I'm not surprised that the NBA shut down the season; two Utah Jazz players tested positive. Wouldn't be surprised if the draft was conducted on TV only.

According to Brad Perna at "That's Good Sports," Many of the teams are practicing safety by shutting down offices/activities in respect of the virus.
Bucking the trend, the Patriots ordered Haz Mat suits and told everybody to get the fuck back to work!

I believe the NBA suspended it's games because of the close confinement in the locker rooms, after the one player was discovered to have the virus.

I think as much the large crowds all touching banisters, chairs, concession counters and everything else than the locker room.

This just in:

PornHub shutting down amid coronavirus concerns

Is xhamster staying open?

Asking for a friend.


This whole thing is so stupid. Shutting down the country for a very mild cold virus

Yeah if I were you I'd rethink that.

Initially, it was player safety immediately after the player tested positive for the virus just before gametime. At this point, kinda moot.

Not directed at you @dieterbrock, but I have a couple years on you, and it is NEVER going to change, because the human race is made up primarily of uninformed, self absorbed fuckheads, and fuckheadettes, who don’t give a shit about anything but themselves, and never have, and never will.

Without naming names, there is a single entity in the US responsible for all the discord. Or so the story goes.

So who exactly were all the people buying 20 bottles of Purel, at the expense of the other 18 that would have liked to have a bottle or 2.

Must have been the deplorables

Point is, and ALWAYS will be, it’s about #1, and theirs, and always will be.

Cumbaya.

Personally, I am enjoying the shit out of this whole charade, and am dumping every dime I have into the Market.

I got hurt pretty badly during the last shitstorm, wishing I had a few bucks to invest when the market tanked.

Well it’s tanking again, and I got some bucks.
Thank you Lord, Thank you Jesus.

(I don’t usually drink, but when I do, I post).

It’s hard to imagine the NFL couldn’t adapt the draft.

If you want to “flatten the curve” and accelerate dealing with this, slowing down the way it transmits casually makes sense.

Slow the spread through non essential contact. School will be okay. We can easily get by without sporting events.

But we need hospitals open. Factories open. Stuff like that.
