mass resting we could get back to our lives much sooner than than most projections.
  7. Ed is also a Gracie BJJ black belt.
  8. McDermott makes 1.4 mil per year and isn't ready to leave. Turgeon makes 2.6 mil per year. UNM can't even match McDermotts salary now after paying Neals buyout. Both of those guys are too expensive. Mark Gottfried is a possibility since he was just fired but nobody seems to really know where our AD is going right now.
  9. Neal was an NBA assistant before getting hired by Alford then had 9 years experience as an assistant D1 coach before getting the head coach job. Borrego could turn out to be a homerun hire but the chances are greater of him cratering the program.
  10. Noodles Nation is over. It's now Lobo Basketball...at least on the Lair.
