disruption and some of it dangerous, some of it just inconvenient. first of all, in our transportation hub we re hearing about the airports, tsa agents calling out sick in large numbers, home sick with covid. also ground transportation, all the aspects of the airline industry. so we should anticipate huge delays and disruptions in that, all transportation hubs. the schools are going to be problematic, especially when teachers and staff and bus drivers have to call out for breakthrough covid. it s not going to be easy to maintain the schools in session for the next few weeks. the biggest concern, of course, as dr. schaffner pointed out, the hospital workers. even though you have fewer numbers of patients going into the hospitals, into icus, you have a commensurate decrease in the number of health care providers who can take care of them. that will create a dangerous situation. and two of the three monoclonal antibodies don t work and

cincy was the first nonpower five school to ever make the playoff. they fought hard against the tide but bama too big, too strong, too fast for the bear cats. their offensive line was bulldozing, averaging over three yards per rush before anyone even touched the ball carrier. brian robinson with the best game of his career, every 200 yards rushing. bryce rice throwing for three touchdowns. roll tide. a 27-6 win. alabama trying to win back to back titles which would make their seventh championship in 15 seasons under nick saban. georgia coach is a former assistant for saban at alabama. saban is 25-1 all time against former assistants, his only loss came this season. so those dogs are hopeful, ready for redemption and a rematch one week from monday in indy. all right. coy, it s a new year, but it s the same old problem for the national hockey league dealing with covid after unexpectedly pausing the season at christmas
