Going well so far If it's suspended out of an abundance of caution then it's not a big deal. If it's suspended because a few Phillies players got infected by the Miami Outbreakers then it's a bad sign. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fear is a ton of investors acting like investors and not Mets fans might not be as inclined to spend on players, scouting etc as one whale Mets fan like a Cohen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the media reported every car accident that resulted in death the way they report these Corona cases no one would drive a car because they'd be too scared! 40,000 people die EVERY YEAR in horrific mangled twisted metal. Imagine if every newscast they announced the death, photos of the car, tubes coming out of survivors noses in hospital beds. You'd be a anxious mess everytime you got in your car. The media has people believing that staying home & hiding will make this thing go away, it's not going away. It's everywhere, it's going to make its way through the population like every virus before it. Unions like the NEA are disgustingly using this virus to try & defund Police & have a moritorium to close Charter Schools? WTF? More kids will be domestically abused, or malnourished than what this Virus will kill. We have 350 million people here & the media is always chirping about positive tests, well no sh*t we'll have more positive tests, we'll also test millions more people being asymptomatic. Rational people are losing their minds. Yeah, I almost caught a car accident the other day. Just had heart, lung and kidney damage though. No big deal. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hael Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 The media has done a pretty awful job at reporting where the risks are. Take Florida for instance. There are still lots of cases, but what’s missed is that they put in policies nearly a month ago that has really reduced the acceleration of the spread. That’s a big deal, and indeed we now see finally the cases turning around for them. its this delay effect that’s a real problem for sports. Policies you put in place don’t take effect for nearly three weeks, and if you wait a few days too long you can have catastrophic consequences to your healthcare system and force shutdowns Here is a site that models the R value.. rt.live notice the problem in a lot of states that have small current case counts. Well, be sure that they will be in the news a month from now. They’ll be the new Floridas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BallinPB Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Unfortunately the MLB took this risk of playing outside of a bubble and it's coming back to haunt them. If the Marlins do play again soon, they will be basically fielding a farm lineup two weeks. If they infected a good amount of Phillies then MLB should probably shut down and figure out how to get into a bubble fast if they want to continue playing the season.

EM31 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Hightower just opted out of the season. That makes 5 Patriots apparently. I am guessing that the concern stems not from the initial effects of the virus which young people are overwhelmingly able to beat. The concern may stem from the fact that even among "recovered" people that the effects of the disease can show up on chest X-rays. In other words it it can/does leave permanent damage in some cases. If you are professional athlete and your livelihood depends on being in the top 1% of physical ability/performance what happens if your lungs only leave you with 90% or 95% of the capacity that was there before? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
