The red light on this topic is close.

Ok....another one bites the dust. Having a topic or two regarding what is happening with schools opening and sports beginning is ok. The personal attacks are broing. Venturing off into the politics is for the OOB forum, not the football page. We are 10 days from scrimmages.

OOB Question....your response has absolutely nothing to do with my post. I was showing Statguy where he could have posted the additional closings, delays, or other disruptions to programs instead of starting a new topic each time.

Calling someone a d bag on here is a pretty classless thing to do.

One option Another option:

Is it your intention to start a new topic for each program that gets shut down? Has positive tests? Or just temporarily suspends sports? Because there are over 300 schools in the State. And there may be a day where we see a significant number do one of those things. I am sure most people here would prefer to not see the first page full. There is a topic open where these could have been added. How about just posting there?

That really is an ignorant statement. It completely depends on what the coaching responsibilities are. If a coach is a coordinator, he has been in close contact with every player on a given side of the ball. There simply is not enough info given to make such a ridiculous comment.

From what I read, the NP student had the wrong return to school date from his doctor; meaning he had it before he started school.

The concern on my part is at NP, the kid showed up with it. Even though the doctor got the date to return wrong, someone in the house should have known that if the kid still has it, stay home. I mentioned it in an earlier post....probably in one of the many topics that needed to be locked, is parents will send kids who have it. Some may not know because they choose to not test, or some will decide they have to go to work and cannot keep the kid at home.

The BMI chart????? seriously???? I have to cover this in my class. To put it simply; the chart says if you are X ft. X inches tall, you should ideally weigh XXX. This chart is so obsolete, I cannot imagine an era when it would have ever been an accurate measure of health. That said, it appears that this topic has not become about Rochester any more; and just another place for both sides to express repeated claims made on the other what? 50 topics now locked on the virus???

I saw on twitter that Adams County teams are only allowing parents. Each kid gets 4 people they can have at a game.

While I agree that classes could be adjusted based on the number of teams playing at the end of the season and have played the required 4 games, the problem will be what to do with 6A. Since a large number of teams are in the Indy area, and other large cities, where the risk of having a season delayed or even cancelled is higher, schools with even smaller enrollment numbers are going to bump up? Or the teams in 6A could bump down to 5A if needed. My guess is if a County Health Department does something like the one in Marion County did, the 4 game minimum would be waived for this season.

I agree 100% These are closing fast folks. Try staying on topic

Explaining any further is completely unnecessary.

I know you don't....and that is unfortunate.

Yep, this one is quickly heading down that same wormhole lol

Yeah; not a fan of laughing at someone that suffered from this and passed away. His stance on the masks aside, I think it is sad that people can find humor in it.

Ok....like all the others before, this one has run its course.

The Fort Wayne Zoo is open

The whole visual of this is priceless. You need a picture, decked out in your Packers gear. The meme would say “because we cannot see games in person” with you in front of the Lion’ and Bears’ dens yelling booooo

Not sure what drove it here in Indiana, but 1989 is when the change occurred here. One would think that the blizzards of 78 and 79 would have been the cause for the changes, but getting it through 10 years later does not add up. I know that Michigan and Wisconsin have both eliminated the 180 day requirement within the last couple years. They are allowed to look at hours spent in different subjects over the course of a year. It also means they can build in time to avoid snow make up days.

I think a number of districts will do the virtual learning drastically different than what took place in the Spring. Here in Allen County, every district has a plan that includes virtual students being logged in for each class period of a regular day.

Wow; go to practice for a couple hours and come home to 3 additional pages on a topic about a decision that has been reversed; and maybe one or two posts about that decision. There are other posts to talk about the general topic of openings and the start of the season. There is also a place for the personal barbs back and forth......direct messages. Oh yeah, there is also the ignore feature.
