Cornell is making plans to test all students once to twice a week. They’ve even taken over part of the vet college to use as a lab.

It’s in a world of fiscal hurt.

And is demanding federal taxpayers make it all better

UConn canceling is an act of mercy to its beleaguered fans. Their record the past 3 seasons was 6-30.


Uconn is likely done and will drop football in the next year or two.

I agree with you. One major team or school has a breakout they will cancel the season. How can you have a season where teams will basically be canceling at minimum 2 games with a positive test?

Nadal and the top female tennis player have pulled out of the US Open because of the virus.

ALL sports might as well quit for a year or so..................

I’m starting to suspect any season we get cannot be played until the Spring.

COULDN’T CARE LESS.

Country about to enter ABYSS if Biden wins. WHO cares what some spoiled prima donnas do on a field.

ESPN is cratering. People aren’t watching MLB or NBA.

The NBA is beholden to China. A worthless slug like Lebron James stands silent as China embraces SLAVE labor, operates Concentration Camps, and INFECTS the world with a deadly virus.

The real college courses:

1. Beer Bong 101. ... Understanding the funnel.

2. How to be stoned and graduate, The freshman handbook.

3. Spring Break and the Art of getting laid.

4. Safe spaces. What they mean and how to exploit your Snowflake insecurities.

5. White racists and the BLM. How to succumb to your whiteness.

I think you may be right. I am in the horse world. Almost every big event is cancelled or postponed. They actually have cancelled huge shows in progress because someone tested positive. Add in public officials scheduling events in government owned facilities and then say “no” at the last moment and you have a huge mess. This is another industry that may never recover.
