I was thinking about who on a football field would be at risk.... Refs jumped out and maybe a few coaches... But those damn chain gang guys are gonna have to sit this season out. I have never seen one a day under 70. Need some student volunteers.

It’s pretty much a given that every football team whether high school, college, or pro is likely to have anywhere from 2 to 10 cases of the virus at any given time from now until the virus has either played its way out or broadly used vaccine is developed. The impact that will have on the actual playing of sports will likely depend solely on the players, coaches, and organization’s (high schools, colleges, owners, leagues) realization that for foreseeable future that this virus is just something that we are going to hafta learn to live with. Most of these young men only have a finite window of which to play sports and can’t spend some of the best years of their lives holed up in a bunker until there are no more risks or else they’ll never be allowed to come out.

A vaccine could be years away. Are we all going to sit in plastic bubbles until then? Or are we going to live our lives, while of course being cautious and making smart decisions about our own health and hygiene?

No, I don’t want old people or anyone else to die, but we have to start living at some point.

Every cloud has a silver lining. It's better to sit out now than 2 weeks during the season. I'm sure Saban has his team greeting each other with a kiss everyday just to make sure everyone has it and is over it before the season starts.

Whoop de doo. He's not stating anything we all don't know. Too bad he wasn't invited to some of the Covid parties.

Totally agree with you're statements, only problem is people aren't being cautious or making smart decisions which is why numbers of younger adults testing positive are spiking, which could lead to the death rates increasing. Just came back from Orange Beach and I'd say the majority of people could care less about wearing a mask or social distancing. Only area of social distancing was on the beach, as beach chairs were approximately 6' feet apart. Other then that zero concern.

You haven't been looking too hard. I am right beside them alot of the time. The age probably ranges from 30-60.

I’m here and most restaurants if not all are using the every other table rule.

Lines are marked but people aren’t using the marks.

What does all that mean? Seems like 95% of the people in OBA right now have weighed the risks and decided to live while they can.

I tend to agree with them.

There are a lot of people who have it. There has been a lot of people who have had it. There will be a lot of people to get it. It is not going away until vaccine or everyone has had it.

Regardless if you like Finebaum, he is right.

NASCAR hasn't allow fans in the stands yet. PGA isn't allowing fans until July (which we shall see). MiLB isn't playing. NBA has a few teams playing in a bubble and no fans.

We shall see what MLB and NFL does. MLB punted to the local ordinances. However in this political environment, I don't see the NCAA or sec giving the green light to full schedules and full stadiums. These guys are student volunteers that provide entertainment.

Schools are acting like we are going to play to get players to campus just in case a few are played. 2. Get your money. 3. Keep up moral.
