Re: Coronavirus

Here is an excellent site that I have been referring to for the last few weeks from Johns Hopkins University.

Click on the tabs under the windows for more views of useful information.

Click and drag to move the map around.

And scroll in and out to view smaller communities...click on the red dots for up to date information...and it is constantly updated frequently.

Re: Coronavirus

Even if you can’t share the NCAA’S blithe assumption that there will be something recognizable as “college” next spring, together with beach volleyball scholarships, you can still distract yourself with what ifs? For instance, what if a NEWHA autobid runs the table in 2030? In any case, east coast baseball fans will get a kick out of the new A.D. in this piece, the colorful distracter-in-chief himself, Bobby Valentine. A few short weeks ago this would have been a feel good story about the growth of the women’s game.

Valentine has been in that position for a few years now. And has done a very good job for Sacred Heart.

Looks like it's flattening a bit. Here in small town WI people when in public places like grocery stores don't seem to concerned about things....bringing kids grocery shopping, no gloves or masks, HS aged kids running around the store. It's all pretty dumb and irresponsible.

The crisis is getting really bad in the US.

Did you hear?

Exxon and Mobil had to lay off 25 congressmen.

HAHA. It's funny that low gas prices are awesome for our pocketbooks but bad for our 401K's. I never dreamt cheap gas would be the considered a bad thing. When we took the kids to Yellowstone, or tried to before our van broke down, gas was like $4.50 a gallon back then.

A week ago the Ivy League denied granting an extra year of eligibility to its spring athletes and since then Harvard, Yale and Princeton have denied those athletes the option of withdrawing from school to preserve their eligibility. The Washington Post reported over 90 Ivy athletes had already entered the transfer portal.

This, of course, doesn't affect hockey, but relates to earlier discussion.

An utterly horrible, unfathomable decision, IMO. I'm angered and disappointed by it. I hope the athletes involved can find new 'homes' for their delayed senior seasons. Their gain, and Wisconsin's loss.

It does get difficult for coaches to take on Fr when there will be a whole other class of 5th year Sr's still on rosters. And if you are a Fr, you may lose a whole season of playing time to the 5th yr Sr, but in the end life is all about how you handle deflected shots and I am very disappointed UW is doing this. To go from thinking you had a second chance to play your Sr year to getting it yanked out from underneath you AGAIN is just a bad sad deal.
 
Re: Coronavirus

This whole situation stinks for everyone. But if the schools keep the seniors and already have next years freshmen ( who btw lost their senior season of high school)...the teams become very large and people will not play. That’s not fair either, and what do you next year, and the year after.....when does it end? Or do you only do it for all-Americans. Again crappy situation.

Actually, neither college or high school lost their respective seasons...
 
Re: Coronavirus

The way this corona virus is destroying the economy, there may be no jobs for the graduating seniors to go to. Grad school may not be a bad idea if they can get money to help pay for that.
