I don't, not with how safe programs such as Michigan and Penn State have been keeping their players. I subscribe more to the notion that those players will have a greater chance of contracting the virus on and around campus if they don't play football.

Thanks for the chats Gerry.  Any major rule changes this year?  Do they still have the ever so successful pass interference review?
Gerry Dulac
11:19
No, they scrapped that, thank goodness. No surprise there, either. It was a disaster, and all because one coach complained loudly about it.

Will Augusta play and look drastically different in November? I say Rahm wins his first major then and there
Gerry Dulac
11:20
No dogwood. No azaleas. Doubt it will play as firm because they will have to heavy water to get the overseed to kick in for the fall. And Rahmn a good choice.

Will 2020 losses be spread out over new TV deals to lessen impact on salary cap in 2021?
Gerry Dulac
11:21
I'm not sure how any of this will impact the salary cap in 2021, other than to say I'm sure it will.

In regard to the SEC or NFL or any football being played this fall are people going to freak out when say 25-30 players, (which would be a pretty low percentage) coaches, other personnel, die from covid-19 or will it just be a matter of "We always knew there would be some spoilage."
Gerry Dulac
11:24
I seriously doubt 25-30 players associated with an NFL team are going to die from the virus. C'mon. Have you seen it happen yet in any other sport??

Top three golf courses you have played in terms of difficulty?
Gerry Dulac

Oakmont, Merion and Pinehurst 2

In regard to the Steelers the column should be title "Gerrypandering." LOLZ

What are you saying...???

Do you think Tomlin should add Coach Cowher to his staff to help motivate the players?  Especially against bad teams
Gerry Dulac
11:28
Uh....you have a better chance of seeing me added to his staff than Bill Cowher.

Regarding Camp in the future. Should they stay at Heinz Field/South Side ? St Vincent is a dump and the vast majority of fans, media and players hate it. Thoughts ?
Gerry Dulac
11:29
Disagree totally. Everybody loves it -- players, Tomlin, fans. It's in a serene tranquil mountainous setting and a departure from the norm of practicing on the South Side. Or Heinz Field for that matter.

Is there a Bill Nunn biography?
Gerry Dulac
11:29
Don't know.

Gerry, will the Steelers make this year different as in the past years with a fast start?  Why will they or why not?
Gerry Dulac
11:31
It will be hard to predict any team getting off to a fast start with limited practices and no preseason. But, with nearly every starter returning, the Steelers have as good a chance as any NFL team.

Better first round pick ? Tim Worley, Walter Abercrombie or Greg Hawthorne ?
Gerry Dulac
11:32
Wow, that's like asking do you prefer castor oil, liver or broccoli? You should have said "worst" first-round pick.

I meant the entire SEC or NFL or whatever. Not just one team but the entire conference/league.
Gerry Dulac
11:33
I don't think the NFL has any intention of canceling or postponing, not right now.

Which running backs on 53, on 16, or released? Thanks!
Gerry Dulac
11:34
The RBs will be Conner, Snell, McFadden and Watt for sure. Samuels could have to battle with Kerrith Whyte or even Wendell Smallwood.
Jay Daven
11:36
Is there going to be any precedent set because of the virus in following years i.e., practice protocols, number of pre-season games, etc., that you see?
Gerry Dulac
11:36
I'm sure they might be some leftover protocols, but I believe everything will go back to normal after this season. I say that with fingers crossed.
Well, kids, that's all the time we have today. Thanx for the questions.
