I don’t know one gambler who has stopped watching professional sports....not one

But all of them have opinions....

Herd immunity is the only thing that will get everyone threw this.....you can't shut down anything for that to happen!

You can shut down some things to stop hospitals from being overwhelmed. Then slowly allow herd immunity to (hopefully) have effect while also learning more about this new virus, & working on medicines & vaccines. That is the safer approach.

I'd be surprised if MLB gets close to 60 games in.

Already you have teams that can't do it.

They are bitching about rain delays also !

I can't see completion of this abortion of a season.

What a joke . Maybe the military should shut down as well . It’s not what you can do for your country it’s what your country can do for you. Wow we are officially 3rd world banana republic

Bet you're just giddy about that.

You know it. How many of these players have died? I think there was a thread here about Russell Westbrook getting the Kung Flu. I guess he was the only athlete who has died

i predicted this. millionaires are not just going to sit in their rooms.

until a league shows the balls to say F it we are playing with full stadiums and F corona hoax then its all a waste of time.

you have Hydroxychloroquine proven to stop this cold. no deaths. the doctors are out there using it. these leagues need to get on board if they want to stop losing money.

Absolute F*cking BS.

What's the point of having A ROSTER OF 30 STANDBY GUYS FROM THE AAA MINORS THEN?

Are you telling me they can't simply send infected players home to quarantine, and play on
with their replacements?

You'll never convince me that someone, or some group, isn't calling these illogical shots in
service of an agenda that has little-if-anything to do with sports, player safety, etc.

Funny, Manfred & the league simply announced YESTERDAY that the Cards & Brewers would
just PLAY ON today....

Now, today (or was it later yesterday?) it's Apocolypse Time again!

If I could find the guilty parties behind this horseshit, I'd kill them. Slowly. Slapping-silly90))

Funny how the past 2 months Travel baseball teams from ages 6-13 have been playing all around and even going to tournaments in other states. Parents in stands and no mask or social distances. And kids are even back practicing football the past 2 weeks. Yet I haven’t heard any problems. But somehow a billion dollar platform like MLB with resources out the ass taking extreme measures are having all sorts of problems.

Agent Orange was right about quit testing. If we quit testing it would go away.

Remeber to wear a mask! He who wears a mask is doing so to protect you. Because these droplets prevent it spreading out of the mask but apparently doesn’t prevent it from coming in the mask. So logic says turn the mask inside out right? Lol

This is my life with kids. Since June we have played 13 tournaments between 2 kids....9 & 11. Places were packed with true Americans of all races. Everyone you talk to agrees this BS has ran its course. Football started 2 weeks ago. Practice for 9 & 11 year olds....4 days a week. We take their temps before practice. Not one problem.

The sky screamers are going to scream.....they know nothing else to do.

St Louis Cardinals have three players and three staff members with virus according to Jon Heyman. This might the tip the scales to shutting down baseball. There are just too many lost games and this has now impacted two divisions in baseball. How do you maintain integrity. This is not the Marlins. The Cardinals were predicted to be right in thick of the race as possible division winners. Today's game has already been postponed. So that is now two games for both Cards and Brewers. Anyone want to guess if Sunday will be played.

the cardinals and brewers have 2 more series against each other so you can just play multiple double headers to make it up

this would be a pathetic reason to cancel the season

Exactly. But not one word of anybody even raging about this like people going to church or something. Not one media outlet has brought it up. Seems like a great story with “oh look at all these innocent kids being victims to life threatening CV19 exposure by parents!” But nope everyone is fine and dandy and enjoying life. It would either expose the CV testing with all these 100x precautionary measures by pro athletes as comple BS inaccurate test. Or obviously it isn’t as deadly as they say it is. Billion dollar MLB with unlimited resources can’t function. But miraculously some Penny shop little league baseball and football is firing on all cylinders without a problem.

Yep, and from a non voter or conservative or liberal. I find the liberal ideology stupid as hell. Constantly preaching freedom to do or be whoever. Non governmental control. The far left is the problem. Too stupid to realize their own hypocrisy. They want the government to mandate and enforce stuff. They want everyone to be a bunch of controlled robots. And want to always throw “but muhhh freedom” back at conservatives. All while giving up theirs. All while screaming no government control left and right to their agendas. CV 19 is all about preventing deaths yet they care not individually to do one thing to help or prevent their brothers in the homeless that in straight big liberal cities flood their city. Do people realize in San Francisco they shit on the street like it’s india? And that they have Fire hoses set up with special gadgets that allow the poor, sick and homeless to shower or get water smack dab in the middle of downtown streets. Right in front of businesses. But don’t dare walk the street with no mask as you are entitled to get assaulted. Perfectly okay to assault a non mask wearing person. But don’t dare billy stick the league of a violent unruly crime committing citizen by police.
