As California loosens stay-at-home orders and moves to re-open several businesses, Gov. Gavin Newsom expressed that restarting sports with fans in attendance remains a daunting challenge.

“It’s difficult to imagine a stadium that’s filled until we have immunity and until we have a vaccine,” Newsom said.

Guaran-damn-tee if Trump loses in November, that all goes by the wayside.

Same as the way “homeless” or “racism” goes away when there is a Democrat in office.

We still had a baseball season during WWI and Spanish flu. So why can’t we play ball?

Chargers and Rams may not get into their new stadium this year.

And there are 5 major league baseball teams in California.

And many college sports teams, minor league baseball, and other stadium events which will be canceled.

It will be interesting, if the rest of the country is opening up.and sports events happen , but some states such as California are holdouts. Would Calif teams play all road games in that case?

Who knows?

Fans can decide if they want to take the risk.

Just like Dr. Fauci said about Tinder dates.

I think we need to proceed as though a vaccine may never be available and learn to live with the notion that this virus may be with us for sometime. The quoted time frames of 18 to 24 months are just posited guesses really designed to try and and pacify a panicky public. Economically speaking, we don’t have that much time to produce one as the moneys needed to fund such a vaccine will run out due to a complete destruction of the western economy. You need to produce wealth to maintain both health and wealth.

Fauci was not able to make an Hiv vaccine in 30 years and corona virus species vaccine attempts in the past have not worked. I think we should put into place smart rules about disease mitigation and then get back to work! We can live and die at least on our feet or we can die miserably in our caves...but no magic potions are in the offing for the time being. As a society we are going to have to slog thru the mud and from time to time mourn our losses.

I think you might be safer to go sit in a stadium, than go and do God knows what with a stranger from Tinder.

Here’s what I think will happen. All sports players will compete using online gaming and fans will pay to watch them./s

This is their new thing, we can’t do anything until we have a vaccine. These bastards will next be requiring everyone to get a vaccine. Where the hell is Barr in this? This is getting entirely out of control.

Democrats just want to keep their states closed to destroy the economy and defeat Trump in November. There was never any need to close anything even for one day as this covid-19 or corona virus was no more deadly than the other corona viruses namely the common cold:

Yes the family of corona viruses are the common cold viruses. Yes new ones form all the time but never has one become a world killer ,ditto for the flu viruses.

Democrats should just come out and say it: “If Trump wins in November we will work to punish America and keep you locked down until 2024.”

Per a MERS vaccine study any type of coronavirus vaccine is not likely in the near future.

Racist...

Professional football and basketball players are overwhelmingly Black.

I think professional baseball players are majority Black and Hispanic.

California Sporting cities/fans will be going against against the criminally insane Nazi Newscum! The Covidictator!

Chargers and Rams may not get into their new stadium this year. The 49ers not playing this fall!

There are 5 major league baseball teams in California.

Many big college sports teams, minor league baseball, and other stadium events which will be canceled.

Pro soccer and hockey teams setting out this year.

It will be interesting, if the rest of the country is opening up.and sports events happen. Then some states such as California are holdouts.

Would Californicator teams play all road games in that case?

Can the cities/counties in California afford to lose the income and taxes from these sporting games.

Will the players, coaches, owners and fans sue the criminally insane Nazi Newscum! The Covidictator, and his Covid thugs.
