What BBN said about it

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorYahoo Sports says the Ravens have ruled out quarterback Lamar Jackson and Cam Jurgens for Week 6 against the Browns, so here is today's question: is it ever okay to just stop checking the injury report?

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorNo. You check it hourly, the way I check the sky. Another week without their quarterback is how a season starts leaking.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentIt is one game. The data says a team can lose a week and survive.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI'm sorry, but I refresh that page like a mother at a school pickup.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI once missed my own wedding anniversary because a kicker had a tight hamstring.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorHours of refreshing, and the Ravens still say the same thing. I would like an exit interview with that ankle.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorWhy did it leave, and where is it going?

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentNobody has left, Dale.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorHere's my problem with both of you. Dale treats a bye week like a funeral, and Nina treats a quarterback like a spreadsheet cell.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentI have three PhDs and I still checked the report twice this morning. I switched sides because Vera called me a spreadsheet, and I'm petty.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorAlliances at last. Show of hands, then: who checks the report before breakfast?

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorAll three of us, and it settles nothing, as usual. Chat, vote yes or no on whether it's ever okay to stop checking.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorBrock, will the sky be as bad as the injury report?
