Patriots Forced To Shut Down Facility After 4th Coronavirus Case
With the Coronavirus still spreading at a rapid rate around the world, it’s clear that life has changed quite a bit. Now, we are all expected to social distance and take the proper precautions to not get infected by the virus. Simply put, this is much easier said than done, especially when you are an athlete who needs to be around people at practice and during games. Without the presence of a bubble, the NFL has been feeling the pressure and they understand just how hard this can all be.
The Tennessee Titans are the best example of this as they have had upwards of 20 people test positive over the past two weeks. Meanwhile, the Patriots have had four positive tests, including one this morning. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Patriots’ fourth positive test has led to a full shutdown of their facilities. Now, their Monday night game against the Denver Broncos is being called into question.
This is massive news for the NFL who has stated that future breaches of the Coronavirus guidelines could result in a loss of draft picks and even forfeited games. The league understands that the season can only go on if the players cooperate, and so far, it remains to be seen whether or not the NFL can actually progress at this rate.
Meanwhile, the Titans suffered yet another COVID case this morning, as well, meaning they could go two weeks in a row without playing a single game.
Stay tuned for updates on this situation as we will be sure to bring them to you.

ReeToxA confronts the past with truth on “HMAS CERBERUS”
“HMAS CERBERUS,” ReeToxA’s new single, is a raw, very personal song about his life experiences. The song sounds like Oz rock from the 1990s, and modern alternative and grunge. It sounds brave and familiar at the same time, like a truth kept secret for a long time.
“HMAS CERBERUS” is based on a true story from Jason McKee’s life, and it shows how his ten years in the Navy changed him and how they still do. The song bravely speaks to the emotional toll of service, including alcoholism and mental stress, sincerely.
The poem is what makes the single stand out. The writing is brilliant and stays smart, and it’s hard without being preachy. The singer got the idea for the song when he saw four seasons in one day at a beer garden in Melbourne. It connects the sudden change in the weather to a life that is constantly changing and hiding how you feel. It’s a potent metaphor for a mind that finally stops long enough to figure out where the damage started.
The song “HMAS CERBERUS” is both intense and at the same time. It makes you think, but it’s also surprisingly easy to dance to, which shows that dark themes don’t have to be sad music. The song is both interesting and challenging to listen to because of the gritty guitars and rock base. In a sea of safe releases, ReeToxA stands out as honest, raw, uncomfortable, and necessary. “HMAS CERBERUS” is a brave meditation that stays with you for a long.time

A love letter penned to a close friend who faced severe cognitive decline, the song’s emotional heft feels universal yet heartbreakingly personal.
