They are saying SARS is much more dangerous, yet we didn't shut down everything to this level when that crisis came about.

 

SARS while being more dangerous, was much more containable. It took until days after you showed signs to be contagious.  With Covid-19 you are contagious before you show signs.  Given how much feet were drug about this we barely have the ability to test which is part of why there are so few confirmed cases.

Dude you don’t get it then. Someone young and asymptotic could pass it to a kid with cancer or an immunocompromised adult or an elder - this isn’t about the healthy people attending the events. This is about saving our at risk population and keeping our hospitalizations low.

 

To piggyback on this, the rate at which COVID-19 spreads is a concern because if we say half of the population will contract this and just a fraction will be sick enough to be hospitalized, we're still talking about a lot of people. The population of Lincoln is 284k. Half of that is 142k.  1% of that is 1,420.  Is that 1420 people over a month or 3 months or 6 months.  It's about mitigating.

Big 10, AAC, SEC canceling rest of tournaments.

[hskr4life]

Believe we will see the end of college basketball for the year by the time today is over.

[hskr4life]

Gonna get in two jokes here:

 

1. Kevin Cross makes the All-B1G conference team

2. Still hoping to self-quarantine during the first round of the NCAA tourney

On social media-- teams are being pulled off the floor across the US.

KCross AND Cheatham probably.

Looks like they just pulled the ACC teams off the floor from warmups.  

[hskr4life]

At this point-- it only feels right to cancel everything.  ESPN is reporting players stating that they do not want to play.  It just doesn't feel right to move on.

Big East still playing. Jays and St Johns currently letting it fly

You have to wonder how long that will last.  I was wondering if this will be the only day (or session) of boys state basketball too.

Tied for 3rd actually.

Big East is the last man standing.  Looking like MLB will cancel the rest of spring training as early as today.

[hskr4life]

ALL SEC athletics suspended until at least March 30th.

Turns out it looks like we picked the best year to have our worst season ever.

[hskr4life]

Not going to lie... I have the Creighton game on.  Just waiting for teams to get pulled off the floor.

so to be prepared----do we leave the wife and run out the window a la robert carlisle? or do we fight until the last zombie bite?

Probably depends on how old your wife is and how long you have been married

There may not be a second half of the game they're calling.

 

Shouldn't have even started probably.

Whoever let this game start is getting fired.  OK, maybe a little over the top, but come one.  Look at the world around you.  I bet there is no 2nd half.
