Couldn't pay me to go to an arena, on a plane and especially on a ship.

My question is wtf with these municipalities banning gatherings over x# of people. How is 250 or 1000 less dangerous? If one person in a gathering of 10 gives it to one person who then goes to a 249 person gathering and gives it to 7 etc it's still being spread.

What you're talking about is basically martial law, no?

FWIW, unless you have underlying health issues -- which I am pretty sure you do not as you're still young and etc. -- you will be fine. It's just going to be like a mild cold at most.

I think at this point for things to end up working out the league will need to finish this season to not effect the draft and the fact teams made trades in preperation for the playoffs. Even if that means playing the rest of the season from Jun-Aug. Then take a break and play a shortened season that everyone will be aware of ahead of time next year.

Sadly it was only a matter of time. Frankly I think more players are going to test positive sooner than later. This will not help the league get started back up anytime soon

Oil/Flames lay off staff: https://www.tsn.ca/edmonton-oilers-c...acks-1.1461838

This is the sh*t that gets me: So these two franchises, leech off their local governments to fork over MILLIONS to help pay for their new arenas or they throw a hissyfit and threaten to relocate. And despite the free money on trees handed out, they still go and cut work for people who need the $$$$ in these hard times.

F*ck these teams man.

Unreal. Katz meanwhile continues to snort his nose away with his drug problem and laugh it up in his big-time mansions, properties, and $$$$ but can't pay a few bucks to those who need it?
