Now that the Coronavirus can be detected in tests within 15 minutes why can't MLB start playing games without crowds? Each team and umps along with camera operators could be tested one hour before gametime and then if all is good the game could be played.

Sure would make this lockdown more bearable if there was some baseball to watch.

Jeesh just watch reruns of leave it to beaver or hogans heroes

Or MASH or Gilligan's Island. I finally had to tell my boomer dad to STFU and use my Netflix today because he was so irate about no baseball... so weird.

This is giving me PTSD for when my grandpa got a PC in 2003 and was completely outraged by solitaire on Windows. He legit would rather play Solitaire against himself with actual physical cards until he got arthritis bad in his hands. Then he begged me to teach him the computer.

Boomers and old people in general aren't stupid, they're just stubborn. Which is even worse.

Thanks for the advice. But nothing in response to the actual question. Color me surprised.

Edit: And it does seem somewhat creepy that you two post almost in unison. I know why but most do not.

It’s not really all that surprising when they sleep in the same bed.

This is why the plan to play at the spring training facilities makes sense. Get that TV money coming in, ticket sales are only 20%.

Because virtue signaling about doing anything and everything to save but just one life is the new attack plan that looks good for your political future.

Never mind that it is a virtual certainty that more Americans will kill themselves over poor economic prospects and isolation due to this than will die from this virus itself.

Never mind that this virus is killing more 100+ year olds than 30 year olds and younger.

Anything that doesn’t directly reduce the possibility of a single coronavirus death cannot be done.

As far as the OP is concerned. MLB is working it out with the MLBPA. There is a issue with reduced pay with reduced revenue that they are negotiating.

Mike Trout came out and said he wont do it. How it was stupid to be quarantined from his family for months at a time for 40 million lousy dollars. They all get suites, no school anywhere, so move your family into the suite with you if you want to be with them, or better yet, say I wont play and let someone else take your spot on the roster. Thats what they want to do, have the shut down hotels and casinos in Arizona house the teams, be considered quarantined, and give them no contact to outsiders, no fans in the seats. The same players, coaches, tv crew who are all quarantined. The way it looks, the democrats want nothing more than to keep the country shut down so they can blame Trump and get Biden elected. They are saying 16 more months now. Thats not only this year, but next season gone as well.

Uhm I went through the 14 day Q. Got past it and back to work.

The peeps with your opinion have not been hit with it directly. I have to work in this new world and wear the mask and glove up. Ask people to keep 6 feet away and shake my head when they have their kids just run up to me when I come by to deliver their mail.

That is a sad reality that we are living right now and as far as I've seen most people get it and respect life others dont. Especially the teens. Jogging around no masklike there is no virus.

I don't know about most of you but it bothers me sorting mail. Who knows what has happened to it to the point it gets to me. I for sure wear gloves and keep it away. Havi g gone through the ringer already I for one am not ok with not using precautions.


So this is really not a political thing. It is being made into it by the Republicans because this fell on their watch. If it fell on Obama's watch then the same people would be out with pitch forks and torches calling for his head for killing Americans.

So this is a life issue. Politics should not be a part of it
And as a case in point. Fla opens the beach in Jax. And the people completely ignored the social distancing in place. I really don't trust the discapine of Americans. 30k deaths point the finger to be serious.

Really? There was a virus in 2009, called H1N1 pandemic, 1.5 MILLION deaths around the globe. I dont remember all these protections in place. It was swept under the rug so the economy would not be decimated. Nobody listened to the cries for pitch forks and torches. The dumbass Governor of New York did not do the stay at home order, the people kept packing in the subways, where is the worst effected part? Where was the worst effected part of the country in 2009. No, Trump stopped travel from China, and they fought him over it because of his war on immigration. How many lives did he save? Now the pity whores are going to fucking china to get N95 masks. Seriously? Buy them from the stock that the Chinese do not want to use after covering up 3500 deaths a day? Maybe you need to look at how political this is when it goes out another month or two and the people are getting thrown out of their houses. That is how far Soros is willing to take this.

My kids went to a series of four stupid bulls games with this stupid ass schedule they have over the course of a week. They both got sick, cold, dry cough, fever, extreme body aches, lasted 4 days. They passed it to my other son, who passed it to me, who is in the worst health, was dealing with an infection from burns on my feet, it stayed with me for three weeks. I did not go where the sick people are, just took cold medicine and primatene for the shortness of breath. Now the experts are saying people sick in January and February had it. Why all the panic over allowing a game to be played? Its not what it is, a type of flu, its is a reason to point fingers at who is to blame.

Yeah, the Democrats managed to conspire with the entire world to make shelter in place orders seem like an appropriate thing to do, so they could tank the US economy, so your president doesn't get reelected.

Are you ****ing dumb?

It is pretty funny to be that ignorant but W/E I am most likely immune and that is your grave.


Latest:


The bump in coronavirus cases is most pronounced in states without stay at home orders. Oklahoma saw a 53% increase in cases over the past week, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University. Over same time, cases jumped 60% in Arkansas, 74% in Nebraska, and 82% in Iowa. South Dakota saw a whopping 205% spike.
