Gipper Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Although I hate to think this, but what the general consensus on the upcoming season? Will it be played? A lot of other leagues are shutting down: worse yet. would we all be contracted? Have a great day and stay safe, G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrenchWarfare58 Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 I'm just glad we can finally start using taxpayer funding on something other than children and their athletic endeavors if all leagues are shut down 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not according to this this article: https://dnyuz.com/2020/03/12/if-im-going-to-get-sick-and-die-i-might-as-well-do-it-at-disney-world/ While I haven't been to Disney in years, I have spent a fair amount of time in the area. There's usually a large contingent of Europeans, a lot of Germans in particular. So I guess those folks won't be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVSC will be closing all school facilities beginning tomorrow evening, March 13 at 5:00 p.m. School closure to continue through Sunday, March 29, with plans to reopen on Monday, March 30, following spring break. However, we will continue to stay in close contact with government and health officials to determine if it is necessary to prolong this school facility closure. Beginning tomorrow at 5:00 p.m., all extracurricular events and practices are cancelled until school facilities are reopened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What we may talk about for years to come is the manner we chose to respond. I agree with you, but I think a lot has to do with our response this time. I'm standing in line at the store right now, I assume this is what Black Friday is like (never been). I don't remember this type of frenzy back in 2009.

Gipper Posted March 13, 2020 Author Share Posted March 13, 2020 I’m not much of a conspiracy theorist, but isn’t this kind of what our enemies want (as yes I’m including China) want? Look at it: financial markets are in the toilet, life as we know is being canceled or curtailed left and right, even travel is being affected (I have received emails from Speedway and various hotel chains). I know this is just Pneumonia 2.0, but it looks like they’re winning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
