    Yep. If there's one more team like the Marlins, NFL is a goner.

    I respect golf for that reason. You play bad and you're flipping burgers or a driving range pro.
    If the other sports paid that way.....game on!

    It spreads through air droplets.

    It has a higher infection rate because people are asymptomatic and dont know they have it

    Having an outbreak was inevitable. How pro sports reacts is the key to preserving the season.

    Even with the success so far of bubble leagues where American soccer and lacrosse has reported no positives after initial reporting, that does not mean sports without a bubble are doomed to failure.

    Some have noted that I am “negative” on the bubble concept. That is not true. I am dubious as to the executability of a true bubble as evidenced by the NBA issues with Lou Williams hitting Magic City “for the wings” and have worry of all “eggs being in one basket”. An outbreak with one team if quick action is taken, can be contained. An outbreak inside the bubble could shut a league down immediately.

    Well in that case, the people that do show symptoms still may not show them until 5-14 days after infection

    Where as the flu is typically 2 days

    this is going to be just like the college basketball, once a couple of more players go down with the virus the big names will not play and that will be the season.

    mls sent 2 teams home and they still played

    mlb went through a lot of trouble to come back, but I do think we will see more of this all year, how much can they take is the question

    as for college sports, they should be shut down for fall IMO

    It's not plague free.

    2 main event fights have been canceled already because of the virus right?

    One of them for sure while the fighter was on the island, just a couple days before the event.

    With that said, Dana has done a tremendous job with this island and keeping it as plague free as possible.

    Hats off to him and the UFC.

    They're saying that the Marlins decided to play the Phillies on Friday even after multiple players tested positive.

    Only way NFL is played this year it's on an island. Find an uninhabited island in the Bahamas and build a football field. Then put the players on cruise ships around the island. The practices can be done on cruise ships and the games can be staggered to be played on the same field.

    The problem football will have is you can’t put hospitals in a bubble, anyone needing medical care will likely need to quarantine.

    Baseball is unraveling today. They didn't make it a week. Other sports are toast now when they see baseball's example. Looks like Nascar and golf are the only thing that will be going on this year. Sucks I was so "head in the sand" with hopes of having football this year.

    WWE has made it work for months with just a few speed bumps. They're more susceptible than football players would be because they are half naked out there already with similar contact. If anything, I think this signals to all players to take protocols more seriously. I'm sure it's going to come out that at least a couple of these Marlins were doing something similar to what Lou Williams did.

    plus qualifiers who only get in AFTER they qualify and only tested after that

    and.... atleast 1 or 2 were false positives
    Out of the 300 probably 150+ didn't even get tested so that number would actually be much higher. COVID is VERY contagious.

    completely wrong

    you have to get tested and you have to prove you passed (pga has the results before you do)
