This. Some people would wrap a messy diaper around their face if it had (insert NFL team logo) on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSF Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see all states with large events including July 4th potentially impacted. I wonder in Reno about Hot August Nights (early August) and The Rib Cook Off ( Labor Day) being called off as well. Bet on all of those events be canceled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headbutt Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 A guy on the Ram Club board who apparently knows some of the coaching staff at Washington has posted that UW players have been told that they will report in June. Obviously an internet rumor, but an encouraging one. I've never seen anything to make me think this guy is a flake, so who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fly in the ointment will be some schools being closed, while others are open. You almost need a consensus (at least within a conference) for everybody to be open. Governors and presidents are not going to make that decision based on football. What do we do if California, Utah, and New Mexico (for instance) don't open colleges but the other states do?

I would think they were making that decision based on being sued if everyone contracted the virus and people started dying. Not a good look imho.

Not a good look imho. Yeah, liability will be a big part of it. Loss of revenue will obviously be considered as well. I'll be surprised if the AFA closes for a semester. IMO if your going to open any schools, universities are the most likely candidate. Not a closed population by any means, but much more closed than K-12 for instance. Also a very resilient population regarding this virus. I think there's still a lot that has to happen in order for colleges to open, but they do seem to be the first in line to me. My point is that if every school in the MWC opens but one, it still kills the conference schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe there will be a vaccine, maybe if all the Universities allocated resources to finding a cure that would be a good investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There won't be a cure probably ever, that much is in stone, it is after all a deadly version of the common cold. How long have they been looking for that cure? There won't be a vaccine by August either. We don't know what there will be though. I'm not predicting that colleges will be open this fall. Just saying that they are far and away the most likely type of schools to open first and that if they don't all open at the same time it pretty much f**ks football.

I think it just means that each team would get an extra bye when scheduled to play AFA or whatever school is not open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coog kev Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Are you kidding somebody? Of course we will. Kentucky just moved its home opener to Thursday opening looong Labor Day weekend so that it does not compete with the Kentucky Derby on its moved date to first Saturday of September (as opposed to the Derby's traditional First Saturday of May). Heck ya..we're gonna do it. One way or another...funky stuff and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
