    Notre Dame-Wake Forest Cancelled due to virus

    The Notre Dame-Wake Forest football game scheduled for Saturday has been postponed after the Irish announced 13 players are in isolation.
    In a statement Tuesday, Notre Dame said seven players tested positive for coronavirus out of 94 tests done Monday. Combined with testing results from last week, 13 players are in isolation, with 10 in quarantine. As a result, Notre Dame has paused all football-related activities. The two schools are working on a date to reschedule the game.
    "With student-athlete health and safety our primary focus, we will continue to follow our prevention protocols and ongoing testing procedures," Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said in a statement. "We managed an increase in positivity rates in August, and the players handled it wonderfully.
    "We knew COVID would present challenges throughout the season, and we'll always put student-athlete health and safety at the forefront of our decision making. We look forward to resuming team activities and getting back on the playing field."
    Wake Forest athletic director John Currie said in a statement they are working on rescheduling the game for Oct. 3, a mutual open date the two schools share.
    "I know everyone involved is saddened to be unable to play this weekend, but based on the circumstances it is the right decision," Currie said in a statement. "We are already discussing options for rescheduling with the ACC and our future opponents, including the possibility of playing on the October 3rd weekend."
    Notre Dame beat South Florida 52-0 at home last Saturday and opened the season with a win over Duke.
    This is not the first time this season the Irish have had to pause practices. They also paused for three days last month after five positive results during two rounds of testing.
    This is now the fourth ACC game impacted because of coronavirus issues.

    I was just about to post this. Damn, I'm hoping we don't see more of this. I'm loving watching sports right now. CFB, NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL. It's a sports orgy right now and I'm all in.

    I don't see it either unless they have a bubble that I'm not aware of?

    How dumb are they really? Their "nonchalance" seems justified when you consider their demographic is near impervious to the bug. The bureaucratic puppet masters and their kneejerk reactions are what's dumb.

    If a player knows someone who knows someone who's neighbors with someone who read about someone that sneezed last weekend, suddenly there's a pause over "Covid concerns."

    like the hospital stats?

    near 60,000 in hospitals with Covid nation wide at the end of July. We're down to under 29k now and getting lower everyday. Will soon be lower than at anytime going all the way back through April

    It's startling the the main stream media will never give you the good news

    COVID is one of those rare topics where both sides think they're correct.

    I believe in the CDC, I don't think their data is wrong.
    https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tra...sesinlast7days
    But there's a lot of people who think the data is skewed.

    It's like climate change.
    I don't think it's as bad a others make it out to be.
    Some say climate change is catastrophic.

    Only thing I can say is live your life.
    I choose to mask up when I am with 6 feet of someone that is not immediate family and all that other stuff.
    I'll take the precautions.

    If one thinks COVID is some kind of over hyped flu and live life as if it's nothing, so be it.
    I'm not going to argue with you.

    Cheers Steve, I’ll nominate that as well, think I gotta wait 13 mins. Kudos to you for being open minded, I struggle with that at times. There is a very logical middle ground, which you’ve seem to found. I just wish the rest of our media could put their egos aside long enough to follow suit.

    i don't really have a strong POV on the subject either way and am not too bothered with wearing a mask while out

    was more curious to see the stats since last i read the virus had mutated into a less virulent strain

    Appreciate the words.

    The same applies to politics.
    I'm a registered Republican, but I have crossed party lines numerous times and voted Indie or Democrat on the state and local level.

    A lot of Democrats and Republican voters vote straight up and down the party line.
    I don't get it like they think they have to or something.

    If the Democrats have a candidate in a local election here and have points of views that line up with mine, or who I think is a better all around person for the job than I'll cross party lines and swing that way.

    That's a big part of the problem with America these days, and a big part of the reason why a lot of sports bettors fail.
    They are fixated on just their side and forget that their or two sides to every bet and maybe, just maybe, their side isn't the best bet.

    But I digress, carry on.

    Eddy the SBR troll now with all his expertise thinks he can make decisions at the level these people have to make decisions at. Guy is at home crushing SBR betpoints and wants to run the ncaa. Yeah this seems like an amazing idea.
