DireBump Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 If colleges aren’t playing football, do you guys think this will lead to high school sports being canceled as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 The people who are totally losing it about them cancelling the season is it for selfish purposes. Are you guys just upset that you won't be able to watch football and be entertained. I was like that at first when they canceled the NCAA tournament but realize all I was thinking about was me losing the chance to watch my favorite sporting event. I thought all of this was being over blown and not as bad as they say. After having the virus and the months it took me to start feeling back to normal I can see how bad this can be.

I feel like it's pretty easy to see why I don't want the season canceled. And it has absolutely ZERO to do with me. My football playing days are done. You understand the fact you went through that doesn't change hardly anything for a 16 year old at my HS correct? Now I'm soo sooooo happy you made it through that and please understand I'm being sincere. I havent told anyone this because I'm just now semi healthy.. I spent the night in the hospital with a bacterial infection in my stomach. Threw up 80 times last week, had 5 IVs, lost 25lbs and missed 4.5days of work, and 5 football practices. We can get sick/hurt/whatever in ANYTHING we do. Anything. I'm a healthy 30 year old and that brought me to my knees last week. We understand the risk, its worth it. Covid will not spread anymore by playing football then if the kids weren't playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the kids are 18-22 basically there are a lot of other higher risk things for them to be harmed by out there than Covid. For instance car crashes, drugs, suicide. Let the kids play if they wanna opt out fine still honor there scholarship but give them the choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5 championships Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 Also I’m not sure why we are playing AAU games then if it’s so awful. 99.4 percent survival rate and we are shutting down the country. The survival rate is even higher for everyone 25 and under. Has anything gone wrong with high school kids playing AAU right now? Don’t think so. Political agenda by one party to keep everything shut down. Can’t wait till November 3rd. I’m guessing a lot of it will go away after that.

I am glad you are feeling better and hope you don't have to go through it again. I have seen lately that younger people have died from the virus but I agree most of the deaths are elderly. I know there was a healthy 9 year old Florida girl who died from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indykev Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 I think they are seeing whats going on with MLB with the travel. Of the 19 positive Marlins 0 got sick. I hope they understand that when making the call. If they play in the spring i hope they bring back the smaller schools who really need the money and they play the original schedule.

IU Scott Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 You can blame anyone you want but if the people would have done what they were ask to do at first we might not still be in this situation. You really think college football would be cancelled if there was not a huge risk. They would try to play at about any cost because they will lose so much money. The schools make up the NCAA and these schools are going to take a huge hit to their budgets. They are not just cancelling the season if they didn't feel it was necessary.
