Concerts as well. But those were starting to get canceled before sports pulled the plug.

So you are saying we are shutdown over nothing and we should have sports with fans in the seats, ASAP? Is that what you are implying?


Regardless of if we had a few cases here before late January.... it didn’t spread to all 50 states because a few people had it in December. The mass spread was started in February and March here in the United States. That’s just fact. What you brought up has no baring on anything in here.

1) I don't imply things. You know what my opinions are all the time. No, I'm not implying that but I am saying because the virus was here much earlier than we thought, it shows it's not as dangerous as we all thought.

2) So, you now admit I was correct? So, instead of arguing with me all the time, just accept I do my homework and know WTF I'm talking about. It has everything to do with what happened in Feb and March.

Translation: Mob I need to correspond back and forth with you like an addict needs crack, sorry for blocking you. I will never do something like that again, no matter how much you disrespect me.

PatsFan is my intellectual superior in every way though, gonna stay away from that 1. Especially since he snuffed out my Clay Travis shtick stone cold.

I don't even know why Enfuego is still posting with the old shtick, you would think me totally humiliating the lying liar would've changed his act up some.

Pats: you told Mob it'll be over in a month
Dunce: No, you're making that up
(give it a few hours)
Keef: nah, here it is you indeed said it numerous times
Dunce: Oh

Find a new slant as Jerry Colangelo's wife once said


Also, comparing sporting events from December '19 to June-Aug '20 is incredibly stupid and not apples to apples. Anyone that isn't sick of reading this guy would have to be dumber than him. A tall task indeed.

I can’t take that crackhead anymore. He repeats himself being wrong every fucking post. I’m not going to tell him why he’s wrong again and again.

Lmfao you are doing a great job. I am just going to retweet your shit so 1. He sees it and 2. I’m not going to do this all day with Enflameo like he wants Much appreciated

He's just wrecked, he doesn't even know what he is saying half the time. Tons of people on here agree, disagree then you've got your trolls doing their thing. But no one else comes off as consistently just starved for interaction as he is. Go read a book bro, seriously. Take a class on pottery, I dunno.

People packing stadiums in Dec/Jan and being fine is completely irrelevant. Many on this board think this is overblown, drastic policy reactions, haphazardly handled, etc

But no one else is like "Man, sporting events didn't cause a massive spread in Dec/Jan so that must mean it is a good idea to resume", I don't even think he believes this really. If Mob said the sky was blue, he would call it red.

Get a good look people, this is what too much internet arguing does to the mind. Crushes it.

That’s the realest shit ive read in a minute. And so very true.



This is exactly why I win every argument with these morons and why I say it is so fucking easy. Because common sense along with 3 minutes of reading to inform yourself always prevails in situations like these.

Packing stadiums didn't cause a spread in December, lol.

I'm still stunned on that 1. If you're gonna come into threads all hot name calling other people on the board then atleast don't say the single dumbest thing I've read on here in the last 2 months. Can we atleast set the bar that high?

Just let us click a thread, watch the video in peace rather than for us to have to read this stupid shit.

You really can't have fans until 2021 at the very least. And then the question becomes....do the owners really want to play? I think pro sports have no choice...they have to play with no fans to declare a champion. College...who gives a fuck if they return anytime soon or not

College football is a helluva game. Not sure why you would say this.

Remind me again how Wisconsin couldn't do mail in ballots
Remind me again about the PPP argument you had and lost bad
Remind me again how many people your buddy say would die, I need to fall out of my chair

I do give you props because you can beat down 1 person here pretty easy. Maybe just stay with that one and make yourself look good

Shit is crazy I’m thinking if pro sports can’t have fans for rest of 2020. How can high schools, rec, and travel leagues be played with fans?

I’m thinking all of the schools sporting events need to be canceled for rest of 2020. I’d be so pissed if I was playing but I think that’s the only option. Right?


I understand deaths could be under control by August here in the states. But....what about cases. And what about schools hosting sporting events? That needs to be a no-go for 2020. Start up next spring maybe for everything not professional sport related.

Actually think that the UFC and the way they handled their event last night was good. Maybe the other sports look at it and model it.

The biggest drawback to sports returning right now is agreement between everyone between the way it is done, and how much money to be split/cut. Those money discussions seem to not end well.

Same with college - and, it is going to be difficult to have sports if no students on campus. Which, I am hopeful won't happen, but it is very up in the air right now.

I hold out hope. At least German soccer starts on Saturday. Never thought I would be jacked up about German soccer, but here I am.

Unfortunately I am dead serious. We only should have pro sports for the rest of 2020 and Into 2021. IMHO no biases about anything. Just being real.

I think the biggest thing to understand is that high schools, Rec leagues, travel leagues, are not going to pay money to test their players and coaches every single practice and game day.


And ok hypothetically speaking, let’s say they can do that.

How do the parents play a role? Are they allowed to drop their kid off? Do you test all of the parents too?

They clearly can’t have students at games going rowdy that is for certain. Parents maybe with masks? Maybe. Only thing I can think of. Limited crowds. No students type deal, no spectators. Only parents. Film it and you’ll have game film for coaches. Only thing that is logical based off what we know.

But testing every single athlete in America just isn’t plausible. I think you have to cancel those sports.



Someone who knew this wasn’t a hoax...please chime in with your thoughts
