Damage at this church in Weymouth after police believe someone tried to set it on fire.

This is a disturbing attack on Catholicism and religion. Sadly, it is among a series of attacks on Catholic churches that have happened in recent days. I hope that the perpetrators will be brought to justice, but I also pray that they will find their way to God as well. https://t.co/MFPHZhqn3h — Chuck Fleischmann (@RepChuck) July 15, 2020

It’s “believed” that a large chunk of players, coaches and staff plan on staying at the hotel during the coronavirus pandemic. ESPN noted that it’s not mandatory that players stay at the hotel, but it is “strongly suggested” staying within the bubble at Omni.

This is really smart. If there’s anything we’ve learned from the NHL and NBA, bubbles work and they work damn well.
While the NFL won’t have a bubble system for actual games during the 2020 season, there’s nothing wrong with having one for training camp.

He doesn ’ t view anything more as possible .
Spring football has zero @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s such a dumb idea that it ’ s hard to believe that it ’ s being seriously discussed .
You simply can ’ t have players play in the spring and then play in the fall in 2021 .

Those stances don ’ t line @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In fact , they ’ re damn near polar opposites .

Let ’ s just crack some beers and accept our fate .
