NC State Game Cancelled

[cullaville]

This really wasn't a "bubble" like the NBA or NHL. Teams were coming and going all week playing outside the "bubble" and then showing up at Mohegan Sun.

Be safe everone.

Really? I wake up to this? Cmon. 25 more days and we throw this year in trash. Was so looking forward to watching UConn game and putting up tree and getting snowed in. Unreal. The hits just keep on comin. Welp. I guess it’s college football on tv by the tree today then. I’m going back to bed. F this.

Are under the impression that COVID goes away on Jan. 1?

 

[Huskybass]

We have now only played 3 of 5 games. I'm probably not the only one thinking this winds up being a 12 game "season" or something like that. Enjoy every minute we get to watch. Despite the offensive woes against a zone, this is an easy group to love.

Go Huskies!

I saw somewhere that clocks will read 11:60 PM 2020 once the ball drops this year.

Tell her "Hey look over there!!" When she turns around, take a shot. Repeat as necessary.

We are drinking in solemn tribute to the front line health care workers.
I have multiple family members in that group, so, built in reason for me. Cheers.

A positive COVID-19 test of a Gonzaga player and an administrative staff member didn’t stop the top-ranked team in the country from playing Auburn on Friday in the Fort Myers Tip-Off Classic.

Opting to play the game flies in the face of the NCAA’s guideline of a 14-day pause for a program if it has just a single positive test. Eight Big East teams have already gone into a pause because of positive tests and Iona did as well, without a single player testing positive.

Seems like few, if any, deaths have occurred in the Gonzaga or Auburn programs due to this game. Anyone have an update? Not many players are in the high risk category of co-morbidities and over 70 years of age.

 

[HooperScooper]

Why not another game against USC?

Didn't they leave to go home already?

You'll be happy when we are 12 and 0 though!

Yeah ours was the last bubble game so at this point I think everyone has left. UConn has even already left the bubble

Yes, but the NCAA needs to get with the program. 14 days is stupid. People are not contagious that long. CDC knocked it down to 10 and even that has margin for error. 7-8 is the likely number based on the research. Germany is now 5 days from symptom onset or a positive test.

No really? That’s all that was left to watch. College football sucks so many crappy teams. Geezus this day suddenly is awful.

Video games are the likely salvation. Maybe binge a movie series.

Rough day for college basketball with the best team in the country getting their game cancelled, Zags/Baylor game too

I'm quite happy working on my 1st Tito's and soda and watching a Chicago PD marathon on USA Network. Gotta adapt.

Soccer fans never have this problem.

Good for them. Chicago PD for the 10th viewing is much better.

I meant soda water.

 

[Jimdish255]

How many of us said the same darn thing? You can't schedule as if this is a normal season. Looks like our guys will have plenty of practice time. Yippee.

IMO this is a great flick and quite apropos

I’m in. We ain’t scuuuuured. Let’s go

 

[CL82]

Can't they just kill the member of the travelling party, and then play the game? It is only a member of the travelling party. It isn't like it is a player or a coach.

Once the guy is dead, he is no longer a Covid threat. Then It's game on!

Extreme, but if we’re willing to do that for 100 days we can stop the spread of Covid.
