Falcons Shut Down Facility After Multiple Positive COVID Tests

This season has not been very kind to the Atlanta Falcons. After an 0-5 start to the season, the team decided to fire head coach Dan Quinn, who was starting to lose both fans, and his own locker room. This weekend, the Falcons were gearing up to play the Minnesota Vikings, who were certainly a team they could compete with, for that very first win. Now, however, those plans may very well be in jeopardy as it was reported by Adam Schefter of ESPN that multiple players tested positive for the virus.

Later this morning, Schefter confirmed that four players tested positive, although the Falcons are looking to get each player re-tested to make sure there isn’t a false-positive being thrown around.

Either way, this doesn’t look good for the Falcons as there is a chance they will have to have their upcoming game re-scheduled. The Falcons wouldn’t be the first ones to have to do this, as the Tennessee Titans and New England Patriots have all dealt with outbreaks this season.

The NFL has vowed to enact harsh punishments against teams who don’t obey the COVID guidelines. In fact, some of these punishments include forfeited games and the loss of draft picks.

For now, it remains to be seen how the Falcons will have to move forward.

The Real Mack The Knife honors memory and spirit with soulful release “Rio Grande de Loíza”

The song “Rio Grande de Loíza” by The Real Mack The Knife is a powerful tribute to Puerto Rico’s history, memory, and sacred spirit. The track transforms nature into something spiritual, intimate, and timeless, inspired by the legendary river and Julia de Burgos’ immortal voice.

The song “Rio Grande de Loíza” has an old, alive vibe from the beginning. River water, moonlight, desire, and cultural memory shape a song that seems to rise from the ground. The Real Mack The Knife uses the river as a living, symbolic being, unlike the original work.

Julia de Burgos gives the piece incredible depth. She sees the river as a witness, a mother, a wound, a mirror, and a prayer throughout the song’s emotional landscape. The literary and spiritual connection gives the track a haunting beauty beyond music.
