I will never understand, take out the politics BS of it first, how some states justify not playing at all while others had a full season w/ playoffs. It's crazy.Seems kind of silly now, doesnt it, that some places didnt play...
I dont know, do some places think they have took the moral high ground on this?I will never understand, take out the politics BS of it first, how some states justify not playing at all while others had a full season w/ playoffs. It's crazy.
I honestly believe some do. For example, this was a newspaper story this past week from the east coast: https://thespun.com/more/top-stories/new-york-times-uconn-college-football-real-national-championI dont know, do some places think they have took the moral high ground on this?
What they did was a kin to throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
There is a built in Massilll0n joke in there, but I will leave it alone....I honestly believe some do. For example, this was a newspaper story this past week from the east coast: https://thespun.com/more/top-stories/new-york-times-uconn-college-football-real-national-champion
I wonder how it would feel to have a full fledged spring season.I am waiting for California to decide if they are playing this spring or not. A friend of mine is a referee out there, and if they refuse to play football this spring like last fall, then he can come out to visit. Apparently, that decision is still up in the air.

You really got me there.The joke is really you.
NC: The baseball season appears to be shifted into summer unless they have always done so. I dunno. From the article -I didn't look at the list, but wondering how football in the spring impacts baseball in the spring. Priorities, I suppose.....
Prayers to Sykotyk.Va starts in Feb. I will be taking in three games the last weekend of that month. Sykotyk and I will be traveling together.
LCF and I are friends. He's a good guy.Prayers to Sykotyk.
Must have lost a bet.
I ignore ladies like him.LCF and I are friends. He's a good guy.
Well, Lloyd and Harry were best of buds.LCF and I are friends. He's a good guy.
Hope you enjoy your basementWilling to bet that there will be no spring sports, including football, this year. The Covid virus is rising and new strains of it are constantly being discovered, some possibly immune from any vaccination. You should be more concerned about football next fall.
And predictions say it's going to be better by the spring. But enjoy your doom and gloom4300 died yesterday from it, should be up to around 5000 a day by the end of the month.

Well, because there was reason enough to believe then that playing could be a public health threat? There wasn't an example of how to play a football season in the pandemic for these states to lean on; it was either "play" and see what happens, or wait.I will never understand, take out the politics BS of it first, how some states justify not playing at all while others had a full season w/ playoffs.

Yes, you're point is true that at the beginning we didn't. But plenty of states playing in August, September, and October with no community spread after a study of over 1,000 games (https://footballscoop.com/news/over...layed-zero-reports-of-community-covid-spread/) or coaching spread (https://footballscoop.com/news/one-...-on-sports-returning-covid-and-mental-health/) but some of these states still wouldn't budge. Why not go back and look at the provided research and then make another decision?Well, because there was reason enough to believe then that playing could be a public health threat?

Fair. I don't think it really has anything to do with sanctimony as thavoice suggested in post #6; it just boils down to assumption of risk and how individual states are willing to go about it. I'm of the opinion that it was a good idea for Ohio to play football in hindsight and as it happened, although before the season started I thought it could be a bad idea.Yes, you're point is true that at the beginning we didn't.
