    my kid is dealing with this now as a HS senior in her final season. She’s really upset but we are holding out hope they add games and extend the season towards graduation. Her summer is already cut short as she has to report to her college team in July. It’s definitely worse for the college seniors but I think the ncaa will grant waivers for eligibility back

    So, what month did China really jump on this? They're already talking about restarting the machine.

    I think they started admitting it was a thing in Dec. but they tried to hide it for 6 weeks before that. Arrested the first few doctors that started warning about it and kept them jailed to shut them up. One of the first to speak up died from it.

    I referee HS sport, (VB but that season finished in the fall). A lot of kids play multiple sports but often excel at only one, I feel for the ones I've known since they were 5th and 6th graders who now might not get to play their final season as a senior in their better sport.

    Well, my high school track meet, scheduled for tomorrow, is a no go. Most of you know that I am a high school coach. I'm going to have a lot of disappointed kids who have been busting their butts to get better. Hopefully our superintendent will green light some small local meets so that we can compete.

    Yeah and I have my suspicions about why a 31 yo doc died from this early on when their hospitals weren't overwhelmed yet.

    Ugh, just got a call. I was supposed to judge a cadet competition tomorrow (military courtesy, drill, robotics, etc.) and they just shut us down. It was well less than 250 people and no close contact. What a load of crap.

    The good news is all the people I buy from online are sending messages telling me how much they care and how they are doing to make sure they don't spread the virus to me over the internet.

    It has been hilarious.

    Airlines first, then the rental care companies and hotels.

    Now I am getting shit from Macy's, Freaky's Head Shop, Freddy's Hamburgers, and even the damn park service telling me they will be dispensing sanitizer and masks to the elk (that last part was a joke. :D )

    I just read the NCAA is giving the spring student athletes affected 1 additional year of eligibility.
