    Don’t you guys get it? The Media is trying to scare you

    Fear is what the media loves more than anything.

    Fear attracts viewers which in turn spikes ratings

    Do you know who the biggest fans of the Corona Virus are?

    Fox News and CNN

    Wash your hands people, especially after taking a dump or giving your boys dap

    wear condoms

    use your shirt to open door handles

    use a paper towel to turn sinks off or if you have to just the leave the water running

    but just be smart and you will all be okay

    I hate to see you guys in this state of panic

    most of you could use a break from sports anyway

    relax and happy Friday the 13th

    I hope you all have a great weekend

    If it's just a media fear campaign... why don't you lead by example and book your $35 Mexican cruise first Bear?

    Big Bear is right. Media has the younger portion of the population to the point where they are easy to manipulate. God help you kids when us older people actually die. Right now, we are barely saving you from yourselves. You just don't know it yet.

    I have never wanted to be on a cruise ship

    I don’t like being around that many people and stuck on a boat

    I’d rather fly to my destination and get a hotel

    Flights the same Bear.

    Want to see Australia?

    It's down near $400 return already. Wait a few weeks and it is supposed to be going to be free with a 7 night hotel booking.


    It's just a media scare, take advantage mate!!!

    well I don’t have any interest in seeing Australia.

    But I am looking forward to cheap flights I would love to go to Jamaica or Cabo San Lucas or perhaps Colorado, or maybe even Cali.

    Although Cali scares me a little

    When I first visited America and was looking at online reviews of hotels, it was weird/shocking how the majority of the reviews, anywhere, talked about if it was safe on the streets around the hotel.

    I love Cali to visit. Do it. It's so weird in parts of LA it feels like walking into a life size movie set. And I think you guys don't realize just how polite and friendly most Americans actually are. It doesn't feel dangerous there.

    No it won't. It may be that it won't end up being a disaster scenario because of these extreme measures. Many won't admit it.
