Oski will be one of the first to NOT survive from covid-19.

1. Age - if it's true that covid-19 impacts older folks more, then it doesn't bold well for grandpa Oski

2. Athleticism - Oski consistently walks with his arms behind his back; he doesn't seem to be in shape v. Donald Duck - I mean Oregon Duck constantly doing push-ups

I guess the one thing Oski has is that he is kind of scary looking, which will help social distancing?

(Admittedly, I've wished Cal would give Oski an "update" for many years now. Let's start with the fountain of youth.)

leland, my son noted that you missed an obvious reason to take out the Cougs and Wildcats as the Bronx Zoo has found that big cats will contract COVID from their human handlers.

Your son is right—they could have been eliminated from the jump before the Trojans. I wrote this before that news broke.

Oski has an additional advantage that many people find him creepy enough that they automatically stay at least 6 feet away from him at all times.

That came to mind upon reading the title of the thread....almost knee jerk.
