A Chargers player saying "our stadium"? Get real scrub and take a seat. That's the Rams house.

Since we own the place, I think it’s reasonable to expect our roommate to put out.

In whatever that means in this freaking stadium arrangement.

A second construction worker at the SoFi Stadium development in Inglewood has tested positive for COVID-19, according to an internal email by the joint venture overseeing the project. Mandatory temperature checks are being instituted for workers on site.
The email, sent Tuesday by Turner-AECOM Hunt and reviewed by The Times, said the person last worked March 29 on two parking lots at the 298-acre project.
“The worker was located in an isolated area outside the building performing backfill operations in Parking Lots F & G,” the email said. “The individual had not at any time entered the building or used any of its common areas.”
The worker is “receiving care and recovering,” according to the email. Co-workers who had “close contact” with the worker are in self-quarantine and equipment and facilities the worker used are being disinfected.

“PLEASE NOTE,” one sentence of the email said, using all capital letters, “THE PROJECT REMAINS OPEN TO WORK WITHOUT RESTRICTION.”
A spokesman for the joint venture didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

SoFi Stadium construction on course, but completion date not assured

April 2, 2020
SoFi is a $5-billion stadium that is scheduled to open in late July with a Taylor Swift concert and will be home to the NFL’s Rams and Chargers. It and other major construction projects in California have been exempt from Gov. Gavin Newsom’s stay-at-home order because they are considered critical infrastructure, although last week six Bay Area counties moved to prohibit most commercial and residential projects.



The Inglewood site’s construction managers have instituted safety measures that include requiring workers to stay at least six feet from one another, increasing the number of toilets and hand-washing stations, having nonessential personnel work from home, and telling workers to stay home if they have a cough, fever or difficulty breathing.
The first worker on the project known to have contracted COVID-19, announced March 29, is an ironworker whose job was in an assembly area outside of the stadium structure. Another worker was a presumptive positive for COVID-19, but workers were told in an email from construction project managers the test came back negative.
Some of the estimated 3,000 workers on the project remain uneasy, saying social distancing is difficult, if not impossible, while doing their jobs correctly.
“There’s still people all over the place gathering,” an ironworker on the project said Tuesday.
The worker spoke on the condition they not be identified because they feared losing their job.
Some workers have been issued N95 masks by their subcontractors while others have taken to using handkerchiefs or similar cloth items to cover their faces.
Starting Wednesday evening, according to a second internal email reviewed by The Times, all employees on the project will have their temperature taken with noncontact thermometers at six access points to the site.
“This additional measure will help sustain business continuity and ensure compliance with contractual and regulatory obligations,” the email said, listing bus drivers, company officials, consultants, escorts, inspectors, visitors and workers as among those who will be subject to testing.

SoFi Stadium construction continues amid coronavirus pandemic: ‘Everyone is a little nervous’

March 30, 2020
If an individual’s temperature is 100 degrees or higher, they will have a secondary screening five to 10 minutes later in a “stand by area” and be required to list their work locations and individuals they interacted with during the previous 14 days. If their temperature remains elevated, they are required to stay home until their temperature is normal for 72 hours without the use of medication. It’s unclear whether workers would be paid during the absence.
Workers can opt out of having their temperature taken, but won’t be allowed to work.
The second email encouraged major trades to stagger start times for workers, mandated anyone testing positive for COVID-19 to report it to their employer and instructed employees to “leave the work site directly” when their shift ends.
“This procedure will continue until the CDC and medical experts declare that we are all safe,” the email said.

Considerin around 2 tenths of one percent of the population is positive for the virus, odds are a couple more will test positive out of the 3500. But we don't know when these were infected and how many co-workers were exposed. So it seems at the moment its impossible to know just yet.

I haven't had a day time landing at LAX for a while now. I do have one on the schedule next month. I hope to be able to share more pics!

SWA , Don't believe we've met, so let's just be up front and honest with one another.
I'm looking to get 120 pounds of cocaine , Four 70+ year old hookers, two wiener dogs in clown suits and one, really big
chandelier across state lines.
Can you help me make this happen?

Disappointed in Demoff. Where the H is the social distancing bro? Looks like these guys were spitting on each other.

In terms of the stadium, I am curious to see when it opens. Even if we start warming up the economy soon, the concert/large gathering events will be last to the party. So with no Taylor Swift opening, and potentially cancelling/moving meaningless exhibition games, and locking in the regular season schedule with away games early, and home games in the 3rd weekend or later, the stadium technically doesn't have to open for 2 months later than currently scheduled.

Just a thought.

It didn’t say the stadium wasn’t going to be ready, it said that Taylor Swift cancelled. Big difference.
True that....true that. So I wonder what kind of penalties there will be for not having the stadium done on time for the company building SoFi.

I wonder if now they’ve prioritized locker rooms, field prep, media requirements, player and ownership facilities.... seems they could get it ready for a fan-less experience at a minimum. (y)

I KNEW it wasn't gonna be ready!
So Stan KNEW it wouldn't be ready so he created Covid-19 as a diversion!!!........

I think it's all irrelevant at this point. I seriously don't think we will be sitting in that stadium or any come September. Regardless if they play or not because of Covid restrictions.

Looking at that last drone video it looks like they have by far the majority of the seats in!!

I count four uninstalled panels outside the stadium. Probably one of the last few, if not the last ones. Too bad that there isn't going to be a lot of people in the stadium to enjoy.

Again, lets remember the rule. All opposing defenses must maintain safe distancing
