  1. Please let's not speculate on what is a nightmare situation for any human. That is one possibility but there are many more. His situation goes beyond sports and this message board.
  2. Let's look at this moving forward and it may be a good thing for the other teams. An outbreak like this and your roster is shot for two weeks to a month. You just eliminated yourself from the playoffs. The keys for winning this year Keep your players healthy (way more than a regular year) so let's invest some cash to help make that happen. Your organization will have to be deep. Everyone that would have been on your forty man roster and perhaps more will probably be playing at some point. If you thought a Loogy was weird, how about a FRFSIT10 - Fast Runner From Second in the 10th guy.
  3. Wow. Splitting up at the same time with a new born on the way. I can't image a worst scenario.
  4. I seriously believe it has to be a marquee player. I wish I was joking.
  5. What a shit decision some 56th guy on a roster has to make. Yeah, 30 guys have caught Covid on this team, now I'm going in? It's the only chance some career MiLB guy may get. I feel sorry for these guys.
  6. There is a reason they have 60 reserved. This season may be a test of the depth of an organization.
  7. I wonder if Vegas has set an over under for how many different players will suit up for a Sox game. 45 would be an interesting number.
  8. How about videos of fans in the hospital with Covid?
  9. Yep, get out of my truck, walk half way to the store entrance, stop, swear a little, walk back, grab my mask, walk back inside . . .
  10. I have five people I know who have been through it and all say the same thing, they worried about having infected someone else. I wish more people would get that and understand they are infecting people long before they feel sick.
  11. Glad you are feeling better.
  12. I wish I was still teaching irony to 8th graders. I could add that to my example list.
  13. If you fill out all the paperwork correctly she could land on the Stanford Rowing Team.
  14. I get the idea of encouraging business spending in restaurants. It fits in with the trickle down ideology of Republicans. Let the wealthy save some money and eventually it will help the poorer folks.
  15. Dealing with parents who believe colleges will be lined up to pay their kid to attend is the one thing that high school coaches dread. There is a misleading myth that girl golf scholarships are easy to get. I remember one parent after I pulled up the roster of a leading Texas University to show the parents that the school recruited internationally looked at me and said it was proof their couldn't break 80 daughter was a great fit because the coaches couldn't find players in the US and have to go to Sweden to find players ?‍♂️
  16. I use Waze and wondered the same thing. For mapping workouts you get stats and history. A couple of RV channels I watch talk about the convenience of having a dedicated GPS so they could use their phones for other tasks, bigger screens on GPS, RV (truck) specific routes, heads up navigation, and a couple other features. I just don't want more clutter on my dash, more cables, more more more
  17. And if no one on the As tests positve some folks will use that as an example of non of this matters, anyone can get it, nothing makes a difference etc
  18. my cardiologist traveled by plane and dressed the same. Everything was fine until he got on the airport shuttle and people said "we can finally take off these masks" and almost everyone did.
  19. Instead they look like they are making it up as they go, BTW the Soxtalk Mod team are being careful to socially distance ourselves in different states and no more than two will ever be in the same space. Damn good plan ChiSoxfn
  20. It doesn't even have to be in separate geographic areas. Just pick three or four stadiums and start filming.
  21. He's doing what the owners want. They are the only group that matters as far as him keeping his job.
  22. That's what I was advocating. Play three games per day in each stadium. It's a made for TV event anyway.
