There was a game about to start that was called with fans in the stands. At least one of the officials had called a game that the infected player was in last week. I would not bet on having a state tournament in Missouri this year as fast as the cancellations are coming in. Maryville is not hosting a playoff game now and Lindenwood has shut down where the Class 5 quarter final between Poplar Bluff and Kirkwood girls was supposed be Saturday.Gosh I hope the C-virus comes around every year.....that is the best news ever!!! Getting rid of the NBA yearly would be a God send!
You think they’re going to play other sports after this? No way. Ncaa tourney, NHL, MLS, XFL, soccer, etc. it’s all going to be off for now.Gosh I hope the C-virus comes around every year.....that is the best news ever!!! Getting rid of the NBA yearly would be a God send!

States and localities were banning the events as is. It was only a matter of time. All it would take is one sick player to halt the season when they had to put teams, officials, etc into quarantine. It was bound to happenThat's probably true....Insanity is more infectious than the C-Virus.

Here is a sentence I thought I would never say or type. I kind of feel bad for Vince McMahon. I think he tried to do the XFL right this time. It isn't a carnival sideshow. It isn't great and it isn't perfect, but there was a legitimate effort to put something together, and this is completely out of their control, and it will probably end it.You think they’re going to play other sports after this?

I think he had a better plan, and if the TV ratings had stayed at this level he probably had a chance.Here is a sentence I thought I would never say or type. I kind of feel bad for Vince McMahon.

Having sick players infecting 80 year old owners and 65 year old coaches is recipe for PR disasterI'm not disagreeing that it wasn't bound to happen. But a infection isn't a death sentence for most. Again they are going to cancel because they are scared of the PR issues if someone did get sick.
I think the players infecting James Dolan would probably not be a disaster.Having sick players infecting 80 year old owners and 65 year old coaches is recipe for PR disaster
Nascar will go on with no fans. That might be only sport that not having fans would have no affect on the outcome. In basketball the atmosphere with a huge crowd can probably make more of a difference than any other sport.I think the players infecting James Dolan would probably not be a disaster.
I hope it stays on. We need something sports related on TV. I'm not convinced this will be the case for long, though.Nascar will go on with no fans.
