I’ve noticed that on this board we tend to lay off current student athletes but don’t have any problem being critical of our graduates.

That's always been my view. Kerry is much my senior in age and experience, so I expect better, whereas I'm fairly confident I too said stupid things on (very nascent Facebook) social media in college. Also his platform is 1/1000th that hers is - hit me up when his tweets are a top story on ESPN News.

And your point is what exactly? That he's saying stupid things because he's young, immature and ignorant? Seriously? Geez, that's pretty damning, but alas, you still won't call him out. Why not? Please enlighten him for his sake. Please bestow your wisdom upon him before it's too late.

Also, you expect better from an older grad? She has a different POV than yours, so you expect better? The arrogance of some "enlighten" Stanford grads knows no ends. Isn't diversity of thought important in your world? Good grief, it's what I cherish most.

And by the way, hit us up when your posts become a story outside of the Cardboard Covid-19 forum.

Jumping all over a poster here for "not calling out" a Stanford athlete? Pointless and offensive, IMO.

Cardcrimson was being sarcastic for other purposes.  I'm sure he/she has no interest in anyone here berating Stanford students or alums for their differing POVs.  Think that was his point along (I suspect) with another . . . that "polite, enlightened" people do not like to admit.  And since I am both (ha, ha), I'll let you decipher that.

But I do agree the tone was too harsh (and this from someone who gives a few and takes many).
