No Other Sports Going On

And pool is sometimes called billiards. Now that we’ve settled that different sports can be called different things, l’ve never seen a reaction like this to an infectious disease. It’s almost like we’re treating it like the like a disease that turns people into zombies.
We are not only cancelling sporting events, but also rock shows, antique shows, quilting gatherings and girl scout meetings. This is going to affect some serious bottom lines if it continues for a chunk of time.
It almost feels like a trial run, or a fire drill for when the real zombie apocalypse virus hits us.

This is serious if we did nothing it would overload our current hospital systems. True most people would hardly notice getting it but it spreads like wildfire and the elderly sector is particularly vunerable. My wife is SO glad she retired two years ago from the hospital.
On the effect on all business particularly on smaller businesses will be significant. Governments around the world are getting prepared with billions in necessary aid.
This is like preparing for a world war without the war. Stay tuned.

Actually, pool and billiards, and snooker are different games, though they are played clearly on similar surfaces, similar balls, cues, etc. but they do have different rules.

Well....I don't know about zombies, but serious pandemics have hit this planet before. The Black Plague wiped out 1/3rd of the population. The Spanish Flu during WWI (Thanks Nero) killed 500 million....many more than the war actually did. Don't forget AIDS, which killed 25 million worldwide, but of course people didn't care about that because it supposedly only killed "gay people". Two that I know of from my high school class died of it.

I hope you know why it was called the Spanish Flu, because if not you're loading a gun ready to backfire.

I saw documentary on television that believes that the so called 'spanish flu' actually started at an army base in the United states during WW1.

First cases were in mainland US, and it ended up being called the Spanish Flu because during the WWI it was the only country reporting it's evolution, as other countries taking part in the war almost didn't give any notice about it.

PBS had a great show about this WWI era pandemic influenza.
This is what our government and those across the world are trying to combat now.

People have mentioned Golf is still going on. It's about the only sport I can think of that wouldn't be weird without a crowd. Hell probably better for the golfers themselves to concentrate.

To be honest, I believe the women's tours and the Seniors tours play with very little crowds. Not that they would not like more, they just don't get them.

The Masters is Postponed. Golf ain't goin' on. And NASCAR finally joined in so as not to be the only red necks active.
- I hate going to golf events. You go stand down the fairway where you figure the T-shots will land.....get right against the ropes....great view....and then an entourage of people Inside the ropes come and stand right in friggin' front of you.
Schools are gonna be closed where I live. My daughter has 2 boys. Four and Six. She's gotta go to work. Fortunately my wife (Mrs. Wife) is retired, and we live 2 houses away. (but Maaan, they make a mess of the house before they go home - it's work - but we love 'em to the moon and back)
I'm thinking all of this is the right thing to do. To try and flatten the curve....because as has been said, it could overwhelm the hospitals. (my son works in one....today he said that everyone has to wear a mask now)

Fortunately I have a nice boss. My young twin girls are off school for almost a month and my employer is letting me work from home for the next month with the kids. I'm a computer repair tech so I can remote desktop to work for virus repairs/installs during store hours. But I have to go in after hours and pick up peoples laptops/computers to handle hardware stuff from. It's probably longer hours and more work overall but at least the virus removal stuff is mostly automated. Just wish those assholes in the WH that denied emergency paid medical leave in case me or wife get sick would stop being selfish pieces of shit. We have a week long trip planned for Vegas in early April, but if she even has an abnormal cough (Nurse), she has to take all her PTO which is 14 days (no unpaid leave) for leaving the state, end of story. She maybe even be possibly be quarantined at work. Planned this in April of last year so we may be out hundreds of dollars if we can't get refunds and that's if we don't go. Shit sucks, this current administration sucks, all of this sucks. I want my sports!!!

With no sports to watch or go to, looks like you're all going to have nothing to do now but talk to your wives and kids.

no other sports? Fishing season real soon, camping season real soon, campfires around the firepit season already...
still thinking about a small camper for out west - we love camping in our tent , but not at100 degrees F....
air conditioning would be good in real hot weather....
the other sport is groundhog skeet. That's a team sport.

Great way to wait out this thing !!!!
Meanwhile we have an 14' x 22' covered deck on the back of our house with cable TV, phone, stereo, all of the comforts of home overlooking our big backyard.
Formerly used for NFL, MLB and other sports but nice for watching movies in the afternoon and evening.
A big 3 burner Nat Gas grill for grilling steaks, chicken, ribs, whatever and even installed a whole house backup generator in 2018 to rough it out in bad weather.
Ahhhhhh, self quarantine isn't so bad after all.

Fishing and camping are not sports....unless you compete on like the Bass Masters tour.
Shooting certainly can be...if you are in some kind of competition.
