Hockey Ping!
(let me know if you want on or off the ping list)
Baseball wants empty stadiums in AZ. Of course no play no pay. I really missed the Masters
All of the ice has melted around me, though we may get another moderate layer of snow yet the is week.

I see no reason why sports can’t start now. Temperature checks. If your temperature is high, then you get a test for covid-19. If positive, isolation for 14 days.
But yeah. No fans for a while.
Playoffs were meant to start in about 3 days I believe.
I think they’ve put the season on ice.
The league that goes first reaps big rewards.
In AZ. we’re salivating that all of the MLB could play in Phoenix, every day, all day.....for a couple of months at least.
MLB realizes, too, the benefit of being the 1st live sports on TV.
It does amaze me that college football and the NFL have their knickers in a wad about playing in Sept. ???? 6 months from now ?
What a bunch of Debbie Downers. Wimps. Disgusting pessimists. Glass 3/4 empty.
DjT’s hunch will save the world.
I hope they can just go straight into the playoffs instead of trying to hold all the rest of the regular season games.
..drop the puck and let’s go !
Even when they lift the siege, are there a lot of people who will rush to games, movie theaters, plays, concerts? It may be a long while before large crowds are a thing again. I love hockey but I will probably digest it on channel 157.

Players already wear face shields (except Jumbo Joe Thornton).
They may have to wash their hands right after the playoff handshake lines, though.

There was talk of playing in North Dakota. No joke.
Play a few challenge games for the nhl teams on the bubble. Then playoffs. As soon as the new cases/deaths from covid starts dropping, let fans in the stands. This will happen soon, maybe before June.
The players want to get paid, so let’s find a way to earn checks while not read really delivering the product. I don’t intend to watch any sport until these social justice warriors, and their milquetoast leagues go back to real play. I refuse to watch a game until I can watch one live.
Think about it. NHL players have very little exposed skin. Put a surgical mask on them and they should be good to go. All clothing washed after every game and all equipment like sticks and pucks wiped down.
They ought to be ready more quickly than the NBA.
