Get their act together?  Inventing a safe and effective drug is not like baking a cake man.  The pharma industry is combining forces and working hard on both a treatment drug and a vaccine and a treatment drug.  All indications is that there will be a vaccine much sooner than Dr. Fauci's original projections.

You may want to research this one a little more...tremendous efforts are in progress.

We also know that current flu vaccines are nothing close to 100% effective.  People better prepare themselves not just to get warm fuzzy that a vaccine eliminates the problem.  Reduces it, yes...eliminates it, no.

Typical timeline for a vaccine

Looks like someone's feeling a little superior...

I think that @bombkicker is the true voice of reason on this thread.  You have @oldtimeqb and @DannEllenwood who feel the virus is leftist plot to take away freedoms and you also have people who feel we shouldn't play at all.  We all need to show proper respect to the safety measures and wear a mask and social distance and demand it by our athletes when they can do it.  We will face bumps along the way but we must follow the rules to protect each other.

Whatever. Not even Bob Ross uses as broad a brush as you just used. 

I said last week I think fans should wear a mask if they want to sit in the stands. I respect the virus. But I refuse to live in fear of it. 

We wash our hands. We wear masks in public. And we live our life. If that bothers you, that is a you problem.

Very well stated.

Everyone is talking about masks, social distancing, etc for the fans.  What about the players?  How can they stay 6 feet apart when they line up in a formation?  Then what about when they tackle someone?  Having players wear a shield or a mask isn't the end all be all for preventing this virus spread.  Everyone is getting sweaty.  When you tackle someone can't it be spread that way too?  To require the fans to do this and NOT the players is totally hypocritical.  There should be NO season until there is a vaccine.  That way there is more certainty and would cut down on most of the BS speculation.

As with any other conflict, both sides shared in a little of the blame...

One thing with these messsge boards, debate is always constant.  Everybody thinks their thinking is the best, everyone else is stupid, and then the personal attacks begin.  It’s almost like we’re back in 3rd grade.

See. That’s funny right there. 

I must add, by a guy/lady hiding behind a screen name. 

I think Ronnys was quite funny too. But. He’s hiding too.

I believe I saw that something is coming Wednesday from the IHSAA. 
 

I may be wrong, but it is really rare that I am on this message board. 🤣 

 

just kidding. I saw @Gipper’s post and had to throw that in there.

How about the next man up mentality?

Teams have been dealing with illness of all sorts since God created us.

Breaking News last night was Aroldis Chapman has the "virus", but with VERY mild symptoms.  But never divulge the symptoms.

This is a HUGE, pivotal moment for education.  Like it or not.  Public Education and Teachers Unions have been put on FULL BLAST!

Up in NW Indiana, Boone Grove has put all fall sports workouts on hold due to the virus.

Over the weekend, the Crown Point Babe Ruth baseball all-star teams reported 3 positive test for the virus.

I just dont see schools doing nothing when positive tests pop up. 

It doesnt matter what we think. Schools have liability to consider.

Honest question but how can schools be liable when sending them is an option and not mandatory? At least around where I live E-learning is an option. How can schools be liable when parents CHOOSE to send them?
