COVID-19/Coronavirus thread
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.

I wish I was still teaching irony to 8th graders. I could add that to my example list.

If you fill out all the paperwork correctly she could land on the Stanford Rowing Team.

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.

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 ?♂️

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

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.

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

It doesn't even have to be in separate geographic areas. Just pick three or four stadiums and start filming.

He's doing what the owners want. They are the only group that matters as far as him keeping his job.

That's what I was advocating. Play three games per day in each stadium. It's a made for TV event anyway.

A top organization would be releasing a statement that sounds something like this . . . Based on 14 players testing positive we are following the protocol we established before the season. The infected players and staff will be isolated at their hotel, replacement players are being flown in from the 60 team reserve squad, and tonight's game as been postponed and will be played at a later date, if necessary.

Fixed for you.

Forgot about that. These 14 could infect hundreds. Which is how we get to a pandemic.

The billionaires will explain that they are trying to help the poor by giving them an opportunity to earn a living which is why they shouldn't be taxed. And health care is something you should earn, it shouldn't just be provided by the government. MAGA

Good question.

Didn't think about it until I read that, but catchers have the best chance to catch the virus. They are close to every player in the game at some point. Hazard pay for the receivers.

This could be interesting, but I assume most thought about this scenario before committing to the season.

And a thank you to all the players who are playing. Sure for many it's for the money, but they are risking their long term health to entertain us.

Now every team knows that their opponent might be hours away from an outbreak.

Put a runner on second each inning not everyone is wearing a mask. Can players opt out during the season? Another possible ripple to this issue.

Fourteen players positive seems to indicate too little. If MLB cancelled the season, would we ever know if that was too much? How would you determine that we did too much?
